Wow... I think I recognise her, and the street she's on. That looks like somewhere along Exeter High Street, and she's the lady with the various crazy signs. Either I, or one of my housemates took one of those pamphlets from her at least once.
In a perfect world, as the demons rampaged through the streets, tearing people in half and violating passing squirrels, she would say "I told you, bitches!", pull a specially-blessed AK-47 from her bag (piece of the True Cross in the gunsights? Bullets made by obscure order of German monks? Work with me, people!) and kick some demonic ass.
...c'mon, the laws of narrative sort of DEMAND it, ya know?
The demon hordes are overwhelming, and then her gun jams - she throws it at the nearest demon, and it stumbles back, buying her enough time to get to her bag. She stomps on it, and a sword flips into her hands - she draws it from its sheath and beheads a demon in a single smooth motion. The other demons hesitate, eyeing the sword and the decoration in its hilt - a chunk of amber with a bloody nail sealed inside.
Behind her, an old Austin Mini drives up and the door pops open - inside, an old woman yells, "Mabel! Get in the car, there's too many!"
(This should almost go without saying but the actors involved are, of course, Helen Mirren and Judi Dench).
"No! I've been training for this my whole life!"
And so on.
Does anyone know someone in Hollywood? We need to get this made. Especially for the scene where they call out to "the order" and all over the world, old ladies get up from their tables at bingo nights, tie a bandana on their heads Rambo-style, and march off to war.
