John

I could not agree more, [Smile]

back in the 90s I bought all four Armchair Odeon VHS tapes plus "Hollywood UK", "A Skeleton In Your Lap!", "A Dream Fulfilled" and "A Lion In Your Lap!" all great stuff.

At the moment I have replaced the VHS versions with Armchair Odeon Reel one, two and three 2 disc DVD versions plus The Men Behind The Movies Parts one, two and three all these DVDs produced by Keith Wilton are excellent and are well worth getting I bought mine through Derann.

Very highly recommended [Smile]
