Programme Introduction 節(jié)目簡(jiǎn)介

也許你印象中的英國(guó)人都是循規(guī)蹈矩彬彬有禮。但英國(guó)歷史上也不乏我行我素的奇特人物。BBC 最新推出的六集系列將為大家介紹六位古怪的英國(guó)人– English Eccentrics.

In this first episode, we find out about the romantic novelist Barbara Cartland 芭芭拉·卡特蘭德。 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.
