It occurred to me after I had posted that “Endeavour” contains the only line from a tv series that has ever stuck in my head, when his boss says: “You’d find something suspicious in a saint’s sock drawer”!

I bet it was Thursday that said that to Morse 😂

My son and I love Endeavour and hated it when it came to an end but we have both watched it again.

I am watching The Brothers on Talking Pictures TV.I saw it back in 1972 when I was pregnant with DS2, it brings me happy memories.
Another one I watched at that time was Budgie starring Adam Faith.The day DS2 was born there was an episode on.I had given birth to him by caesarean section under General Anaesthetic, and was just surfacing from it when I heard the theme tune playing on the Ward TV.I can remember shouting ''Can I get out of bed to watch Budgie?''a nurse shouted back ''No you cannot''.I went back to a whoozy sleep again, but still felt I wanted to watch it!

Oh Jane43, us too. The last episode was just sublime. John’s beautiful eyes in the mirror. Tears were shed her.

Schindler’s List. Again, now. Rips my heart out.

Last Tango in Halifax! Love it

The Ladykillers
Brideshead Revisited
Jewel in The Crown
Sean the Sheep

I’ve just watched a film new to me - Operation Mincemeat on iPlayer, it’s an updated version of The Man Who Never Was about the plot to make the Germans think an invasion would take place on Greece rather than Sicily.
Although it didn’t get the greatest reviews when it first came out, I really enjoyed it, mostly because of the stellar cast. I always enjoy Colin Firth, Jason Isaacs and Penelope Wilton and even small parts were played by well kent faces, e.g. Simon Russell Beale as Churchill. Yes, it’s a bit improbable in parts, e.g. no bomb damage in London and I admit it’s a bit slow at times but I definitely recommend it.
There’s actually a great choice of fairly old films on iPlayer just now, including one of my all time favourites The Searchers.

We watched it last week. I’d been wanting to see it for ages because it also has Johnny Flynn in it but he only has a minor role. My partner really enjoyed it. I wish they wouldn’t always have to add love stories to films that imo don’t really need them, though.What I would like to rewatch is Life After Life ( also about WWII) which was on the BBC a few years ago. I bought all of Kate Atkinsons books after seeing it. I’ve just remembered that the series about The Mitfords is on catchup somewhere ( I spotted it whilst channel hopping last week but then forgot about it).

Downton Abbey
Gone with the Wind
The Towering Inferno
Silence of the Lambs
Gregory's Girl
Clockwise

Greyduster - I laughed at that too .
I think that there was a Morse in which Morse says , " when did this adoration of the fishing rod take place ?"
He always had a pithy way of expressing himself.
And John Thaw could portray it .

Real oldies, The Pallisers and Upstairs, Downstairs.

The Way We Live Now - another TV version of Trollope and IMO very well done, with a superb David Suchet in the villainous lead.

Blithe Spirit

All the Joan Hickson Miss Marples

I’d watch Last Tango In Halifax again.

Ditto The Detectorists
The original Rebus series

The Tamarind Seed is a 70s film I’ve watched many times - hardly anybody else ever seems to have heard of it. It featured Julie Andrews in her first ‘non sweet’ role, and Omar Sharif as the Russian who’s trying to recruit her as a spy - or is he? Some superb twists, and very menacing old Cold War/KGB vibes.

Outlaws, a 2004 TV series starring Phil Daniels and Ray Emmet Brown.

My son said he shed so many tears during Endeavour.

Shirley Valentine, Pretty Woman

Do you ever wish you could erase a particular show from your mind, so you could have the joy of watching it afresh again?

Not really as I see/ hear parts that I missed the first time.
I can’t tell you how many times I’ve watched Laurence of Arabia and The Life of Brain but still see/hear little snippets that I’ve missed.

Also:
My 600 lb life
The Sound of Music
The Italian Job
Mommie Dearest
Airplane
Pride and Prejudice
Sense and Sensibility
Any Agatha Christie with Joan Hickson as Miss Marple
A Dark Adapted Eye

Oh, flip! I forgot that one. I've watched it twice, and will again.

Mortal Kombat (1995)
Also last years i watch again series of my childhood (1990's) - Highlander, X-Files

I'm watching the re-run of 'A Very Peculiar Practice' on BBC Four and still find it hilarious. Although, I did catch myself gasping at the amazingly sweet and youthful Peter Davison and thinking: 'Blimey, he's David Tennant's father in law now'!

I saw it the other night. But was disappointed to find that it was filmed at Keele University as I always thought it was Salford where my husband studied. I loved it at the time. I love anything with Barbara Flynn in ( must rewatch The Beiderbecke Affair/Tapes). Have resolved to rewatch The Lord of the Rings films. Keep seeing snippets on instagram and remembering how much I loved them…but wonder if I should buy the directors cut version.

My boys always find it funny that when they call I’m still watching’ heartbeat’ and Mary berry cooking is always a favourite. I also have a hidden penchant for Christmas films even in July!

Mine find it funny that I still watch dvd's and listen to cd's.

Series:
Miss Marple with Joan Hickson
Poirot with David Suchet
Midsummer Murders

Films:
The Godfather 1&2
Some like it Hot
Zulu
The Italian Job
Halloween
Die Hard

These days, I don’t watch fiction.
I watch Documentaries on any subject.
For light entertainment, I watch the old comedy duos, like The Two Ronnies, Open All Hours.
Not so keen on Morecambe and Wise.

I've just watched Sound of Music for the umpteenth time.

My youngest daughter has headed off to Salzburg and Vienna and they're going on the Sound of Music tour.

Her husband had never seen it so we had a viewing.

I've seen Jaws more times than I can remember. Quite besotted with it when a teen when it came out.

And all 3 of James Dean's films.
