The Importance of Being Earnest was shown on Swedish television when I was in my early teens, and we recorded it on a video tape. For years it was my sister's and my go-to thing to watch if we had nothing better to do; it got to the point where we could probably quote it all by-heart! Surprisingly the tape didn't actually wear out. I looked for that version of the play for ages without finding it, and then one day when I had almost forgotten it I looked at some DVD box sets in a knick-knack shop in Leamington Spa and there was a set of Oscar Wilde plays and 'our' version of The Importance of Being Earnest was one of them! I bought it on the spot, not bother about how much it was!
