My World... and Welcome To It: Rally Round the Flag

on BBC Two England

An invitation to step into the humorous and imaginative world of James Thurber.
A series starring William Windom as John Monroe, Joan Hotchkis as his wife Ellen,
Lisa Gerritsen as his daughter Lydia

Certainly there is much to be said for giving your small daughter a conventional Christmas present. Like a new doll. But at the time a United States flag seemed the ideal gift.
It's just that nobody appreciates patriotic fathers any more.
