| You can't " me" but I am second from the left...I effin know...there's only 11 |
It's my best friend Nu's birthday soon and I wanted to get her a pressie with a bit of a kick ( I am sick of sending her nice flowers)....so I got all stuck in with mr google and have just booked her ( and me) two tickets to the west end production of Twelve Angry Men just BEFORE IT CLOSES... It's a cracker of a movie if you remember
I will get down to London around 6 pm. Meet her for a cocktail the off to Angry men we'll go.......
If I was ever picked for a jury ...I am oh so wanting to be Henry Fonda............juror 8
However I am more likely to be the juror 6
Look him up if you can't remember
I can't wait
Weird, I was just talking about this movie this morning.
ReplyDeleteI'm sure you and Nu will have a great time!
I have never been on a jury, which makes me mad. Other people (like my husband) have been called many times, and I have never been and I have been voting ever since I was eligible!
Another show you have just made me watch! I love Henry Fonda in so many movies!
ReplyDeleteI was the foreman of a Jury a few years ago. Very interesting (and in ways farcical). Got to stand up and say "Not Guilty... Unanimous..." ten times. Although it wasn't unanimous until a bit of Henry Fonda stuff did some persuading. I got grateful looks (ten times, ten charges, all nonsense, unanimously). It was worrying in many ways too.
ReplyDeleteYou can always send *me* nice flowers for a change. Hope the production is wonderful!
ReplyDeleteI have an abiding fear of being tried by a bunch of people not smart enough to get out of jury duty.
ReplyDeleteLike Carol, above, I've never had 'the call'. I would have liked to be on a jury; no idea why, but it seems to confirm one as 'a citizen'.
ReplyDeleteI think you nailed, Cro - "confirm on as a citizen"
DeleteD'oh, nailed IT. Not awake yet, sorry!
Deleteno not number 6 more no 10 Ed he allways looked as though he had a naughty funny way behind the mask of respectability and could giggile at the drop of a hat i like that in a person
ReplyDeleteI was on a jury once, and although not a murder case, the same arguments took place. One even wanted to just put a guilty verdict through quickly because he had pre-booked a golf match. I've heard the stage play is excellent John, when are you going?
ReplyDeleteJust before it closes 12 June!
DeleteJack Klugman's finest hour. It was all downhill with Quincy from there.
ReplyDeleteThe 12th guy took the photo, John!!
