WHat about him firing an arrow out of the window before he dies?

At whom?


It's supposed to mark the place where he wants to be buried, isn't it?

Yeah but he might hit someone. Basic H&S.


In 1066 and all that, the arrow hits the Sheriff of Nottingham.

You killed my brother, prepare to die! (Sorry, I'm a bit behind the rest of you).

Is this Ivan thingy streaming free somewhere?

We could do Tai's comedy next. Then maybe switch back to a bit more Pre-B7 Heaven?

The main hero builds a time machine. The thief and the manager Bunsha who looks like the tsar Ivan the Terrible find themselves in the past. Bunsha impersonates the tsar, and Ivan the Terrible tries to live in the future.

That'll be a great warm-up for WET GECKO on October 1st, which features Ivan very prominently

SO WHERE CAN WE WATCH IT???
"You're not sulking, I hope?"
 
Cygnus Bazza
This is all too easy. Shouldn't we be doing more arguing?
 
AnneArthur
OK, at the end now. That was a bit of an anticlimax - no deathbed scene with Maid Marion, no final confrontation with the sheriff.

No, I am still here.

OK, I'll start the thread later, if that's OK with you all? Just the one 'episode' (a film) by the look of it, so start thinking ( and arguing) about another suggestion for the week after next.

There's a star-studded 70s thriller with David Jackson in a neat cameo role as a copper

You can try. You already know that zelyony means green.

So it's goodnight from me, and Спасибо, Taiellin.

Actually, I'm not going to bed yet.

A great start!
Goodnight.

OK, well thanks for introducing me to that, although it wasn't the most entertaining version of Robin Hood I have ever seen. Looking forward to Ivan the Manager next week, though!
