Given that it deals with Faeries etc, there are obvious parallels with Harry Potter. However, I found it much less twee than HP and much preferred the way that faeries were portrayed compared to HP. Well worth a watch if you're into all that fantasy pish, like me. Glad to hear that, the movie was stuck in "development hell" for a good few years.

shull Posted June 14, 2020 Author Report Share Posted June 14, 2020 Only took a couple of weeks. Will watch the final two episodes of Line Of Duty. It has been stunning and sensational and can't wait to settle down tonight and watch the finale while consuming a Chinese Meal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ayrshire Saints Posted June 15, 2020 Report Share Posted June 15, 2020 Bring back Mind Your Language ( truly awful "comedy" over and above the racism). Huge Saturday night prime time viewing figures too in the 80s. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robert Lindsay plays a teddy boy and Brian Pettifer is the put upon Jock. Not sure how long it will be available given the current climate Edited June 15, 2020 by ALBIONSAINT Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bud the Baker Posted June 15, 2020 Report Share Posted June 15, 2020 (edited) Samson & Delilah with Victor Mature, Hedley Lamarr and not in picture George Sanders - letting Samson grow his hair back is proof that the Philistines really were stupid. I think it was Groucho Marx who said he preferred fillums where the leading lady had bigger breasts.

shull Posted June 15, 2020 Author Report Share Posted June 15, 2020 Finished watching the great Line Of Duty. I have a choice now. Killing Eve or Luther both from Series 1 Which will I watch first ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StanleySaint Posted June 15, 2020 Report Share Posted June 15, 2020 I would say Killing Eve, quirky and shorter than Luther, so if you don't enjoy it you can move on to the investment in the multiple series of Luther. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Bud, too late. I am halfway through the first episode of Luther and enjoying it so far I'll get to Killing Eve in a few weeks.

antrin Posted June 19, 2020 Report Share Posted June 19, 2020 I’m in that... after the Iran match. At the time, I was briefly gutted after the Dutch game. Soon got over it and enjoyed the rest of the tournament, even supported Holland in the final. (Cos they were European - my home... even though it’d hoped our hosts the Argies would win it until that day...) Worst bit of the whole experience was when Ayr United’s manager at the time, (can’t recall his name now) told me that, back in Scotland, St Mirren had sacked Fergie! THEN, I was really gutted. I’ve got over that too, now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wikipedia is my friend. AlexStuart. Really nice guy. Full back for Dundee clubs. In 1975, Alex took over from Ally McLeod as Ayr’s manager, when Ally went to manage some country or other... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alex_Stuart_(footballer) in 1978, Alex went to manage fake Saints. (He’s an east-coaster: there’s none of us perfect, they say...). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

faraway saint Posted June 21, 2020 Report Share Posted June 21, 2020 Just catching up with the first episode of the new series of George Clarke's Amazing Spaces. He's just visited a very unique build in Chile. he has seen some amazing buildings but this, for me, was one of the best. At first glance a concrete monstrosity. It really isn't, quite stunning.
