------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Must mention this terrific show, one of my top five shows. Liked all the "eras" of the 60's series and didn't mind The New Avengers...

Thanks for the link Alpha, Yes an interesting ending that certainly would have caught people out but as you say the show wouldn't have had the kudos and enigmatic quality that has kept it in the forefront of cult tv for fifty years. My understanding is that McGoohan was deeply angered by the...

Must include this as the granddaddy of cult tv. What an incredible series, McGoohan was a genius giving us a seventeen episode video puzzle of enormous complexity and density , whilst making it entertaining Made in the sixties but still relevant today as a commentary on the dehumanizing of the...

If it's a woman then there's some very good candidates. Tamsin Greig Olivia Coleman Or as a choice from left field Jennifer Saunders.

Yes, brilliant series, have DVDs and watch it at least once a year. I if live long enough to get to the Moon as a tourist I fully expect to look something like this series. BBC got NASA advice with some of the designs. Favourite episodes; In Warm Blood Intelligent listening for Beginners Little...

Which episodes make your top three? And the worst? 1.Star One brilliant climax to everything Blake fought for, Servalan becomes President, Travis dies, Blake and Avon's touching final scene. 2. Pressure Point I was shocked as a teenager watching this, Gan's death was out of the blue and so...

No I don't think Ogilvy was ever offered Bond. Like you I can't picture him in the role. Got all the Saint on DVD, very few turkeys in the 118 episodes. I've always felt the black and white years were better. The colour ones more or less are standard ITC fare, there was greater variety in the...

My favorite is the one where Bilko tries and succeeds to convince a visiting comedian that wood is very funny. Knotty Pine ...hahahaha Mahogany...hahahaha Bilko: Your catchphrase shouldn't be " I deedy deedy do", but "I woody woody wood.

Don't laugh but one of my favourites is Return of the Saint. Poorly received at the time, and not well thought of now, but I love it. Ian Ogilvy gives a new slant to Templar whilst being respectful to the original. Also lovely filming locations in Monaco, France Italy, rather than stock...

Thanks for compliment, yes an exact copy of Tom's one. Wearing it made me realise why he wore a shorter one for action scenes, it's not easy , it's really heavy. However freezing weather here in London has given me a rare opportunity to wear it.

Yep love it , got all DVDs, but I do feel the actors are getting a bit mature to be playing these parts. Season 10 I must admit I didn't rate , season 11 is much better and I liked all of it really. One question bugging me though is Rimmer on season 8 was flesh and blood of course , but a...

Shearsmith and Pemberton are geniuses, their next show Psychoville was almost as good.

Classic is great of course but there's some interesting recent ones that are cool. League of Gentlemen; Inside no.9; Lead Balloon; Outnumbered; Ideal; Black Books. Any fans out there?

Doctor: You're a very beautiful woman probably CITY OF DEATH Doctor: You know you're the classic example of the inverse ratio between the size of the mouth and the size of brain ROBOTS OF DEATH.

Any fans out there? Philip " I believe in reincarnation Rigsby, you die , are buried, feed the soil, crops grow , feed the next generation" Rigby " My God!! That's your idea of reincarnation, coming back as a bowl of Cornflakes!?" Alan " I'm going to leave my body to medical science,have it...

Yes BTH a favourite of mine, not passionately but late at night and bored you can always rely on 25 minutes of entertainment putting a BTH DVD on. Apparently Robin Stewart ( Mike) is still passionate about it and is involved in fan stuff.
