Description
"The Secret Diary of Adrian Mole, Aged 13 3/4," Jan 1-15, 1981. Say hello to our new book, the Sue Townsend classic! Jody and Alison chat about 1981's events, music, movies, and TV... UK-style. Welcome to the year of John McEnroe's Wimbledon tirade, Charles and Diana, The Yorkshire Ripper, Bucks Fizz on Eurovision, and the teen who tried to shoot the Queen. Adrian starts the new year with some lofty resolutions, decides he's an intellectual, and writes a poem for Malcolm Muggeridge. Charlie runs away, Nigel shows off his tan, and Pandora enters the scene. There's also some classic British adverts and truly awful English accents (please forgive us). Super duper thank you to our newest Patron, Lisa W.! It's a Judy Blume book club. Join us every week!
