An unfamiliar journey
September 12th, 2011 · Comments Off · Going underground, Speechless, Uncategorized
I’m trying to get to an event. It’s an evening event, part work and part leisure, and I really want to get there, especially since it’s the first in a regular series which I am hoping to attend. It involves a very straightforward train journey – one stop down the line, just five minutes away, then a 20-minute wait, then a change onto a branch line. The whole journey should take 40 minutes and this will be the first time that I have made it.

Where are the limits of humour? And how to solve the perennially vexed question of good taste versus free speech – the one that caused the creators of Jerry Springer: The Opera such trouble? These are questions raised after a union representing Tube drivers announced it was planning to picket the premiere of a film that makes a joke of people falling under trains.
