Clearly I'm going to have to rewatch Splash. I last saw it in piecemeal at a friend's house. All I can remember clearly is the water woman and the man in land clothes, swimming off blissfully together at the end. (It'll be nice seeing Daryl Hannah in something other than a villainous role, too.)

Peter Cushing would have been my ideal Andrew Ketterley, even better than Ernest Thesiger

I agree completely with this concept. That said, why should we have to choose one? The world has room for both the 1938 Graumont Pictures Magician's Nephew with the haughty, entitled Uncle Andrew, and the 1969 Hammer Films Magician's Nephew with Uncle Andrew the beaten, self-pitying martyr to Science.
