Dorothy Manley was brought up in Ramsey and from a young age became well-known for her recitation, winning awards for her dramatic interpretations, and widely praised for her acting ability. We hear her poetry from a booklet, 'Fairy's Ground : Homely Tales and Poems'.

In our translation into Manx of Bram Stoker's Dracula, the five friends are gathered at Count Dracula's house in Piccadilly. Quincey Morris quickly, by gesture alone, places them so that they can deal with the arrival of the Count, whose key can be heard in the lock of the front door.
