If you're drying film in the bathroom, run the shower at full heat for a while before hanging the film. the steam will cut the airborne dust content and give you time to get out of the room and turn off all the fans (they are DUST MAGNETS). Then just wait. Wet emulsions are fragile and sticky and will pick up anything and everything.

Thanks AndrewF. It was in a spare bathroom with an extractor fan (no window) which comes on automatically with the main light switch; it might have picked up dust from that.

All right, I will have a go a rescuing it, but now Julia has agreed once,
 it is likely that she will again ;-).
