Remake, Remake

Thanks to Tim Blair, who is collecting the quotes of last year together, I found this makeover masterpiece:

“When I need to work up my nerve to write a tough column, I try to think of myself as Emma Peel in a black leather catsuit, giving a kung fu kick to any diabolical mastermind who merits it.”


That's the New York Times's Maureen Dowd running roughshod over a very English icon. How did I miss that?

Dowd may be hated by many - but that's good, we like a feisty journalist. And Emma Peel is always nothing but feisty. It all sounded like just the right moment to juxtapose the two through Google Image Search. But no....there's no need at atll



With thanks to the very fine Yankee Pot Roast
