In the US nurses in forensic units are armed with cattle prods and tazers! And they still use straight jackets which are banned here.

I have lost some hair like that, received a couple of busted teeth, had my cheek re-arranged and had my knee bashed up etc etc. Not to mention the insults and abuse.

IF ANYONE OUT THERE HAS A NICE JOB GOING FOR A BURNT OUT PSYCHI NURSE PLEASE PM ME!

There's a fair bit of tut-tut'ing at such unseemly behaviour in a library

So not much library action. But definitely worth seeing despite that oversight

Default Last night I dreamed I deadly dream,
Last night I dreamed I deadly dream,
beyond the Isle of Skye …
I saw a dead man win a fight,
And I think that man was I …

Superb opening sequence to The Man Who Never Was ... one of my favourite British true-story war-time thrillers.


the lovely Gloria Graham as Lucy Sherwood with screen lover Joe (William Russell)


the stunning Josephine Griffin as Pam
Mrs Emma Peel

I think the tagline explains it all -

Quote:
The most fiendish plot ever conceived! The most amazing "human being" ever created! The most diabolical phantom--Terrifyingly true! Unbelievably real! A dead man goes to war!
Raising a 10th century knight is certainly pretty diabolical

As long as he doesn't make a Spratt of himself.
