This week's theme for Friday, 21st October, Challenge No. 24, is ' Whispers '. I have written two texts for this challenge. These are two separate stories with separate characters.

Here is my text, a short, short story, written directly for REWers: ------ 'Did you know that Sir Lawrence Olivier lived here?' said Charlotte trying to impress her friend from home.
