I love the Adrian Mole books and I also enjoyed the TV version some years ago. Memorable were Julie Walters as Adrian's mum and Bill Fraser as Adrian's elderly friend Bert(?).
RIP Sue Townsend.

She was a great writer - the Adrian Mole books are nothing short of brilliant - a very sad loss at a comparatively young age Sad
