To be honest I only managed to watch the first 5 mins of it last time it was on TV. Reading your description though, I've just queued it up in eMule :-) Give it about a week and I'll let you know.

Cheers Jim

About another 10 hours and I should have finished downloading the film Taffy. Seems to be problems getting hold of this one BUT I shall persevere :-)

Cheers Jim

At last ! Finally got around to watching it today, that didn't take long ! The film is brilliant and after watching it I think I will go out and buy the DVD ! Oh for the days when girls wore skirts all the time and not bloody jeans ! Cheers for that one Taffy, I should have watched it years ago :-)

I knew you'd enjoy it as it's a classic, but do you know it got remade badly with Sylvester Stallone in the leading role, but with no Gateshead Multi-Storey high-rise car park death action or Mini-Skirted girls etc, yes the Yanks made a pigs ear of it much like the mess they made of "The Italian Job" a few years back.

I was indeed aware of this. I usually make a point of NEVER watching remakes, especially of classic British films, they only serve to annoy me. The Italian Job being the most obvious, I vowed never to watch the remake, along with Hitchhikers Guide etc etc The next thing I suppose, after the Enigma machine rip off film will be a remake of how the merkins invented the bouncing bomb and how Barnes Wallace was battling Whittle to become president !!

What a couple of lonely bores!
