Films for TV have to be much closer to the book mainly because the objective with a TV movie that translates literature is to get the audience after seeing this version to pick up the book and read it themselves.

I was bringing my attitude as a regular person 'cause this is my attitude.
I went to England in the '70s and I was in my early 20s. There was still a residue of that era of being an underclass or colonial.

We were a country full of sheep and convicts.
That term's definitely got a negative aura to it because people think a diva is somebody with an attitude who demands things all the time.
