BBC News said:
Winifred Whelan, from Liverpool, awoke to find a man standing by her bed with a 10in knife, demanding money.

She ran downstairs, grabbed a 14in carving knife and shouted the famous line from the classic 80s film.

"That's not a knife. That's a knife,"

Brave lady, good on her.

The attack happened in Sept 2005, her son died some time between then and now. You know the events arent related, yeah?
