    And not to mention the kind of shit that has been going on in the UK for years with the grooming gangs that the  authorities have been turning a blind eye to for fear of being branded racist. Just ask Tommy Robinson, they threw him in jail just for trying to call attention to it. PC gone mad, and where are the feminists, SJW's, MSM?  Where is the rage machine over the rapes? Crickets as usual.

    "Robinson was not jailed for engaging in journalism, or for merely reporting on alleged criminality. He was jailed for violating a court order, breaching the terms of an existing suspended sentence, and potentially risking the collapse of an ongoing trial." https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/tommy-robinson-arrest/

    Brings a tear to the eye, Ady. You cannot think of Motörhead without thinking of the hallowed Hammersmith Odeon (yeah, I know it is called the Hammersmith Apollo now, but it will always be the Odeon to me). They should have a black banner permanently on the building in memorium of Lemmy...and fly a flag half-mast.

    The site is giving me problems trying to post photos, so here are the ones from Lemmy's tomb that I couldn't post last night.

    They took the whiskey and left the picks.

    Nice pics, Strider.

    I couldn't help thinking of how eerily quiet the inside of Hammersmith Odeon/Apollo would've been on those nights.  

  3. I watched The Hateful Eight last weekend. It's the best film I've seen for ages and in my opinion, Tarantino's best film since Pulp Fiction.

    I always think a good score is one of the most important things for a film and Ennio Morricone's is superb here. Tarantino also uses music from The Thing which works very well.

  4. Fright (1971)

    I was watching an interview with the late George Cole where he mentioned this film. He said that when he and Dennis Waterman were first cast in Minder, neither of them realised they had both appeared in the same film before! Anyway, I was intrigued enough to check the film out, especially when I saw the lovely Susan George was the lead.

    I found the whole film on youtube.

    Not a bad film overall. I especially liked the first half and the way the suspense built up. It reminded me of the early seventies Hammer films, but it is also very original and must have been an influence on later films like Halloween and When a Stranger Calls.

    Only Fools & Horses fans will also recognise a young Roger Lloyd Pack playing a policeman!
