An advertisement featuring a man in a suit holding a cigar and a club, standing next to a woman in a leopard print dress. Cave paintings are in the background.

Hang on, I thought Denis Norden presented this??
Oddly enough she’s deleted this.

I think you mean “panicking immigrants” Ms Oakshott?
Now own a copy of this issue of Films & Filming. I may need to get it framed.
