No - I meant the original, with Dudley Moore being harrassed by Peter Cook as the devil. And I have to admit - the memory still has me laughing, especially when I relate it to voters and politicians. It didn't matter how Dudley phrased the wish, he never got what he expected, he couldn't win.
Here's a funny thing Monty - last night at mid-night I was hunched over my keyboard, firing off something on this stuff, and on television appeared the very film! Great 1967 version - Dudley Moore as victim, Peter Cook as devil, Barry Humphries as envy, Raquel Welch as lust. As I listened I was again struck by the comparison with voters and politicians - 'No - that's not what I asked for- you didn't make that clear!' etc. Great stuff.
