wanting in penetration

I made a circuitous attempt at enlightening him a little, but he looked very knowing and said, "Don't tell me about rears and vices; I have been in the Navy all my life."'
'Then surely he must be wanting a little in penetration?'
'James, I trust there was no mens rea in that remark?'

ITV made Hornblower and Sharpe, as well as several Austens, and Downton Abbey... but it's true, we all think of costume dramas as the BBC's.

There was a cute behind-the-scenes bit in the making-of, with Warley trying to do the hornpipe and everyone laughing at him.

I don't think I've seen the Nicholas Nickleby.

Sorry, there were Pullings, Warley and Joe Plaice, and it is still available. ;D I am certain that in GB you would find another provider than amazon uk.
