Well, as we're in the Library, I can't possibly utter my usual words to describe such people, but I will say that they're thoroughly bad sorts - rotten eggs - and absolute bounders. The worst type of cads. I suppose if one made the registration process too lengthy, it might discourage new members , ...

Whoever bought the maimed copy of Mayhem In Greece which Jim referred to might think themself lucky to still have the signed portion. I've seen two different foreign editions of Murder Off Miami, which from the distinctive handwriting on them would seem to have been Wheatley's own copies, both lacki...

I'd love to see Hammer back in production, but I'll believe it only when I see it. As to them doing another Wheatley film, this raises an interesting dilemma for whoever controls the copyrights, because surely after To The Devil - A Daughter, Dennis vowed that he'd never let Hammer film another of h...

[font=Comic Sans MS] [/font] As regards The Forbidden Territory, when I enquired of the BFI (albeit ten or more years ago), I'm sure they said that they held a copy.[font=Comic Sans MS] [/font]

[font=Courier New] [/font]Garry, not even DW would have had the nerve to attempt a plot like that....I don't know though. I trust the Nazis were led by a Satanically re-animated Herr Gruppenfuhrer Grauber? Anyway, if you're going to be sarcastic, I'll just have to write the thing myself. Give me a f...

[font=Times New Roman] [/font]I've sometimes amused myself by considering a novel in which Roger Brook's daughter and Georgina's son travel to - where was it, Germany? - in an attempt to establish whether Roger and Georgina could possibly have survived their seemingly inescapable doom. If anyone wou...

The Paperback Fanatic

The gathering at the hotel seems a great idea to me. Count me in. Will make an effort to contribute to the forum instead of just reading all your interesting comments.[font=Courier New] [/font]

Bob's Passing

I too was saddened to learn of Bob's passing, and, though I never met him in person, I will always treasure the memory of our long telephone conversations - mostly about DW of course. This splendid website is indeed Bob's legacy to all DW fans, and what a wonderful legacy it is! I am sure we will al...
