'The Librarians' is coming

Starting next Wednesday 31st October at 9:30 pm this new comedy on ABC is set in a public library. Frances O'Brien (Robyn Butler) is the highly-strung Head Librarian of the Middleton Interactive Learning Centre, and is completely insensitive to the needs of her eclectic group of employees and the public in general.

Immersed in planning for Book Week, her focus is diverted when her ex-best friend and nemesis, Christine Grimwood (Roz Hammond) applies for the Children's Librarian's position. While completely unsuitable, Christine desperately needs a responsible job before fronting court on drug trafficking charges. Frances refuses but soon finds herself forced to hire Christine.

It will be interesting to see how accurately libraries and librarians are portrayed. The reviews so far have been positive. Debi Enker this morning on 774 raved over it.

Well, how did you like it Annie? I must say I have found it pretty silly
