Takes a bit of remembering. She's on honeymoon, in the hotel suite and sends Darrin down to reception in his dressing gown.

Good memory, Stoday, and a fun question, Galvo.

I will guess she fixes a reservation.

During the Napoleonic wars one of the Emperor's ships was wrecked off the north east coast of England. The only survivor was a monkey dressed in a French uniform.

Now the nearby seaside town was inhabited by local yokels who thought the monkey was a Frenchman. They had never seen anyone from France. They tried to get the monkey to talk, which convinced them it was a Frenchman because it appeared to know no English. So they hung the monkey as a French spy.

What was the name of the town?

 :rofl; I love this question. I had a guess, but then I noticed you said north east, so it wouldn't work. (And no, I don't dare say which town for fear of insulting someone.)

I'd take a guess, but would have to consult a map of England, and this question seems to be calling Galvo's name somehow....

Oh, and I was just going to look this person up the other day to see what ever became of him. I seem to think his first name was Joel. Perhaps that will spark someone's memory.... unless I'm wrong!

Although he takes a hard line with trivia, Gregory pondered awhile and decided to accept that.  Joseph Hazelwood.  Over to you PaulKaren.

  If I remember correctly, that makes it my turn to ask a question.  So, here goes.
   
   In the 1985 film "Brazil" who played Archibald 'Harry' Tuttle?

   Cariad you are 100% correct.  I really liked him in that role and liked the movie.  Silly but very funny. 
    It's all yours.  Ask away.
