adapted by Mary Morris from Morris Gleitzman's novel



Dealing with cancer, AIDS, death and other children's issues, this was the story of a boy who is sent to London to protect him from the unfairness of the world. Once there, 12-year-old Colin thinks that if the doctors can't help, then he'll contact Her Majesty. He writes a letter: "Dear Your Majesty the Queen, I need to speak to you urgently about my brother Luke. He's got cancer and the doctors in Australia are being really slack."


The director was Randall Lewton.

"I'm not allowed to give blood !"
" Now that was soppy ! "
" Please tell the Queen that Colin Mudford is here from Australia. "




" H for hospital or C for cancer ? "
" It's Welsh. It means 'forever' "
