Oxford, 1968

Frederica
John Ottokar

John comes down to Oxford for the weekend. They spend much of the time making love.

John asks her "What are we going to do? We can't live apart like this, it tears you up."

"And she did not know what to answer, because she saw that she was happy to live apart, to have times of sex like this, naked, total, fierce times, and times completely without out.."

"Don't try and shut me in one room. If we do that to each other, it's the beginning of the end." [Frederica]

I like the non-stereotypic nature of the characters, particularly Frederica.

Oxford, 1968

Frederica
Edmund Wilkie: friend and both a professor and a BBC producer
Elvet Gander: a psychoanalyst (Paul Ottokar is one of his patients)

The third pilot television program is run. The two guests are Hodder Pinsky, and American psychologist and Elvet Gander. They discuss creativity.

Elvet wants to talk privately with Frederica, presumably about Paul (and possibly John - his twin brother)

I was disappointed in the dialogue between the two psychologists - I was hoping for some bright insights.

Elvet has two interesting patients: Paul Ottokar and Josh Lamb
