If you want to spoil it for yourself, read the wiki page on it. It was written by English playwright and novelest, J.B. Priestly, about whom Wikipedia writes--* *Priestley was educated at Belle Vue Grammar School <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Belle_Vue_Boys%27_School>, which he left at sixteen to work as a junior clerk at Helm & Co., a wool firm in the Swan Arcade. <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Swan_Arcade,_Bradford>* *Don't bother with those links, but you have to admit or correct me if I'm wrong, but "Swan Arcade" would be a great or just unique name for a bike.* *I* think that Rivendell ought to make a nod to Flavia de Luce and make a bicycle called "Gladys," for her BSA "Keep Fit." Or, if you want to be more Wodehousian, "Gwladys." https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FTJYMnMTU6I I have no idea if the movie lives up to the books, but the books are fun in a well written, literarily interesting, silly way -- 11/12 year old female scion of impoverished English aristocratic family in 1950-51, precocious chemist with predilection for poisons, living in huge, ancient barracks of ancestral home. Gladys is her dead mother's BSA Keep Fit, amusingly anthropormorphised. I daresay Hollywood or whoever made the movie will mess up the story, but the story series is fun. With a parting riposte: Foyle's War, and George Gently. Over and out.
