          Oh very good. We'll have DavidP pitching up with all this film music going on! (Not a word to frenchie! )

          Keep it clean, cloughie!
          "...the isle is full of noises,
          Sounds and sweet airs, that give delight and hurt not.
          Sometimes a thousand twangling instruments
          Will hum about mine ears, and sometime voices..."

            wouldn't like to be accused of untidiness

            that was Richard Rodney Bennett film music

            Far From the Madding Crowd
            Murder on the Orient Express
            Nicholas and Alexandra

              It was very neat, mercia

              Cloughie appears to have shown a clean pair of heels, as the saying goes

              Where'd he go, where'd he go?!

                    from a music point of view, Edward Bairstow had connections to Wigan, Leeds and York

                        I think the answer may be Cuthbert, although I haven't found a lamplighter connection

                          indeed scary people have Cuthbert as their middle name ....stick with the English choral tradition. ....

                            Cuthbert is a good north-east name isn't it

                            anyway, Roger Cuthbert Quilter set R L Stevenson's The Lamplighter poem
                            and Oldest Member is a character in Wodehouse's golfing stories & novels, including The Clicking of Cuthbert

                            apparently
