Creeped the hell out of me!WOODSYhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13456645970983569001noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2156181044707591026.post-16352257418343174002015-09-01T11:41:49.813+01:002015-09-01T11:41:49.813+01:00Yep, Whistle still gives methe chills.

I agree, Michael Hordern is superb in Whistle - the way he scoffs his cooked breakfast like a greedy so and so is very memorable.
