"A wonderful combination of deadpan English comedy and surreal farce." -- A. S. Byatt "A tribute to the unsung and quintessentially English heroism of imperfect people." -- New Criterion

When British listeners tuned in to the BBC's Nine O'Clock News in the middle of 1940, they had no idea what human dramas--and follies--were unfolding behind the scenes. Targeted by enemy bombers, the BBC had turned its concert hall into a dormitory for both sexes, and personal chaos rivaled the political. Amidst the bombs and broadcasts two program directors fight for power while their younger female assistants fall prey to affairs, abandonment, and unrequited love. Reading this intimate glimpse behind the scenes of the BBC in its heyday, "one is left with the sensation," William Boyd wrote in London Magazine, "that this is what it was really like."

This new edition features an introduction by Mark Damazer, along with new cover art.

Chihuahua puppy loves these!
Pattern Name: Strip, Size: 3 Ounce (Pack of 1)
My little 13-week-old, 2.4-lb Chihuahua pup loves these chews. They are the perfect size for her tiny mouth. I hold them for her, and when enough gets chewed that it could break off and possibly cause a choking hazard, I cut that soft part off with the scissors. -I would never give them to her unsupervised. -Will purchase again.

I take 3 pills , sleep like a baby
Size: 240 Count (Pack of 1)
Melatonin works well for me as a sleep aid. I take 3 pills, and I usually fall asleep within about 30 minutes. It helps me relax and fall asleep faster, especially on nights when my mind is active or I have trouble winding down. The effect feels gentle, not harsh. It is helpful for occasional use, but I don’t rely on it every night.

Pretty good
Size: 240 Count (Pack of 1)
Pretty good, I like the taste but it can be a bit strong on the last bite. With the gummies I normally take one ten mg but with these I feel like I need two
