Obviously lager was out of the question, at least until that famous moment in the movie when John Mills is rewarded with his own refreshing pint, so John asked if we would have a glass of water. 'Sure,' Walters piped up, 'help yourself.' John rushed to the sink, turned on the tap, held out his glass expectantly and waited. And waited.
