Great stuff hfink, look forward to the next 'films' edition

cheers Tim, and everyone, thanks for playing!

Nice one hfink

Thanks hfink, nice one!

Cheers Aspro. Maybe I'll try something else, I may be exhausted on filums!   I think the list also gives away my penchant for 1970s films! So maybe a bit too much bias towards one decade there!

Cheers pp, HGS.

That's all most of us can remember Anything recent is already forgotten

good stuff hfink, wd all!

I'm out of here guys, but if one is going for tomorrow I'll be here early afternoon, as usual. Have a great Sunday all!

Thanks NEC.

That's very true Aspro! 

And squares, I thought you did very well considering films is not your favourite subject. Much better than I do on songs & bands anyway!  (I can always remember films better than music, so I usually lean towards films.)

cheers h, I only looked in briefly.  Need the clues though.

I would have had some songs or bands lined up if I realised it would have gone so quickly.
