Not a *great* film, but a lovely watch and pertinent to the forum, National Velvet hasn't been shown on TV for donkey's years.

Monocled Mutineer never been repeated and probably never will be.  Also baffling that Johnny Jarvis has not been repeated.

Report Jack Bauer "24" February 27, 2025 4:29 PM GMT
Last shown on BBC Two on 13 October 2024 and previously on BBC Four on 5 December 2023.

Most of these films have been shown over the last few years. The Manchurian Candidate has been on the BBC three times, Blazing Saddles was on BBC Four in May last year. Scum, Animal Farm and Rita, Sue and Bob Too have all been on Channel 4 or Film4, the latter is still available on demand.

I have been looking out for an early 70s UK film called 'Unman, Witttering and Zigo', 
starring the great David Hemmings, for decades, but it was never shown.

Only last week I got a notification to say it was on Paramount+ restored and with subtitles.
Surprised and really enjoyed watching it again.
