Talking Pictures!
« on: July 29, 2022, 08:37:25 AM »
       I'm starting to realise my telly only really needs one channel. Talking Pictures TV is a work of genius. There's usually something to captivate me daily; at the moment, I'm enjoying "The Cellar club" strand of movies - usually Hammer or Vincent Price oldies, but none the worse for that. Anyone else hooked? https://talkingpicturestv.co.uk/
"for, as long as but a hundred of us remain alive, never will we on any conditions be brought under English rule. It is in truth not for glory, nor riches, nor honours that we are fighting, but for freedom - for that alone, which no honest man gives up but with life itself."

Oh yes. There's a discrete subset of posters on here who appreciate that little gem of a TV channel.

I'm a fan too: I love the old British crime films from the 1950's: when men wore coats with broad belts that were nearly always fastened, women invariably wore high-heels and police cars had bells rather that sirens.

Plus almost all the programmes have sub-titles, which for me is essentlal.

Yes - they took me back The one I have yet to see is 'The Baron'. For some reason, I used to prefer that to 'The Saint'....but age means I can't for the life of me remember why.
