    Watching Ch5 now. Lionel Barr’s version wins hands down for me.

    Got to be the best one I agree, but don’t read the book before you watch it you’ll be angry at the light hearted ness of the film then

    Oh yes and extremely badly treated. Shot in the burglary left in a ditch to die...

    Nothing worse than being shot in the burglary. That’s gotta sting.

    Did you have to get rid of the tash?
    You would have met one of my tutors at Osteo college then ... Walter McCone. Played the piano I think ......? Hang on, that was Bugsy Malone.
    "Oliver" became an Osteo, that's what it was .... Took over from him in Stroud about 20 years ago and he shipped out to Gloucester and went more into Acupuncture.

    No, old "Mungo" Lester was in the Royal Dragoons. Leapfrogged all the way through Burma in the 1940s, I believe.
