Was that a British TV show, Denzil? If it was, it isn't one that I've ever seen.

This was a film with John Hurt in it Ruth, quite a sad film really

It was a sad film, heart-wrenching infact. But wasn't Anthony Hopkins wonderful in it?

Ah Denzil, you're back! Been anywhere nice today?

And Ruth it was the 'lug' bit! To me a lug is a worm....a lug worm, but certainly not baldy codger Ruth, don't believe that Denzil he tells all sorts of stories!!

The best thing about that film ( the elephant man) is that it is a true story. A very sad story.
