letter to editor of tv weekly
dear sir/ madam.
i read alison burnham’s review of when we were 12 ,and i do not agree with her. i thought the programme was wonderful –i found he old news pictures really interesting---they helped to bring to life the stories the people were telling.
the programme reminds me of many things from my own childhood. for example, one day when i was about five, i was going to school on the bus by myself( this was the late 1960s). my mother had given me exactly the right money for a return ticket . i held out my hand with the money in it----one big coin only and she gave me a ticket, but it was a pink one for a single journey. i needed a white one for a return journey, but i was too frightened to say anything. when school finished for the day, i couldn’t catch the bus home----- i had to walk. as a grown-up, whenever i’ve been in a situation where i need to say something or take some action, this early memory of my bus ride comes back to me, and i’m able to take control of the situation.
