- A line by Robert Morley in the film: ‘Who’s Killing the Great Chefs of Europe?’
He said: ‘This is the most macabre suggestion it has ever been my misfortune to hear.’
Is this grammatically correct and does it sound natural?

Hi Marc, in my book the sentence is correct and sounds natural although it’s a rare case that somebody would create a sentence like.
Exactly, but I’ve heard similar sentences before, mostly from older Englishman in television films. Perhaps it’s the dialogue writer’s privilege to make sentences like that.
That’s absolutely fine. Is there something in the sentence that you think is wrong?
Alan, I’m so happy you’re all right. Thank you for your reply. I hope you like Roger Morley as well as he is thé Englishman à la carte. Please, do me a favour and check Torsten sentence: ‘if tests took overnight…’ It’s aching him. Help him as good as you possibly can.
Thanks.
