GreenGiraffe22 Posted March 9, 2021 Share Posted March 9, 2021 I'm not remotely familiar with the film, I've never seen it, but I love that you have the exclusive rights.

RMweb Gold SHMD Posted March 9, 2021 RMweb Gold Share Posted March 9, 2021 Popcorn salted peanuts, beer, RMWeb open in front of me - this is one to follow for sure. The subject is great, (and with spoilers opening up everywhere to gain keep market share), who knows what is real or not? BUT... Who would be mad enough to launch on a date that nobody would take serious? (Well actually, Rapido might just be mad enough to do that!) As has been said " I can't wait" - either way!

AMJ Posted March 9, 2021 Share Posted March 9, 2021 @Hilux5972 what do you do until the pub is open? (Sorry for a direct quote from this film!) This and other Ealing studio films are a must watch, many will "see" preservation schemes in this. DVD copies are available for a few £ 5 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
