Programme Introduction 节目简介
也许你印象中的英国人都是循规蹈矩彬彬有礼。但英国历史上也不乏我行我素的奇特人物。BBC 最新推出的六集系列将为大家介绍六位古怪的英国人– English Eccentrics.
In this first episode, we find out about the romantic novelist Barbara Cartland 芭芭拉·卡特兰德。 She was famous for her pink clothes and heavy make up and the amazing number of books she wrote – over seven hundred!
What colour was her dog? How many pills did she take a day? And what does it mean to say that someone stands out from the crowd? Listen to the programme to find out the answers to these questions.
