    Review That Poignant Film Which Touched Your Heart?

    Yes, striking some lovely chords of fellow-feeling with your list (and a healthy few never-even-heard-of s too) If you love Salmon Fishing... have you tried Little Voice? (Mr McGregor on equally good form) Also I like Field of Dreams (but have any Yorkshirewoman's total lack of baseball...

    Review The Assignment (2016)

    When did that ever stop a good (or adequate, or frankly useless) storyteller? Thank you for that, though. At least now I know you're talking about a film I've never heard of before, so feel significantly less bewildered than I did before.

    Review Doctor Who (2005)

    BRILLIANT! (hmm, must be quoting some Doctor or other...) That's a hugely fun anthology of covers in a very short space of time, thank you for all the effort, and of course, for including a bonus #2 Master. I wonder who did win the day out, and what they got up to

    Review Doctor Who (2005)

    Ducking further Doctor Who threads till I catch up on the Christmas special - this is me, fingers in ears going lalalalala Doctor O - you speak of the long-lost-to-civilisation entity know as the Radio Times - I am somewhat moved by nostalgia

    Review The Assignment (2016)

    OK I'll bite - what on earth are you talking about this time? Just a film/ show title would help, you know....

    Fun Cooking

    Fair enough (and good evening to you, sir) - but probably not half as much as she wanted to smack the twittish parents time after time ... I gather you have successfully reared the next generation of Metals without TV personality interventions, and survived with soul and sanity intact, so you...

    Serenity - before checking whether anyone used it before - because I WANT to say it! - just checked - and amazed no one has bagged it before - thanks all for leaving it for me...:emoji_laughing:

    Fun A, B, C's Of Film Titles

    Well a vampire cookery show is about the only thing TV chefs haven't tried... quick! Pitch it to the Food Channel before someone else reads this Crikey I've dragged this so far off-topic: think of a film, think of a film... Queen Christina

    Review The John Lennon Assassination

    I hadn't heard that before - thanks. Thing is, I think he said he only shot Lennon to be famous - so the temptation to shoot the shooter in a fairly gun-fixated society must be worth avoiding, if only for the likely bystanders's sake

    Review The John Lennon Assassination

    It was that awful "you'll never forget where you were" moment. Even if he's served his sentence in full, the likelihood of being shot down himself within days of release is probably too high to risk -has anyone asked him how safe he'd feel walking down a street again?

    Morning Duzit! Embarassed to tell you how long it took me to figure out you were referring to Lady and the Tramp, not Nosferatu. :emoji_nerd:

    Review The Rocky Horror Picture Show (1975)

    Totally - when I was still at school I remember hearing Ian McKellan reading the Beaufort Scale (Met Office official scale of wind speeds)- if an actor can make that interesting, what can't he do?

    Fun Foods You Won't Eat!

    Raw onions - raging indigestion - will cheerfully munch pickles though Offal - (unless in pate, haggis, salami or any other highly spiced configuration) - never said it was logical - school liver (grey, scuzzy with protruding tubes..) might be to blame. Olives with anchovy in: odd, because...

    Review The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring (2001)

    That'll do for Beren - something MUCH stronger for Appendices I feel - falling-down waters of great age and mellowness, with a guaranteed curry afterwards. Then count me in :emoji_blush:
