Carry on Forever.. Quite sad that most the original carry on team are long gone. Carry ons were an important part of my life as a kid.. Its a shame kids don't watch old stuff like that these days instead of filling their heads with shit. :rolleyes:

The Duellists (Film4 now)
One of my favourite films. A story of love, honour and pig headed stupidity as two officers in Napoleon's army fight numerous duels to settle a point of honour that becomes less and less why they fight. Keith Carradine and Harvey Keitel are the main protagonists. Beautiful film, fabulous costumes and some truly bloody duels, Ridley Scott's first film and despite it being small scale re budget it is epic re scope.
The film is sited as being an accurate portrayal of Napoleonic period military conduct and uniform changes.

Must say I also love the way the women look in this film.

Two Way Stretch 1960 starring Peter Sellers, Bernard Cribbins, Wilfrid Hyde-White and the ever loved Irene Handl. Top film this as Sellers arranges to steal some diamonds while in prison, thus having the perfect alibi.
Yes, that is a truly excellent film. The realisation that Keith Carradine has got the better of Harvey Keitel, and that Keitel has to now retire in disgrace is utterly moving.
Fabulous attention to detail, superb location shots, great actors - this is Ridley Scott's fine directorial debut.
War and Remembrance. Herman Wouk's follow up book to The Winds of War, and made into a mini series in 1988; starring Robert Mitchum and the lovely Victoria Tennant in lead roles with Polly Bergen, Topol John Guilgud and Robert Hardy among the many supporting stars. Both these books are among my favorites and these series are pretty good..
The death camp scenes are hard going, although people should always be reminded of what can happen if your guard is let down...should be shown in schools
Currently watching Dusty Springfield at the BBC on yesterday channel. Boy did she were some get-up's lol. add in the Quaffed hair and you have the quintessential superstar of the 60's ..... Cilla was there too in a ridiculously short skirt....legs are rather better than I remember and go all the way to yaya:lol:

Working my way through a box set of The Prisoner (about halfway through now). I must have seen this first time around, but apart from the opening credits none of it rings a bell.
