For more on marking an answer as the "Best Answer", please visit our FAQ.Mellow Doubt is available as part of a collection of short stories called Magic. I've only ever seen Bampot Central on the internet. As you're obviously a fan...what do you think of the casting of James "Cold Feet"Nesbitt as Jack Parlabane in Quite Ugly One Morning? I was a bit gutted, as I'd always imagined Jack as a wiry fair headed bloke (I think the books say as much) and I don't really see Nesbitt in the role at all. I'd fancied Dougie Henshall (who did Jacks voice in radio version of Bampot Central). Maybe even Robert Carlyle.... Ah well...we'll wait and see, maybe he'll be great!??
Where can I get the Magic book from?
I think James Nesbitt is an ok choice, he wouldnt have been the first person I'd have thought of, but he could be good. Robert Carlyle would indeed have been a better choice. "Quite ugly..." wasnt one of my fave books, but im really interested to see what they do with it.
Hi Sherby
Book is indeed called Magic. Edited by Sarah Brown (chancellors wife) and Gil McNeil. Special foreword by JK Rowling, as some money raised from sale goes to National Council of One Parent families. First published in 2002, by Bloomsbury. ISBN 0 7475 5746 2. Think I got this copy from Borders Books last year, so it should still be readily available. Some of the other stories are quite good too. HTH! x
