Phyllida Archer-Dowd on Teletubbies

Hello. Phyllida Archer-Dowd here. As one of the founders of the Children’s Protectorate Council, I have once again been allotted space in But I Digress. This is, of course, a self-serving action on Mr. David’s part, since he has become so enmeshed in his stage activities that he has little enough time to attend to his proper writing duties. Indeed, it is not surprising to me that he was drawn to 1776, a musical “entertainment” that degrades our founding fathers, rife with profanity and jokes about such riotous subjects as urination, lust, and prostitution.
