TIME: 7.45pm Based on the novel by Antonia Barber - it's a children's classic. https://youtu.be/G9c86hJCoj8?si=kYYZG...po54FtskIb Mr Blunden is played by Lawrence Naismith. He is wonderful in this as are the plethora of British stars who appear in the film too. Edited by OneSparePart on 05-12-2024 20:57 Silflay hraka, u embleer rah!

You're ready, I'm Freddy. I assume CB won't be here tonight with this rewatch not featuring either gruesome acting or monsters. Mind you, he did do BoD.

He might be writing more song lyrics, I suppose. Or another 'banned ficlet'. I've given up trying to double-guess him. How's things with you O 'Sublety' P? "You're not sulking, I hope?"

I have had a horrible cold for 2 weeks. My ears pop every time I blow my nose now. And you?

Here now. I've never heard of this either, but the start is promising - it's midwinter, and a widow and her children are leaving their house . . . |

Why am I the only one to have seen this? I thought it was required seasonal viewing along with The Railway Children. Also by Lionel Jeffries

Creepy children's rhyme - and a real one too, I know it from elsewhere. And I assume this venerable gentleman is Mr Blunden. |

Because we all have better things to do than watch TV all day every day. Although, I have to say, so far it's looking interesting. Hope it doesn't go all gooey.

OK. I thought it was Victorian, but it's Edwardian. |

How much do you bet that Diana Dors turns up as the cheery village lady who makes everything make sense?
