A great read www.theguardian.com/tv-and-radio...
An oral history of Twin Peaks by its unforgettable stars: ‘I put my waitress uniform on and began bawling’
Mystery, magic and mayhem reigned behind the scenes as well as on screen. Mädchen Amick, Joan Chen, Dana Ashbrook and others recall the making of the beloved TV series – and the genius of David Lynch

What I love about Pepys is you can read all of his stuff in the voice of Frankie Howerd.
By coach by invitacon to my uncle Fenner’s, where I found his new wife, a pitiful, old, ugly, illbred woman in a hatt, a midwife. Here were many of his, and as many of her relations, sorry, mean people.

The first time I ever travelled first class on a train, I was amazed that they had complimentary chocolate bars on the tables. I ate mine & then the man whose chair I was sat in came back & demanded to know why I had eaten his chocolate bar.
Mortified.
