  • Isn't this clip just the same footage that's on the South Bank Show? I haven't watched it for over a decade, but I remember this.

  • When I saw this years ago I always thought Morrissey looked uncomfortable with her.

    Her story was an interesting explosion form moribund working poverty to brief reckless glamour and spending but from current perspectives of endless lottery/scratchball winnings, it no longer has much resonance.

    She's still alive,still milking her story, she has an official website here:

    http://www.vivnicholson.co.uk/

    And it seems there's a play based on her story doing the rounds of the UK.

  • I don't intend to be mean, but why does/did Morrissey admire her.
    She is like most people who win a large amount of money...the stories of lottery winners going bankrupt is as thick as fleas on a dog...they just overspend and are usually worse off after the win than before.

    From what I have read of her she was just materialistic and wanted more things. No financial planning or anything. "I have the money so I'll spend it."

    What's to admire?

  • Good to see some old stuff go from VHS to digital format. I have TONS of old stuff on VHS, would love it if it all went digital.
