39 Steps

My smart watch registered 39 steps.  This brought me back many years, but was it a book, a film or a TV programme?   As I associated it with my grandmother it would definitely not be TV, and unlikely to be film.  The internet satisfied my curiosity and revealed that it was a book, written by John Buchan and  published in 1915. There have been four makings of film of the same name since.  Had my watch shown any other number of steps, I would have paid no heed to it, so one final check;  a return trip to the bathroom from the bed registered 39 steps.
