Fantastic series Grant . If you like this get ' Ganges ' . Also have a look on Amazon for 'Baraka ' .

Sound Innovations From Bose on QVC Freeview Channel 16.

Bose Wave Music System only £560.

He's doing the demo!

Mickey Spillane's Mike Hammer, starring Stacy Keach.

One of my favourite shows of the 1980s, of course it doesn't matter how many channels you pay for they never repeat it so I bought the DVD (used since it is out of print) but turns out to be the 1997 version that got cancelled after one season. Oh well at least I have never seen these episodes but they are not as good as the old ones. Back to Amazon marketplace for me...

Thanks but that is the one I bought mistakenly thinking it was the 1980s series.

Done some further - ahem - investigation and it turns out that the 1984-86 series was never released on DVD. Not a problem I'll see if I can get the VHS - nope, never released on VHS either. WTF?

The only way to get to see this show again is to find someone who taped them back in the day and is willing to sell copies. I'm not happy.

typical..probably got dumped.

im watching Wonders of the Universe with Brian Cox on yesterday channel..have it on dvd as well

Some Like It Hot. Earlier today I promised myself I would watch this again as a line came up in conversation so here goes. Still one of the great films of my time.

As always, thoroughly enjoyable film, topped by Joe E Brown's lovely performance as the ageing millionaire lothario. Joe was a wonderful character throughout his life, starting in vaudeville then becoming a pro baseball star, yet turning down a chance to play for the N Y Yankees to stay in entertainment. During the war he was the first to tour all the dangerous outposts to entertain troops out of his own pocket. A true gent and as class an act as there ever was.

watching David Lean's Great Expectations starring John Mills as Pip and Findlay Currie as Magwitch. the best adaptation by far. it is on more4
