Television | The line of beauty


One year ago I watched this fantastic BBC series that my sister Jessica owns on DVD: The Line of Beauty. It's based on the 2004 Booker Prize-winning novel by Alan Hollinghurst. It's the story of love, class, sex and money in the Thatcherite 1980s, complete with gay romance and political scandal.

The soundtrack is also brilliant, which sadly you cannot buy, (I created a playlist for it instead).
