This week's Final Word comes from a Victorian novel with a stake in Whitby:

"Van Helsing summed it all up as he said, with our boy on his knee:- 'We want no proofs; we ask none to believe us! This boy will some day know what a brave and gallant woman his mother is. Already he knows her sweetness and loving care; later on he will understand how some men so loved her, that they did dare much for her sake.' "

The winner of last week's competition, who identified Emile Zola's La B¨ºte Humaine , is Michelle Haynes of London NW7.
