Up the oak tree etc.

I wonder why nobody has thought of making a film of it? A TV drama was made based on Walter Scott's novel, but it was a bit so so.

Forget all other buddy movies; this would be the ultimate. It's the greatest story ever as far as I'm concerned - and all of it is true.

This is a sort of feeler. People either know who I'm talking about, or they don't. If they don't, this is the end of it and no harm done, but please don't put him in the lounge.

Locking - no one has responded and this thread does technically break forum rules.
