| Evidence: | Transcript of interview: 'He [her father] gave me a copy of Lou Wallis's Ben Hur in a slip case and I put in my diary which you’ll find there [points to MS diary] that I was very much enjoying it but that was completely untrue – I only read the first few pages and just couldn’t get into it and it was still in its slip case when I think I gave it to a charity shop not very long ago!' |
