    It might have been carrying nuclear material, gold or even Hitler and Eva fleeing Berlin (having left doubles to commit suicide)

This is the supreme test. It is the glory of Lincoln that, having almost absolute power, he never abused it, except on the side of mercy".

They are afraid of words and thoughts: words spoken abroad, thoughts stirring at home -- all the more powerful because forbidden -- terrify them. A little mouse of thought appears in the room, and even the mightiest potentates are thrown into panic.”

    Terry Thomas was a brilliant actor. One of my favourites is 'How to Murder your Wife' he did with Jack Lemmon, hilarious and clever.

    Yes that's one of my favs. Got the porridge series on today. Really, ages well, and shows Barker as such a great comic actor.

    Just added these to the DVD collection.



    Not seen Hopscotch for half a lifetime. I think it was Grant that mentioned it recently, so I tracked a copy down.

    Now which one do I watch first?

    Logan's Run was IMO a crap film - not even mitigated by the young females running around bra-less.

    I think it has improved with age. Compared to modern scifi films it's pretty good.
