Curtains, did you really think I was trying to stay on topic? ;-)

But while I'm about it


The Ladykillers - Mrs Lopsided getting the better of the gang.


Midnight Run. Just a touch here but there's loads more good stuff.




OLIVER! - It's got everything sex, violence and great songs. I don't do karaoke but if ever I'm simultaneously drunk enough to do so and possessed of total recall and reasonable pitch and whatever else singers require, then put me down for 'As Long As He Needs Me' and 'Oom Pah Pah'.

I'll do others but I'm keen on Nancy's.


Goodfellas - just a great story and I love the scene where Michael Jackson's former manager takes part in 'whacking' Tommy.


Kind Hearts And Coronets - the 'twist' never gets old for me.


The Sound Of Music / Chitty Chitty Bang Bang / Mary Poppins - Nuns and Nazis, a flying car and musical confectionary, a magic nanny and a terrible banker +++ GREAT SONGS!

No disrespect to Sally Ann Howes, who certainly made a decent enough fist of it but I think everyone would have preferred Julie Andrews as 'Truly' in CCBB. Fact.

    • Point is.. top two have quit.. BBC is now what? From being well respected world wide.. not only for news, programs, no idea about pod casts.. Only thing we as a country do well currently is broadcast remembrance service…. Lets face it.. only country that I know of who can release wrong people from jail.. one gave himself up if news is to believed and the other is where? Only country I know of who actually pay people to leave, flights etc and they are back in country .. all heard via Radio 4…  
    • It doesn't matter what channel it was on, how pernicious the subject is and when it happened. Mis-representing the truth in broadcast is not only morally wrong, it's against the OFCOM code of ethics.  Everyone in the industry is trained in how not to do it, most are made to take the BBC's own 'Safeguarding the Trust' course, even if they aren't making BBC programmes.  There wasn't much fuss at the time, because no one knew about it.  "Unless you hate Britain, hate liberals, hate the BBC, want a divided country, support the most powerful person in the world despite his many failings". What the programme makers personally think or feel should never affect how they tell a story; to do so is deeply unprofessional and a sackable offence.  It's the job of the BBC and of all programming to inform viewers of the facts and let them make up their own minds. Even in campaigning documentaries.   
    • Hadn't realised that the Panorama programme that people are up in arms about was over a year ago.  There wasn't much fuss at the time so why drag it up.  Unless you hate Britain, hate liberals, hate the BBC, want a divided country, support the most powerful person in the world despite his many failings. The programme was clumsy, but the vast majority of us know that Trump had an influence.  So the Telegraph has played into his hands.
    • I tried a Lime bike once, too heavy and bulky for me but I understand that many really like them.  And very much support the concept.
