What Happened To My Woodcock? Much as I love reading Mary Killen's etiquette column in
The Spectator, it has to be said it's becoming more and more exotic and self-consciously ridiculous. But that's nothing compared to the success of
This England magazine, Britain's best-selling quarterly, complete with a crusty, pastoral
editor's letter (Yes, Amanda, it was published in 2002) and a reactionary, anti-EU
petition. Add magazines like
Country Life and
The Lady,
Countryman or
The Field, and the old question once again arises: will there still always be an England or will it just become more and more parochial and eventually go undercover? Or just disappear?
