Robert Westall on Cats, and Writing
I must do a post on Robert Westall's books for the Spooky Library series, not least because he remains one of the most successful post-war ghost story authors. In the meantime here he is, cunningly disguised as Bob Westall, in a clip from a children's TV show - the voice-over is surely the late and much-missed Brian Glover. I assume this was recorded when Blitzcat was published in 1989.

Marvellous author, both of ghost stories and often surprisingly hard-edged children's books
Yes, I like the way he doesn't pull his punches.
