This story was actually turned into an episode of a TV show called Tales of the Unexpected. The acting in the performance is excellent, particularly by Sir John Gielgood who plays bogus. So I highly recommend that you watch that TV version of this story as well. You'll find the video on the page for this episode on my website. Thank you so much for listening to Luke's English podcast.
