Watched TMWTGG last night as part of my Rogerthon and it really isn't very good. It has the most stupid comedy moments of any film and when it isn't being inane is downright dull. Take Christopher Lee out and it's pretty dismal to be honest. Give me…

Although Serra's Experience Of Love is hands down the worst track ever written for a Bond film its over the end credits and I can ignore it. Overall his GE score is very unique and although not very Bondian in the classical sense it does work very w…

The thing is objectively SP's score isn't horrific. It has its good points. But I can't forgive Newman's laziness so it will always be bottom three for that alone.

Murdock wrote: » Newman's lazy score makes Michel Legrand's score for NSNA sound amazing. =)) Careful. Much as I am with you on when it comes to slating Newman it's going a bit far to say SP's score is worse than NSNA.

From the Lee Smith comments above one has to ado the question 'What exactly did Thomas Newman contribute to SP?' It seems they just copy and pasted SF's soundtrack (which is blatantly obvious if first viewing of the film) and that was job done. …

Couldn't resist and just went and watched an episode. Pretty standard stuff - Terry takes home a bird (played by Suzi Quatro for some reason that I couldnt really fathom - cue shoehorned in segment of her singing in the Winchester) to find Arthur…

Absolutely top notch telly which along with Only Fools taught us all how to speak Cockney back in the day. I remember my parents letting me stay up to watch it and at the time I just liked that it always ended with a bit of a rumble. It was only lat…
