The eye-shaped window at the rear of his car used to fascinate me... as did the waves on his belly.

Cannon had a mean way with a karate chop - anything to avoid running after someone.

The Rockford Files was a good one.

Not only interesting but very forward-looking, given that Magnum PI appeared in 1980, nine years before the Walls Magnum.

I offer 'Brannigan' starring John Wayne. Not great, but it carried you along and there's the novelty (for the 70s) of a Hollywood star - albeit an ageing one - plying their trade in London/the UK.

My cousin was in the movie. Said John Wayne was a good bloke, not luvvy.

Makes you wonder how many others they tried before settling on Sweeney Todd.

Palace Old Geezer Flag Midhurst 10 Oct 22 3.09pm Send a Private Message to Palace Old Geezer Add Palace Old Geezer as a friend

Poirot and Miss Marple come readily to mind, which I guess says a lot about my advancing years.

There's always Pat Garrett and Billy The Kid (although Billy was his first name), Carlito's Way, Serpico, Alias Smith and Jones, Frasier and Lady Chatterley's Lover (new version out soon).

 


Dad and I watched games standing on the muddy slope of the Holmesdale Road end. He cheered and I rattled.

Beg your pardon AS, I've just seen you already mentioned the Agatha Christie connection.
