It was obvious that they had a history, and it was my son Jamie who first suggested that I should write about it.&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Oxford Mail spoke to Philip Pullman at the London premiere of The Golden Compass and has more details of upcoming His Dark Materials releases.
