Please stop off at Darwen (just outside Blackburn) and this is the reason why.
Darwen was the setting for a Norman Wisdom film(ask your grand parents),called "their was a crooked man"
It featured a town in Britain being destroyed by an bogus American General played by Norman Wisdom.
The rumour goes that the USA asked for the film not to be released as it was showing the USA in a bad light.
It was at the height of "the bay of pigs" in cuba incident,again ask your grand parents.
The film was finally released nearly FIFTY YEARS later in 2017,yes I have got
