I totally share Helen's excitement about the forthcoming Enid Blyton biopic.
Blyton was my favourite author as a child and is still such an inspiration and she was also such an interesting character. I read something once about her writing methods that fascinated me: she basically saw her books in her head as if they were films and simply transcribed them, typing at a ferocious rate.
I think Helena Bonham Carter will do an amazing job. I'm really looking forward to watching this autumn. [via Daily Mail]

Wow she looks fantastic. Just seen HBC in Harry Potter this evening and she couldn't look more different.
