Oh dear, PlomBear!

Miss Peters would've had a conniption fit if you had spelt 'Malory' in that sloppy way when you were a pupil there.

And Miss Grayling would've been deeply disappointed and saddened that you had Let Yourself Down.

Love Malory Towers! I saw the stage play last year, it was fantastic!

Bit apprehensive it'll be on TV though. The play was just different enough in terms of plot and the sets obviously weren't full-on so my own imaginative version from the books is intact. Do you think watching it on TV will ruin that? I've held it in my head for about 30 years!

Only found out about this and the play earlier today. Reading the books with my daughter and also just found out there are more books than we have. I loved them when I was her age

Yeah, there are six more following Felicity through the rest of her Towers days. By Anne Digby? I did read them, and they're in much the same vein, as you'd expect, and your daughter would enjoy them. But the originals are the best!
