Blithe Spirit 2020

Post by Frankoid »

I have just seen a trailer for the film "Blithe Spirit" starring Judy Dench and a car that looks suspiciously like an old Jensen. Can anyone confirm this?

I was just going to say CAC 41 too - well spotted.

Just for the record regarding Martin's pictures. In the first picture it looks like the then-owner walking away in the distance. In the second picture that's me and my now wife coming out of the workshop with her hand glued to her ear. I drove CAC 41 part way home from that event and it was just so quiet and effortless.

Am also fairly sure the person coming towards us in the second shot is my brother - then owner of H1.

I love the fact that you're not sure if it's your own brother! LOL
For the record, the photos were taken 23rd September 2006

This shot might confirm the identity of your brother and also David, the then owner.

Having just seen a longer trailer it looks like the Jensen is not a bit player but has a major part :D
