Jut in case people need reminding about this classic horrendously funny movie. These are just the opening snipets! - RomlaMemberI guess it could be a generational thing - I oscillate between a book and a screen with inclement weather or after surgeries.
- AfraserMemberWell, there are at least 2 of us. I was lucky and didn't spend much time at home. Also I like watching movies on the BIG screen.
- iserbrownMemberEach time I see this post come up the page I smile to myself and think I must be the odd one out! Can't recall watching anything much at all. I guess we are all different and I just love my own environment here
Take care and enjoy the binge watching whilst you can - RomlaMemberThe Australian drama series Mystery Road I enjoyed this year.
- kmakmMember@"Kiwi Angel" Game of Thrones is insanely addictive.
- Kiwi_AngelMemberGoT is another one.
- primekMember@Sister if you persist with Marcella and see series 2. You see the unlikeable characters in a very different and surprising light. Trust me.
- arpieMemberActually, Youtube have a LOT of complete movies on them too - just go to Youtube & put the movie name in & you may find it there!!
I managed to get a copy of El Cid - now THAT one will really test your memory banks ....... I bet no-one else remembers that one??
(Charlton Heston as the 'White Knight' up against the Muslim Hordes during the Crusades .....) and I have yet to watch it! We may just watch it tonight! :) I was only a kid when I saw it but have fantastic memories of it - hope I am not disappointed!! - RomlaMemberHave a look at YouTube @sister most/ if not all of the UK up series is online.Just a sad point one of the girls from the East End has passed away - Lyn the librarian and Apted with crew filmed a bit of the funeral which will be in 63 up.You might find the Australian series there too - similar projects were filmed all around the world.
