    A Hitchcock film or something from the mid 20th century classics stable like Rebecca, East of Eden, The Bridge on the River Kwai or Cleopatra.

    Whisky Galore, the original version, gives a lad a great respect for The Sabbath.

    Zulu is to Sunday afternoon the way Die Hard is to Christmas.

    The Great Escape or Magnificent Seven. Or any movies from that era because you never really see movies like that anymore. Good way to enjoy a Sunday afternoon.

    Kelly's Heroes, The African Queen, Rear Window, Mister Roberts.

    Kelly's Heroes was on one of the English channels on Fri evening. Was nicely settled down watching it when we had a bloody powercut. But I'd put money on it that it'll be on again before the end of the long weekend.
