Titanic!

Wilson has been reading articles about The Titanic in this month's National Geographic Magazine, and while we were in Eastbourne he asked me to take his photo as he recreated an iconic scene from the movie. 

Since then, W has binned the Jerry can scheme (phew!) and decided instead to re-create Titanic: The Movie. He has has already produced the poster and hopes to begin shooting the movie soon. To keep costs to a minimum, he intends playing all the parts himself, and right now he's sitting in the living room fashioning a Captain Edward John Smith beard out of tumble-dryer fluff. 

Antony, Wilson's plush toy anteater, will be chief cameraman; W says he learned a lot on the movie studio tour, and he's certain Antony will be up to the job. As long as the camera doesn't have to move, presumably.

Wilson has not actually seen the film, so he probably doesn't know about the nude scene…
