The Frustrated CFO commentary:

When I heard these words spoken with a bitter sigh by Gillian Anderson I felt fortunate to have experienced once more the cultural sensation Alan Bennett described as the hand of an unknown but like-minded friend reaching out to you from far away.   For confirmation, check out this post on social networking I wrote back in November 2013.  You don't even have to bother yourself with all 1000+ words – just read the fourth paragraph.

I've never met you, Allan Cubitt, but you are my friend.
