Stig, meanwhile, had hidden in the background so much, that in 1969, a rumour went around that he was dead. He was supposed to have been killed in a flash fire at a waterbed shop, and replaced by a plastic and wax replica from Madame Tussaud’s.

In fact, it sounds uncannily like “Dnab Bulc Strad Ylno srettur Sgt”. - View Quote Details on Stig, meanwhile, had hidden in the background so much, that…
