Review of 42 Up (1999) by Andy D — 16 Dec 2008
I have to admit, sadly, that I was quite solidly bored for the first two hours of this edition. And then something happened. And it changed everything. Mmmmbop. Loved it. Although what quite annoys me about the last few editions is that just as I'm recognizing who's who, they stopped mixing up the interviews.
(21 Up, I think.) And watching episodes of John followed by Neil followed by Bruce is nowhere near as fascinating as it was contrasting Bruce to Jackie to Symon. Perhaps that wouldn't work now that we're just meeting their kids, etc, but it is a bit of a shame.
