Gloucester Crescent
The houses in the crescent and nearby soon started to fill with either Mum and Dad's friends or people just like them — including Alan; the Labour MP Giles Radice; Royal Court artistic director Max Stafford-Clark; the novelists Beryl Bainbridge, Alice Thomas Ellis and Kingsley Amis; TV presenter Joan Bakewell; philosopher Sir A. J. Ayer; and authors Shirley Conran, Angus Wilson and V.S. Pritchett.
