I adored this podcast. A beautiful insight into the ins and outs, ups and downs of a highly creative couple. Their love for eachother is beautiful.
This series is wonderful and offers a fresh perspective on a fascinating couple. I enjoyed it so much; it was difficult to hit the pause button , let alone stop. Marvellous.
Great presentation of this famous couple and their relationship.
A wonderful glimpse into their world. And I was sad when I got to the last podcast knowing there would be no more. Perfect production right down to the repetitions of ‘kiss, kiss, kiss...’ at the end of some of the letters.
Great, well edited, amazing people, and touching story. Enjoyed the play too!
