Then the star explodes; the wheel makes poor men rich; the butterfly mates and dies."

-- Clive Barker

So it can be done, but I think it can be done on a really large scale. The television of Dennis Potter, most of it hasn't been seen in this country. And that's just one example - it's a very obscure example. There's plenty of great TV out there. There's more crap - but there's great TV, too.”
