I watched the 1955 film to catch a thief the other night. It starred Grace Kelly and Clark Gable but also an insurance man from Lloyd's of London. This is the same Lloyd's market where I spent most of my working life and learnt to drink like a fish!
It was hilarious to see the 'respectable' old Lloyd's agent swigging down wine whenever he had the opportunity and even quickly filling his glass whenever Clark turned his back.
Obviously even back in the 1950's it was understood that the insurance and alcohol were best buddies - what chance did I have staying sober being immersed in that regime in the 70's.
