I have had a wonderful life but it is over and my nerves get worse and I am afraid they will have to take me away. So please forgive me, all those I love and may God forgive me too, but I cannot bear the agony and it [is] best for everyone this way. The future is just old age and illness and pain.

Crikey, BK. Brilliant quiz. But are you feeling ok? My spirits were beginning to flag just reading the questions. About half way through they started to rise again and I started giggling. Probably hysteria.
-------------------- I think you will find that it is a bit more complicated than that.

14/ Mrs Hassel Schmuck says Piere Angeli. Not sure of the spelling but she was in The Parent Trap, apparently.
