Anytime I see Redmond enter a scene, I cringe. I find her representative of all the teachers I’ve hated in school, an d AF must have known them too, as she writes that role so well. “We were evidently wrong, weren’t we?” People who treat children like that! Awful! Tim and Lawrie also make me mad in that first scene, Lawrie saying, “but you say it so much better.” Coward! And Tim can be quite beastly.
I am rather curious how she and Nick fared last summer term while Lawrie was home mending her leg, and Nick was starting to "share jokes across the room" with Miranda. I think Miranda and Tim are probably the cleverest children in the room, perhaps it's the fact that they are so alike that keeps them from being friends.
