Oh, shit! I knew this day would come. Uhm. It's a book by John Buchan. And a film by Hitchcock. And.... eh.... Sorry, I've failed you. I only know two versions.

Oh, wait! Has Lloyd-Webber turned it into a musical yet?

 

[Merelan]

It is the formula by which heavy water is made.....
Sorry, I forgot it wasn't my turn to be Roger.

 

[Ezzy]

Well ...

perhaps I should open the question up to the rest of the BB,

What are the 3 versions of the discription of the 39 steps?


A clue for all:-
1 book, 2 films (1 black and white, 1 color)

ps The book was black and white and "red" (sp) all over.

Ah, yes, Ezzy. I forgot about the 1970s remake, starring Jesus Of Nazareth.

(Well, not the man himself, of course. I mean, the geezer that played him in the oft-repeated Easter afternoon biblical epic. Robert Powel, I think it was.)

Merelan - it's ok. I looked at the rota. It WAS your turn to be me just then. I think it's Lovely Latina next, isn't it?

I am so sorry. I was wrong the formula was what they were smuggling. And it had nothing to do with heavy water. It was a device to render engines silent. Grrr.
The 39 steps is the organization that collects the information for the foreign government.
Forgiven?

 

[Ezzy]

Ofcause...

you're forgiven.

Anyone want to try for the other two?

I thought The Thirty Nine Steps referred to the number of steps in the tower. The clue that led to Robert Powell hanging from the hands of Big Ben.

Or are the "39 steps" the advanced Lit' addiction programme?

Big Ben 39 step's yes ....poison monkey.....and I was very very drunk
