PATRICK MARMION: It's the importance of being Earnest by 'eck


Verdict: Sweet, but still harrowing
Contrary to my persistent belief, Oscar Wilde did not say ‘imitation is the sincerest form of flattery’.
It certainly sounds like him, but it was in fact a line from the much lesser-known Victorian man of letters, Charles Caleb Colton.
Even so, it was a sincere form of flattery if not folly for Yasmeen Khan to produce a pastiche of one of Wilde’s best-loved and most-quoted comedies, resetting it in modern ’uddersfield, the northern town that lost its initial letter.
