The hangman preparing to offer Dick Turpin a 'grizzly end' - or should that be grisly? The executioner is played by actor Ray Alexander in Frank Dwyer's photo.
A tall tale of grisly bares DICK Turpin met a ‘grizzly end’ according to the caption showing the hangman in your story ‘What’s the gory history behind this little block of stone in York?’ (The Press, June 13).
No doubt he found that hard to bear.
A victim of predictive text I suspect.
