Bilbraborn 1,594 Posted September 24, 2013 Report Share Posted September 24, 2013 Quatermass and the Pit. When Quatermass was on the TV my mum watched it from behind the settee. I am a big fan of all the Carry on films. Also films like Passport to Pimlico, and the Crazy Gang. I also remember two films starring Jack Warner. One was 'The Blue Lamp', in which the copper played by Jack Warner got killed. Despite this it was the idea for the TV series 'Dixon of Dock Green'. The other film was 'Train of Events'. An absolute must for all of us railway nuts. When I was little, my parents took me to see a film (at the Ilko Road Picture House) called 'Don't go near the water'. Can anyone remember this film?

shears 0 Posted September 24, 2013 Report Share Posted September 24, 2013 Don't remember this film but this made me remember a song I think was called don't jump of the roof dear ? If this is the title does anybody know the words. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
tomlinson 879 Posted September 24, 2013 Report Share Posted September 24, 2013 'The Belles of St Trinians'. The sequels weren't up to much but Alister Sim films are always worth a look. 'An Inspector Calls'; 'Green For Danger'; 'Laughter in Paradise'; 'Hue and Cry'. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

tomlinson 879 Posted September 24, 2013 Report Share Posted September 24, 2013 'Hobson's Choice' has always been a favourite of mine. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Bilbraborn 1,594 Posted September 24, 2013 Report Share Posted September 24, 2013 I did like the Great St. Trinian's Train Robbery. A bit cheesy but good for train buffs. I saw the 'Tommy Steele Story' and 'The Duke Wore Jeans' at the Ilko Road Picture House. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
