the age for nostalgia...
« on: 21 November 2010, 21:16:34 »

As I approach my 50th I find myself getting ever more nostalgic. Recently got bought some DVDs of tv programmes and movies from my childhood inc the johnny weissmuller/maureen o'sullivan Tarzan collection (always seemed to be shown on a saturday morning along with old flash gordon and laurel and hardy films), the usual gerry anderson stuff, Belle et sebastien and The Flashing blade. Trying to get hold of Voyage to the bottom of the sea and land of the giants but theyre mostly US import only. Anyhow, watched a couple of episodes from The Flashing blade tonight. All very hammy now but nice to wallow in a bit of childhood nostalgia. The better half thinks im just sad of course  ;D. Anyone else remember it-and its theme song ?

I'm too young to remember most of those.. but I started (re-)watching Buck Rogers recently.. oh boy, it did not seem nearly as camp as it does now when I originally watched it ;D

What about The Prisoner?

Look out for the giant white bubble!
