Subject: RE: BS: Do small errors in books, film &c matter
Maybe this belongs in the broadcasting standards thread, but something that annoys me is readers getting the emphasis wrong and either changing the meaning or rendering what they are reading meaningless. An example was a reading of Cider with Rosie a few years ago on Radio 4. Laurie's mother recounts how she went to Aldershot dressed in her Sunday best, including 'crochet-work gloves' - but in this reading she was wearing 'crochet work-gloves'!
