*Tipping the Velvet :* Set in the 1890s, it tells the story of Nancy Astley,
an oyster girl from the English town of Whitstable , who falls in love with
a male impersonator and stage performer named Kitty Butler and begins to
undergo a complete life transformation. The story deals with the topic of
lesbian sex and desire along with the role that economic class can play in
oppression. The title is a Victorian-era euphemism for cunnilingus.



This 2002 BBC television drama serial is based on the bestselling debut
novel by Sarah Waters of the same name. It stars Rachael Stirling, Keeley
Hawes , and Jodhi May . Directed by Geoffrey Sax, the novel was adapted by
acclaimed screenwriter Andrew Davies.



*Directions:* Coming from Saket, come on Press Enclave Road past the right
turn for PVR Saket. You pass Max hospital and the Marriot. Then the giant
construction of the DDA city centre comes on your right -- look for the Hauz
Rani bus stop. When you see the bus stop, on your left is Nandini
Restaurant. Walk into Khirki through the dirt lane next to Nandini. You'll
come to a red temple in about thirty seconds. Take a left at the temple and
walk till you see a yellow door on your right. If coming from Chirag Delhi,
take a right onto Press Enclave Road, and just as the DDA mall construction
begins, look for Nandini restaurant on your right.
