Sorry, Prue, Thaw doesn't do it for me. Too yellow, dyspeptic,
disillusioned and sarcastic. I would always be expectng him to yell
"Lewis!" What we really need is a big, jolly, bald, strong,
overweight sort of chap able to hump gigantic loads up hills, find
life at sea with a bunch of kids entertaining, able to put up with
Nancy, the monkey and the parrot and still come up smiling. Yet why
do I keep seeing W.C. Fields?
