Right actor, wrong film.

The main actor is Nicky Henson but I don’t recognise the women. Possibly an 80s or 90s film as Henson is wearing a neckachief.

Yes … also known as ‘Old Dracula’ (1974) and starring, David Niven.

over to you, Toscano

Thank you, aldo. :wink:

I remember Nicky Henson from a classic episode of my No. one TV comedy, ‘Fawlty Towers’ - an episode entitled ‘The Psychiatrist’ (1979), where he plays ‘Mr Johnson’.

  • Basil Fawlty: Are you dining here tonight, here in this unfashionable dump?
  • Mr. Johnson: I wasn’t planning to.
  • Basil Fawlty: No, not really your scene is it?
  • Mr. Johnson: I thought I’d try somewhere in town. Anywhere you recommend?
  • Basil Fawlty: Well, what sort of food were you thinking of… fruit or…?
  • Mr. Johnson: Anywhere they do French food?
  • Basil Fawlty: Yes, France I believe. They seem to like it there, and the swim would certainly sharpen your appetite. You’d better hurry, the tide leaves in six minutes.

Magic! :grin:

Anyway, try this one…

Nicky Henson’s finest hour … or half hour if one was to be pedantic :wink:

I think Henson once joked that his tombstone would say:
‘Here lies Nicky Henson. He was in one episode of Fawlty Towers’

Do you happen to know which novel The Bandit was based off of? Sounds interesting.

Is that one Troll 2?

It’s not ‘Troll 2’, Rocky…

Some more pics which will help a lot, I’m sure. :wink:

It’s one of nine short stories that make up Giovanni Verga’s ‘Vita dei campi’ (‘Life in the Fields’) (1880). A recent English translation ‘Life in the Country’ (J.G. Nichols) (Alma Classics) (2018) is widely available.

Haven’t seen this, but a strong clue and an educated guess tells me it’s ‘Slugs’ (1988)

:wink:
