Quote:Yes, I know this is fiction and all made up and so on, but with Sidebottom being a classics don I did wonder whether he might have a secret theory on the matter - or perhaps he was just chancing his arm...If you look at the impact of Rosemary Sutcliff's 'Eagle of the Ninth' on British conciousness, it might be expected to see more fiction as a source of 'collective memory'... :wink:
