The Dead Thread

[summerisle]

I remember Barry Cryer chairing a programme during the 70's called 'Jokers Wild', Mock the week nicked its format.
An enduring act and his work will live on through repeats of M&W and Two Ronnie's, he also wrote a lot of the Kenny Everett show. RIP Fella.

Smoker friendly programme. lol

I have read when you watch the film its slowed down because Bruce Lee was apparently so fast it looked speeded up in real time

Yeah that is true, a lot of Kung Fu films were, the best example is a film called the Prodigal Son, the fight scenes in that are all Wing Chun Kung Fu so all closed in fighting hand to hand and it's so fast when you watch it and that's after it's been slowed down.

Just to make it even more insane, the first fight scene in this video was apparently done in one take.

Italian actress Monica Vitti

Made some great films in the 60's.

L'Avventura is worth a watch if you get the chance, classic film.

It was a suitable tribute I paid last night by getting 5 questions correct on University Challenge (A new record for me)
