    Eric Longworth, who played Wallace in the 1975 TV adaptation, died recently, aged 90...

    His son mentions his uncanny resemblance to "the killer.."

    Thanks for putting that up Rod. I wrote to him earlier this year but he was obviously not well enough to reply.

    Might be worth contacting his son, who seems to have some interest in his Wallace portrayal...

    It might also be worth contacting ITV3 or ITV4 to enquire if there is any chance they could rerun the 1975 drama (tribute to Longworth/Liverpool cuture tagline...).

    It's the sort of show they sometimes air...

    Yes, that would be a good idea. I'm sure one of the ITV sides could find a slot for it. I'll write to them.

    I wrote to ITV regarding them possibly screening WKJW? Here's their reply:

    Thank you for your email. There are no plans for the programme to be re-screened on ITV.

    There you are - abrupt and to the point I suppose it must be hard work for them though sifting through the garbage they offer us...Looks like WKJW? will be confined to the dustheap for the forseeable future...

    Shame about that, Mark. Was that just ITV1?

    I have a contact at ITV3 [I was on Stuart Maconie's "TV Towns" last year, on the Liverpool episode], and will give him a ring...

    It was the whole ITV network Rod. Good luck with that.

    I think you'll have to impress upon them the fact that you're not enquiring about their "plans" but are seeking to get them to put it in their "plans"

    I think there is a chapter on Wallace - he said he would be covering the case in a chapter on it a few months ago. I'll probably get a copy sometime today online - (it's cheaper).
