Алекс, как всегда, прекрасен аки рассвет.

Alex was [...] academically excellent, gaining thirteen O levels.
'I didn't study art or music - that was what you did if you couldn't do physics and chemistry'

'And I soon discovered that if you took a girl down to the sea with a bottle of wine, it was very atmospheric and you could snog them. So growing up by the sea was a brilliant thing.'

'I went to the grammar school where you were encouraged to believe that you were nothing special and would have to work very hard to get anywhere in life, which is a really bad message to send to kids'
