I was watching a movie on telly earlier today. It was ‘Oz the great and powerful’. Oddly, recently, I was sent a link to a ‘parody’ version of that film by someone. I couldn’t watch the ‘real’ version with a straight face. Has that happened to anyone else?

I can't watch Downton Abbey because I saw the butler chap, actor Jim Carter
first in Top Secret.

He played a member of the French resistance called Deja Vu. When introduced to the hero he
said, "Haven't we met somewhere before M'Sieu?"



Other resistance members were Du Quois, D'Etant, Croissant, Souffle, a fighter 'of colour', Chocolate Mousse (Eddie Tagoe from
Dogs of War) and my personal favourite, Latrine.

About to be ambushed by the Germans, Chocolate Mousse was prepping his Tommy gun with a powder horn!

Thanks to the late Kenny Everett I can't watch Janet Stweet-Pawtah without creasing up. Seems that even now she doesn't like him, going by some remarks she made a few weeks ago.

His Bee Gees massa chew sets gets me going as well.

Angus Deaton, Micheal Fenton Stevens, and Philip Pope as the HeeBee GeeBees,
Here's a clip of them performing "Meaningless songs in very high voices"

Micheal Stevens and Philip Pope also had guest appearances in great episodes of OFAH see if you can remember which.

Kenny did another little aside, "The Bee Gees, great...don't they?"

I shall need a ticket to hell for this, but there is an advert for a charity that asks for sponsorship of young girls in Africa - ge tthem educated, away from chld marriage etc, a great cause I'm sure. The advert features a number of sponsors talking about how enlightening it is to do so, one of them is a dead ringer for Peter Kay doing his Geraldine character and I can't take it seriously. Next time you see the advert you'll see what I mean !

Wasn't Philip Pope the singer who couldn't pronounce his "R" sounds? Del booked him and Raquel to sing for the local gangsters and no-one asked why he didn't want to sing "Crying"?

Any film set in the British Isles around the dark ages/Knights Of The Round Table will be haunted forevermore by the ghost of 'Monty Python And The Holy Grail', no matter how good or how serious.

Jimmy Fallon and Justin Timberlake used to do a regular stint as "The Barry Gibb Talk Show" on Saturday Night Live in the US. Based on the real Barry Gibb famously losing his temper at some waitress sometime. e.g.:

Hmm, wasn't it Barry who led the walkout on the Clive James show? Always thought he was a humourless bugger.

I can't watch many of the Airport movies without thinking about Airplane. Particularly the nun and guitar scene from Airport 75.
