This documentary celebrates Jilly Cooper as a supremely insightful, funny and sharp-eyed chronicler of our lives and times. Other English writers may have won more literary prizes but few have so consistently held up a mirror to the English as they really are, their foibles and fantasies, attitudes to sex, love, money, manners and class. In doing so she has created a vision of England that the whole world has fallen in love with.
