[pressgang] There Are Crocodiles

[Vince Deehan]

Thanks Claire. I enjoyed reading your post.

I know what you mean about Sarah's hair :) Sorry Kelda, if you ever see
this.

Kelda Holmes has lovely hair now. If you search her name in Google, you
will see
some great photos of her taken in recent years.

There are two voice clips on the above link.
Both are really great.

The one marked 'Narration' seems to have lots of different scenes with Kelda
doing a whole range of very different characters and accents and there
seems to be
some Shakespeare in there too. She sounds amazing.

Regarding Lynda being alive at the end of the final episode. Is it obvious?
Can you explain further?
