Grim Up North

Not a qualifying film? Okay I'll change it to The Longest Day (1962) Leslie Phillips (1924) Stuart Whitnan (1928) Michael Medwin (1923)

Norman Wisdom:His Story (2010) Ricky Tomlinson (1939) Dame Vera Lynn (1917) Leslie Phillips (1924) That should keep Joey and Sir Creep chuntering for a while

Happy now?

If he was 70 and his Scrabble score is 46 then I think possibly this thread is already a little complicated for you? And yes I agree with you regarding the second point but virtually every Pole that dies will hit the Scrabble deficit as Z is only worth 1 point in Polish Scrabble as it is such a popular letter.
