Mentioning the Forsyte Saga TV series in my last post piqued my curiosity about how it's various stars went on in life and art. I found this excellent website. Although it's not actually up to date having been put together ten years ago it gives a good idea of the impact of the series as does the Guardian's obituary of Nyree Dawn Porter that it points you to (the Times obit isn't there).

I missed the notice of her death when it happened since it didn't cause much of a stir in Egypt. I must sometime have a look at the 2002 remake by Granada. That didn't make much of a stir wherever I was then either.
