Another obituary: Anthony Shaffer, playwright responsible for Sleuth and the script of The Wicker Man (and brother of the more famous - Amadeus, Royal Hunt of the Sun, Equus - Sir Peter). I hadn't realised that Forbush and the Penguins was one of his -- I caught part of it once, and was amazed. Oh, and he did a whole bunch of those Christmas/Bank Holiday-type Agatha Christie flicks. But I'll forgive him those for Sleuth...
