Does all this mean that as the bouncing bomb approaches the dam; It'll be greeted by Galdalf shouting 'YOU...Shall Not..Pass!!!!' and shoving his staf into the water?!?!?!

Staying off the original subject one of the first patients I saw after coming to Italy had terrible scars across her back.
Me "How did you get these scars" thinking road accident or similar.
Patient "A bomb"
Me "
A BOMB!
Patient "An English bomb"
Me :redface:
She must have been about ten when it happened.
And here's a picture of my mate's dad
A nice guy. Actually he was a mechanic not a pilot.

One important question - I wonder where they'll film it...

Wouldn't it be nice if, like Memphis Belle with B-17s, they gather airworthy Lancasters together for the filming. Okay, there are only two at the moment, but what if 'Just Jane' was funded back to flying condition by the studios ? Okay, not likely in this CGI-world, but we can but hope. I'd even forgive them leaving out Nigger if JJ flew again...well, maybe..

Well Young Mr Walters is staying very quiet but I understand that the flying would be CGI :k:

Remember the beloved Ealing Film "The Lady Killers" with Obi Wan Guinness & the lines just north of Kings Cross Station.
That was - as you will recall, remade not too long ago with Tom Hanks, (Barns Wallis anyone?) and that was a rather medeocre remake at that.
IF this remake were to be made I realy do hope it is given the research & funding it deserves.
As for the famous Eric Coates Theme :sad:

Is the guy who played Morse still alive? Strikes me he would make an excellent Barnes-Wallis even if he looks nothing like him - The major problem I see is that there are few young british actors left to play the likes Gibson - For whatever else you fault the Battle of Britain for , the
producers had an incredible pool of actors to draw from.

You mean John Thaw, Leif ? Sadly, he passed away some years ago. I agree though, he would have been ideal for the role of B-W.
