    Was that the Hugh Jackman, Sir Ian McKellen and Sir Patrick Stewart show? If it was, that was hysterical ... Ian McKellen is hilarious

    Norton does well with his guests, I like his format.

    Always cleverly written with a killer twist at the end. The last episode was oh so dark but I love this show {[]

    The Persuaders has started reshowing on True Entertainment, channel 61 in the UK, and home of The Avengers (but not the Cathy Gale ones).

    John Barry's theme song is the fabbest thing ever, esp over the South of France credits.

    In the episode I saw, the 'locker room' style banter between Tony Curtis and our Rog had dated a bit :# , but I will look forward to the rest. :)

    Something to look forward to in this period of Bond darkness even if it end up cheesy :))

    Despite his flaws I do like listening to Lazenby

    I've been watching the rebooted Thunderbirds Are Go series with my 6-year old (my excuse anyway :)) ) and I have noticed that the music is very much influenced by both CR and MR. Anyone else think the same?

    I recomend you watch the crime series "Valkyrien" when it becomes available where you live :)
    First rate Scandinavian Noir.

    while filming for the Grand Tour.

    In the UK, True Entertainment 61 has begun to show the Honor Blackman Avengers stuff. Last night, I saw the very first one of these I'd ever seen, and I'm in my 40s!

    It was noirish, none of the Avengers theme tune, a bit Maltese Falcon. Cathy Gale didn't have her leather catsuit and Steed was Steed with his bowler and brolly, but a bit spark, livelier than usual, a bit spare.

    It appeared to be shot live, so there were no outside scenes and it was all a bit stagey and dialogue heavy. Like the TV version of Casino Royale, if you've seen that.

    Afterwards, they showed The Man from Uncle, but being set on the Siberian express, it too was not the usual fare. Still, all this may pick up.

    The answer to the thread question this week is ...... no.

    I'm heartened to hear it's not only the UK that has poor TV from time to time or most of the time!!

    Well, David Suchet's documentary about the deciple Peter is actually quite interesting.

    And every Easter the radio has a travelogue quiz - "The Easter Labyrinth". The producers are incredibly good at coming up with interesting questions that are hard to google. It's been running every Easter since 1987 and I (among many others) can't imagine a worthy life without it :)

    A simple idea, brilliantly executed.

    I love this programme.
