		The practice of writing mantras as a spiritual practice, became very refined in Japan, and the writing in the Siddham script in which the Sanskrit of many Buddhist Sutras where written, is only seen in Japan nowadays.
		practice might include mudras, or symbolic hand gestures, or even full body prostrations; the recitations of mantras; as well as the visualization of celestial beings and visualizing the letters of the mantra which is being recited.
		Mantra practice has also been taken up by various New Age groups, although this is typically out of context, and from the point of view of a Hindu or Buddhist practitioner, lacks depth.

		Over his extensive and varied career as a screenwriter, Davies has tackled other contemporary work, such as Circle of Friends and House of Cards, as well as penning many original screenplays, notably the weird and wonderful A Very Peculiar Practice back in the eighties.
		But it is for his juicy adaptations of the classics of English Literature that Davies has earned his formidable reputation.
		Davies does like his sex, but it is getting to the heart of the characters and their passions, so often masked in 19th Century lit, that has become his signature.

		Written by Andrew Davies and starring Peter Davison it follows the arrival of a doctor to the medical practice of a 1960s University which is adjusting (or not) to the Thatcherite world.

		Comment: The first series of "A Very Peculiar Practice" was first aired in 1986 on BBC2.
		However, A Very Peculiar Practice was much, much more than that.
		The highlight for me of this extremely funny, compelling and in some ways profound show was the Machiavellian intrigues of the feminist Doctor, intrigues that ironically revealed just how close she came to one of the main objects of her derision, i.e.

	Davies, Andrew
		His other original television work includes A Very Polish Practice, a one-off sequel to his series, and the pilot for the London Weekend Television series, Anna Lee.
		After the success of dramatisations of Michael Dobbs' House of Cards and its sequel, To Play the King (for which he was accused of a left-wing bias), he was commissioned for the much-heralded, expensive and extensive version of George Eliot's Middlemarch, at the time the BBC's most costly drama serial.
		He was involved in a very public struggle to get screen time for Anglo Saxon Attitudes, attacking ITV's "flexipool" (or "indecision pool") in the process.

		In addition to the screenplay's thinly veiled reference to the conflict between the United States and Iraq, Warrior Queen's script also hints at the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, the Taliban in Afghanistan, and the tragedy of child soldiers in parts of Africa.
		Kingston feels that a film about Boudica is very timely, perhaps because of some of these connections, but largely because of the story itself.
		"There seem to have been very few screen versions of her story, but strangely, when we were developing the idea, I suddenly got a lot of people contacting me with Boudica ideas," she says.

		Plot Outline: A surreal comedy series tracking the career of Stephen Daker, a young doctor who works for the health centre of a modern British university.
		Not the most obvious setting for a comedy, but it's fitting that the dark, forbidding structures of Lowlands University match the richly dark humour of A Very Peculiar Practice.
