FRED Dibnah: The Movie. The Bolton News resports – with thanks to Bat E Bird in the forums:

“THE life of steeplejack Fred Dibnah is to be turned into a blockbuster movie.

Plans for the film are still being drawn up, but a website has been launched in a bid to attract the necessary funding from the film industry.

The project is still in the early stages, which means that no decision has been made about who will play Fred, who lost his battle with cancer in November, 2004.”

As she asks:

One to keep an eye out for but who should get the part?

Is Clare Short free? Tim Healy? Readers?
