Lucky again! Wait, there's a His Dark Materials dramatization?!? Why did I not know this???? On a nerdier note, I think the reason that they allow (or apparently allow) leading questions, hearsay, etc. in British courts but not US is because ours is a deliberate reaction against theirs, so we didn't like hearsay/leading questions and they just never got around to outlawing them themselves since they like their own system. And I am NOT getting tired of teaching Anneka and Anna how to walk like men. I LIKE it. I'm just running out of things I remember your parents doing, so I'm repeating myself. Which is frustrating, because I just KNOW I'm forgetting something. Rush home.
