That was Basic Instinct. Sharon Stone not Glenn Close. Both Michael Douglas though.
Ah thanks. As far as 80's films are concerned, Back to the Future and Airplane were more my bag anyway !

That's the one that I remember most vividly at 48, the pair of football boots hung up on the back of the bedroom door is one that comes to mind whenever I need to cross a line at level or remote user worked crossings and makes me think every time.I don't recall that one, but the one where the kid got badly burnt on the third rail which finished with his football boots hung up, with the implication that they would never be used again, certainly hit me hard.
It is natural for parents to be worried, and sometimes they understandably need some reassurance. So, it is good this parent had a discussion with you.Fortunately the parent had the sense to phone me and have a conversation about it (and they were OK with it when I explained exactly which crossing it was, as they knew it themselves) rather than going to the Press...apparently their kid had said to them that we had crossed a motorway.
Agreed, it rather reminds me of the 1977 film "The Finishing Line" by British Transport Films. Here is the write-up of it on Wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Finishing_LineYes this is entirely wrong and should never have happened.
A key purpose of education is to ensure children grow up to be responsible, confident and (most importantly!) safe and healthy citizens. Teaching a lesson like this could have disastrous consequences if the children who experienced the lesson then decided to simply apply what they had been taught on a running line (and even worse if that line had third rail!)
Totally irresponsible and whoever decided that should be held accountable for poor decision making and a complete lack of sensible thinking
I worked at Tesco. Someone wasn't getting a refund so they superglued their face to the Customer Service desk. I first knew about it when I went to help cover for a break and noticed two eye brow shaped hairs stuck to the desk.Our friend glued himself to the school gates a couple of years ago. Sounds like a normal fella. Heavily into Grain Of Salt territory.
