For the interest of Mervyn Peake fans the world over . . . Channel 4 TV has filmed `Mr Pye' on location in Sark with the co-operation of (at least) Clare Peake (+ all the Sarkese!). It stars Derek Jacobi (of `I Claudius') and Judy Parfitt as Mr Pye and Miss Dredger. The first episode is being shown next Sunday and I'll post a mini-review in a week's time. It seems likely that if it is a success PBS stations in the USA may buy it. Stay tuned . . . -- Peter Kendell <pete@stc.UUCP> ...!mcvax!ukc!stc!pete "The ultimate expression of law isn't order; it's prison"
