From Hell was good insofar as it showed The Elephant Man in full colour.
Interesting fact, which I have mentioned on here before, is that old potato head Joseph Merrick himself is believed in certain quarters as a suspect for the Whitechaple slashings. He was in St Thomas's at the very same time as the murders, before he was given a room in the hospitals and between spells in various Victorian Freak shows, he limped through the streets of the easy end in a huge balaclava maybe fantasising about women he knew he would never have. The bitter irony of The Elphant Man is his genitals were completely unaffected by the various conditions his cruelly suffered.
However, due to pressure from The Proteus Society, the web link I mentioned scrubbed Merrick from the suspect link.
Another wonderful fact from Wardy.
