Proof positive that there's life after wallpaper

Article Abstract:

Two new books are reviving controversy about Lord Irvine, the Lord Chancellor. In the diaries of Janet Jones, wife of former Labour leader of the House of Lords Lord Richard, he is portrayed very negatively, including having taken on too many responsibilities. In contrast, there is no new information in Dominic Egan's unauthorized biography. It is clear that his temperament has been refined during two years in government, while his power base has been restored and possibly even increased. He has the full support of Prime Minister Tony Blair, and this has allowed him to devote his attention to unfinished business.

Playing for cameras

Article Abstract:

It may take some time before television cameras are allowed inside courts in England, according to television director and producer Nick Catliff. He was permitted to film in a Scottish court, and this led to 'The Trial,' which gained critical approval. He has undertaken a similar project in England, where he used real barristers and solicitors and a real judge, but had to reconstruct a case, rather than filming directly in court. He feels that the public image of English courts is damaged by the fact that television cameras are not allowed inside.
