Bad acid maaaaan....
The random mind of a Silver Surfer...
If research was easy, it wouldn't need doing...
Staring at that event horizon is a dirty job, but someone has to do it; something's going to come back out of it one day...

...And why has Uwe popped into the thread twice to post about Clapton and The Band?

A Doctor Strangelove moment?

A Doctor Strangelove moment?

Or a Taggart moment.

America's answer equivalent (not sure which on came first from memory) to "MP and the HG" - could you make such films these days...?

You couldn't make Blazing Saddles again today, that's for sure. Holy Grail, maybe, but would it be understood?

It's still hugely popular though, and not just with the old folks. The question is whether Hollywood could come up with scriptwriters who could write anything that funny.

When you said Taggart moment, my first thought was this. http://www.itv.com/drama/taggart/

I haven't heard that of that one. Hopefully it will get over here. I love most of the UK crime dramas. Real acting and good scripts.

I never watched it but dad was a big fan... Most unusually the actor in the lead role died and rather than try and replace him or change the title they just kept going, and it worked...

Chris was on drugs most likely. He tends to be.

Drugs make the feeling of being hungry go away.

:) Plastic guitars was just a temporarily assignment to set up some marketing things:)
