Crocodile Gran
An 80-year-old woman re-created a scene from the film Crocodile Dundee to tackle a knife-wielding burglar.
Winifred Whelan, from Liverpool, was threatened in her home by a man brandishing a 10-inch knife.
The pensioner grabbed a larger carving knife from her kitchen before shouting: "That's not a knife, this is a knife!"
Mrs Whelan was quoting the famous line from Crocodile Dundee when the film's star Paul Hogan brandishes a hunting knife at a mugger.
She told a newspaper: "I said to the robber: "You call that a knife?" His was around 10 inches long and I had a carving knife measuring about 14 inches.
"I pointed it at his belly and said: "This is a knife!""
Two men were jailed at Liverpool Crown Court in connection with the incident, which happened last September.
