It is a nightmare ingrained in his memory for all time and also one of his favourite after dinner stories. First, he had to change his professional (stage) name from Michael Scott to Michael Caine to satisfy Equity regulations. His real name, of course, is Maurice Joseph Micklewhite, born in Rotherhithe, South London , on 14 March 1933. The television play was ‘The Lark' by Jean Anouilh and Caine had landed a walk-on part of a prison warder escorting Joan of Arc (played by Hazel Penwarden) to trial. The play is set in 1431, when Joan was put on trial for heresy and then burned at the stake by English barons. Recalls Caine, “They got all the camera movements wrong to start with. On top of that there was the panic of knowing that hundreds of thousands of people would be watching you. There could not be any re-takes. This was live TV. Everyone was on a knife-edge of tension. *OPERATION BERNHARD was an ingenious plan devised by the Nazis to flood wartime Britain with forged currency. It actually started way back in 1938, when Hitler's government put together 140 Jewish experts in forgery during the massive roundups of German Jews into concentration camps. These men were put to work to make near-perfect copies of British five and ten pound notes, and the operation was finally launched in 1942. The idea was to put so many forged notes into the system that the economy of the United Kingdom would collapse. But British agents working undercover in Germany soon found out and intelligence agencies tipped off the Bank of England, which refused to honour notes above the value of one pound. The forgers were duly purged alongside millions of others in extermination camps when Hitler and his ruling elite realised that their clever plan had failed. (History Channel, UBC).

Margot Asquith (1864-1945, Society figure and wit) Emma Alice Margaret Tennant, otherwise known as Margot, was born in Peeblesshire, the eleventh child of the (obviously tireless) Liberal industrialist, Sir Charles Tennant. Although having little formal education the "unteachable and splendid" Margot was blessed with a brilliant, razor sharp mind and a tongue to match. Witty, Margot may have been, but she wiz nae oil painting. She married Herbert Asquith, then Liberal Home Secretary and later Prime Minister, and used her influential position in society to express her views in a forthright manner normally denied to women of the time. She had the personality to carry it off with aplomb. Vibrant, witty and a natural show off, she was never backward in coming forward. "When I hear nonsense talked, it makes me physically ill not to contradict." Her directness, however, when coupled with her acerbic wit could often lead to the kind of verbal cruelty of which Oscar Wilde himself would have been proud. On one occasion, when her name was mispronounced by the American actress Jean Harlow, Margot announced to the assembled company that "The "t" is silent, as in "Harlow"." Great stuff. She knew all of the famous people of her day, and published a series of highly revealing reminiscences in which she recorded conversations with politicians, society figures and royalty, and her opinions of them all.

It reminds me of a string of wet sponges; it reminds me of tattered washing on the line; it reminds me of stale bean soup, of college yells, of dogs barking idiotically through endless nights. It is so bad that a sort of grandeur creeps into it. It drags itself out of the dark abysm of pish and crawls insanely up the topmost pinnacle of posh. It is rumble and bumble. It is flap and doodle.
