Sad story of Sara Johnson

In reading about the pop band "The Wedding Present," the FAQ (http://www.faqs.org/faqs/music/wedding-present-faq/) said that the song "Dalliance" (which is a great song) is "based on the sad story of Sara Johnson, the mistress of the husband of famous English author Jilly Cooper." Just curious, what's the sad story?--Tdkehoe 03:47, 12 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Octavia

The treatment of Octavia in a biographical article on its author is disproportionately long, with descriptions of its TV production even down to naming the first cast. It is surely more appropriate to make it the information the basis for an article on the work in its own right.Cloptonson (talk) 06:28, 20 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

8 years later, and the section still seems disproportionate. It's by no means obvious that Octavia is significantly more important than JC's other romance novels, and she's hardly Jane Austen in any case. --Ef80 (talk) 17:21, 28 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
