[QUOTE=OpalCat] You could argue that it’s dirtier in relative terms, but I meant that just on its own merits, not taking into account the era in which it was written, it’s the same as what we see today. [/QUOTE] Yes, but the video in those days was all grainy and poorly lit. 😛 ---

Bumped. > [@Elendil\_s\_Heir](#): > > I seem to vaguely remember a book called _The Tutor_, about very naughty goings-on in a Victorian country home, as told by a scullery maid or the like. Don’t know the author, though, and was never able to find it again after reading it in my teens. Found it! _The Tutor: Being the Reminiscences of Thomasina Wragg_ by P.N. Dedeaux (Grove Press 1971). Not actually Victorian, but set in 1855 and written in that style, more or less. Quaint but pretty raunchy, with a lot more whippings, birchings, canings etc. than I remember.
