We don’t want to see a real pipe here, that’s too easy. Maybe make a massive cardboard cut-out pipe, and sit next to a cardboard open fire. Talk in a posh accent about crime and Watson’s your uncle.

Wild at Heart (1990)

Indiana Jones’ whip
Indiana Jones and the Raiders of the Lost Ark (1981)

Mary Poppins’ Umbrella
Mary Poppins (1964)
Ease Of Swede: 5/10
Get an umbrella, slide down the banister, then loop the footage backwards. You’re Mary Poppins!

Jesus Quintana’s glove
The Big Lebowski (1998)
Ease Of Swede: 6/10
Get down to your local bowling alley with one of your old fingerless mittens. Extra points for reciting the full speech.
Snake Plissken’s eye patch
Escape From New York (1981)
Ease Of Swede 6/10
Head for your local joke shop, buy a pirate costume, chuck everything in the bin except the eye patch, scratch off the skull and crossbones, whack it on and start growling dialogue.
Go into the garden, fetch a long stick, swagger around like you're at a party. Simple.
Dorothy’s ruby slippers
Wizard of Oz (1939)
Ease Of Swede 7/10
Get some old moth-eaten slippers, dip 'em in some red paint, wait for them to dry, then stick 'em on and whack 'em together, chanting there's no place like home, there's no place like home...
