A9. BLOODY HELL! ID X.

• You go out to buy “Kensington Gore”.

• Congratulations, you just bought yourself fake blood, or theatrical blood.

• To quote Wikipedia (all hail!):

"Kensington Gore" (a pun on the London street) was a trademark for fake blood used in

films and in theatre. It was manufactured by a retired British pharmacist, John Tinegate,

during the 1960s and 1970s, in the village of Abbotsbury, Dorset. Many varieties of blood,

having various degrees of viscosity, shades and textures were available. Since Tinegate's

death, the name "Kensington Gore" has become a generic term for stage blood.

Kensington Gore was used in the film The Shining.
