In Eyes Wide Shut, Bill Hartford and his wife, Alice, attend a party thrown by one of Bill's wealthy patients, Victor Ziegler. Here, he meets old friend Nick Nightingale, who, later, tells him of a engagement he has where he goes to a lavish ba…

Deep link PG, you must be a film buff/student. And for a cheese - drink. 2 things. On my computer, the little thumb nail image looks like Tom Cruise has a ball gag going on and Nicole Kidman's pants, so not sexy!

Taking a bit of artistic licence, and sticking with a bleak view of the future, attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion anyone?

From one dystopian future to another. Henry Purcell's Music for rhe funeral of Queen Mary. Written in 1695 then reinterpreted by Wendy Carlos for the opening sequence of Stanley Kubrick's A Clockwork Orange. Go Droogs !

anybody who loves keyboards and organs will get a kick out of this. Technology at its height ! Best thing is, about half way through, you get a view from the pipe room back towards where the manuals (keyboards) are, and there is a couch! Is this set…

Learnt something I never knew on the Jim Dale trip. I had only ever conceived Jim as an actor; particularly in Carry On films. What a surprise to discover he is much more than that. Actor, Comedian, Dancer, Tightrope walker ( in Barnum) pop singer (…

Upcoming Groovy Films & TV for 2014
A dug this thread out so pretend it says 2015 at the top. I fancy this new take on the Sherlock Holmes universe. It looks beautifully filmed. Ian McKellen seems to have lost his ability to transmute metal though !

Jim Dale was excellent last night. Famous to Brits from the Carry On series of films, and to Americans as the voice of Harry Potter in the audio books. The evening raised a notch in excitement prior to the start when a tall man with a large grey per…

But anyway, thanks for clarifying what you meant. I don't half miss That's Life ( a 70s TV show with a feature about odd shaped vegetables for you non-UKers). Miss Blackadder too. And the quirky songs of Jake Thakery.

@HellsBells I hope you enjoyed that Helen and it made your day !

What are you listening to now?
For their third movie, the Beatles planned a series of videos linked together based on the songs of Revolver, Rubber Soul and Sgt. Pepper. They eventually scrapped the idea and went instead with an animated movie that became A Magical Mystery Tour. …

*Poetry*
Not strictly poetry but the lyric of a great song with a very progressive and unusual structure. No chorus or middle 8, just what seems to be a never ending chorus. The words are inspired by the Tibetan Book of the Dead. If you want to hear what it…

Need a link UT, I can't think what you mean! Episode Beer Blackadder - when we were preparing the turnip surprise, we came across a turnip that was shaped exactly like a thingy. Baldrick - I found it particularly ironic, my lord, because I…

It is too quiet on here right now. So talk about anything.....
I thought it had all gone quiet so we could hear if there was any tapping.

As posted in the upcoming gigs thread, Mara was superb on Friday. Her set was 17 songs long and the best part of two hours long. She played a mix of her own stuff and some covers with a typical Mara twist like the Robert Palmer one posted elsewhere.…

@Appy61. You are someone famous ! It was a brilliant gig. Small, intimate venue. There were about 10 small round tables at the front with 4 or 5 chairs around them and we occupied one on the left. We eventually found we were sitting with Mara's…
