 Nigel Hawthorne : Theatre : The Clandestine Marriage - Review
Mr Sterling is hoping to gain a place among the nobs by marrying his elder daughter to Sir John Melvil, the trouble being that the said daughter is a hysterical termagant.
After his triumph in The Madness of George III (a role he has just repeated for an eagerly awaited film), he is now making his directorial debut in this unjustly neglected 18th-century comedy by David Garrick and George Colman.
Garrick and Colman recognised that greed, snobbery and the triumph of young love are the surefire ingredients of English comedy, and their beautifully constructed play brings a social-climbing merchant and his daughters' into violent collision with impoverished aristocracy.

 Nigel Hawthorne : Theatre : The Clandestine Marriage - Review
Her elder sister is about to marry one Sir John Melvil; and Lovewell's idea is that Melvil's uncle, the old and grand Lord Ogleby, to whom he, Lovewell, is distantly related, might bring his wealth and influence to bear on Mr Sterling to accept the marriage.
Miss Sterling (Deborah Findlay) takes this in very bad part indeed: the composure of the spoilt, smug snob, for whom a good address clearly has an erotic appeal, is replaced by the indignant shrieks of the snubbed harpy.
I hope that in all this ghastly seasonal panic, nobody will put off if I say that this is an ideal Christmas treat for the West End: a shrewd and warm-hearted production of a shrewd and warm-hearted comedy (1766) by David Garrick and his friend and sparring partner George Colman the Elder.

 The Fowler Collection
There, while proving to himself that it was possible to live on 100 pound sterling a year, he was a freelance journalist.
He and his brother, Francis George Fowler, proposed to write "a sort of English composition manual, from the negative point of view, for journalists & amateur writers." The outcome, The King's English, was published by the Oxford University Press and quickly became a de facto standard.
Fowler addressed these point in A Dictionary of Modern English Usage, first published in 1926 and still in print.
