Ronbo Just want to let you know that I, and a small group of like-minded friends, really love watching these old films. It's almost like time-travelling to our youth. Thank you so much. Cheers.
Music was already free in the sixties. All you needed was a tape recorder and a radio. You had to wait for the songs you wanted, but they were usually played every hour or so. The main annoyance was if a DJ spoke over the start or end of a song.
The original 1980 series was good, though I recall almost nothing about the few episodes I managed to catch. Any opinions on how this compares with the original 1980 series?
IC - Many thanks for season 1 and 2 of Warship 1973. I've never heard of it so maybe it wasn't broadcast in my country. Any chance of getting Seasons 3 and 4? Thanks for keeping us oldies (and maybe some not so old) entertained. ...
Thought it was a bio-pic of Shirley Bassey - what a BIG VOICE for a Lady only 5′ 3″ (1.60 m). And "Good looking, so refined". There is a bio-pic about her - Shirley (2011) - unable to find.
I was 11 or 12 when it first aired. in my country. I can't remember much about it except that the final episode WAS memorable. I still remember that song too. The climax made no sense to me. I thought that maybe the writers had just run out of i...
Thanks for this. However, if anyone wishes to upload a pack size of around 4 to 6 Gb it would meet my requirements better. Anything much larger than that, like those currently on TGx that start at around 17 Gb, is too much for my data allowance. I...
Thanks ic, this sounds like an interesting series. There's only 1 review on IMDb:- Not the whole story Episode 3 [ of season 01] is about the 1918 influenza epidemic. There is lots of good material and good speculation about the disease, ...

Please ignore the above post. I just performed a side by side visual comparison of the two videos and this one appears to be the better quality. The image is noticeably sharper right from the opening credits and the first few minutes of the movie. ...
For anyone who prefers 1080p rather than 720p, it's readily available (free) on YouTube. From the comments on YT, it sounds like it's worth seeing, especially for fans of 50's westerns. Cheers All.
@LEGINDS - The deaths were widely reported in the world media and led to the then governments downfall. Arrivals by air gets almost no media attention. Both major political parties avoid discussing it like the plague. I heard about it on a TV show, m...
I keep a record of my viewing. It contains brief comments. I seldom watch something a 2nd time. For this film it is as follows:- Yesterday (2019) - 1st viewing = in 2020 - songs okay but long and tiresome story. A better singer would help. ...
Fact> Australia introduced offshore detention because over a 1,000 people died at sea. Offshore detention discouraged people from undertaking a dangerous sea voyage. Each week 2,000 "smart" people arrive by air and then disappear into t...
Christopher Columbus was born in the Republic of Genoa, so he was Genoese. The first people to discover the North American continent were those who migrated across the Bering Sea land-bridge at least 13,000, and some claim 20,000, years ago. Al...
It's funny how the current narrative in Australia says that all the various indigenous tribes existed in peace and harmony before white people arrived. They never resorted to tribal warfare. They never stole land, women or food from weaker tribe...
In Australia the Conservative Right Wing government introduced an automated data-matching system in 2016. The system became know as the "Robodebt scheme". Four years later that same government announced that it would scrap the debt recovery...
From the description it sounds a bit kinky, but being made in '52 I doubt it is. Image how racy such a movie would be if made now, and how rubbishy it would be. Thanks Coaster.
Usually I don't watch this genre but it had an IMDb rating of 7 so gave it a go. It starts out slow but it held my attention. A couple of times I almost stopped watching but the acting was good and I just wanted to give it a chance. Watched it t...
My wife is a big fan of true crime series. We seldom watch TV together now, not like in the days of VHS rental when we'd watch several movies together on the weekend and "Friends" and a...

Can anyone get a good copy of "The Defiant Ones (1986)". There's a 360p copy on YouTube but that's the best I've been able to find. The movie is a remake of "The Defiant...
Lawman (1958) 4 seasons 156 episode I missed many of these classic western series as a kid because we lived so far from a major city and even though we had a tall antennae we couldn't receive ...
New to forum guys so please forgive any mistakes I may make. I've searched for these movies here and elsewhere but no joy so far. The Street Lawyer (2003) The Devils Advocate (...
