Not sure about this. Should you touch a classic?

Cast looks OK, looking forward to it. I've been listening to loads of the original radio broadcasts :xxgrinning--00xx3:

... usually the originals are better :smile:

:iagree: ... same with 'The Forsyte Saga' ... originals (and cast) in the 1968 BBC adaption were far superior to the version screened by ITV in 2001. :wink:

I wonder how the old boys would have dealt with todays threat from within?

Who do you think you are kidding Mr Choudary..If you think old England`s done! :icon_lol:

Personally, I will look forward to the film coming out.

Alas ... :anerikke: ... with the state of today's nation they'd reluctantly echo Private Fraser's words, :cwm24:"we're doomed!"


Personally, I will look forward to the film coming out.

Me too ... despite earlier misgivings. :smile:

I still watch it occasionally, great character actors.

Hope there won't be any twerking or girls with their baps out.
