RONALD GRANT ARCHIVE

A weird and wonderful set of entries
appeared in response to last month's
picture. (below).
Retired location manager Malcolm
Treen proposed: "You know, I think it
may well be worth a punt on Flog it,
what do you think Dame Maggie?"
James Noble, freelance sound, sent:
"Yes; I can see a reflection of the
unemployed and thus the economy
but I'm still not using autocue. I'll use
the idiot-boards like she is," while
retired film editor Ken Jones offered:
"Double double toil and trouble,UKIP
in the cauldron bubble".
David WB Morgan suggested she:
"Your rendition of Down Town was
extremely unremarkable, as were
your backing vocalists. Further more,
I was not impressed by you singing
I'm Just Wild About Harry!"
FAA member Henrietta Branwell sent
several including: "I know I look like
Oliver Cromwell in this wig, but we're
going the whole hog - warts and all."
Producer Sarah Lane sent: "Expecto
Expecto
Patronum Dowagerio Countessus of
Granthamus!" and Snape: "And when
!"
I place this around Professor
McGonagall's neck she will awaken
from her trance and take you
shopping for new jumpers."
Retired BBC member Neil
Gilchrist proposed: "When I
agreed to play the part of Franz
Liszt in this film, it was my
understanding that I'd be playing

26

opposite Emma Thompson and that it
would be YOU in this coffin!". Graham
Wiltshire sent: "Hogwarts team keep
watch over the gates of Downing
Street" while Michael Burton, former
neg cutter of Wells, suggested:
Rickman: "By my magic stick and
three fingers I swear these three
will be starring in the next series of
Downton Abbey."
But this month's winner is Chris
Wood of York whose entries included:
"Don't worry, by the time they tart it
up in post-production, we'll ALL be
looking at it..."
The £10 book token is on its way.
Captions for this month's picture
(above) should be in by Friday 6
February. Email them to editor@bectu.
