Hello Bob,
I merely suggested changing "derailed" to "shoaled," since the film
was about a sea captain travelling between Gibraltar and Morocco.
"Derailed" was Tony's, not my comment.
I love those old British flms (new too, for that matter - I often
watch them just for the various accents).
Anbd poetry as well.
Cheers
