Re: TOP 10 satellite TV

falkor's TOP 10 satellite TV :JULY 2005

14JUL ITV Heartbeat the lovable rogue http://www.nicholasrhea.co.uk/heartbeat … Greengrass is the top character in the 1991 series

2 15JUL SC2 The Warriors (1979) I saw this at the cinema when it came out and it is wicked to see it on satellite TV now, rival gangs mete out street level violence and the rule of the jungle in a New York 24 hours that you'll never forget

3 9 JUL BBC1 Mad Max (1979) Mel Gibson in one of his best films! Y'know ....  how many trilogies actually stay to the quality of the original ?? How many? Well Mad Max is one of the few that keeps that level in place  - this is known as a post-apocalyptic film - civilisation has descended into a world without police, army or government, a chilling thought and an action packed film - no doubt about it!!

4 9 JUL ITV2 Tour de france highlights Hehe all those video shots from motorcycle pillions, I so much remember watching this stuff with my Dad, in fact that's where I got my liking for the Tour de France from, cause he watched it from noon to night, the miles those cyclers put in is phenonemal and great TV viewing I tell ya, especially with Eddie the Eagle riding uphill in 15th gear with a flat tyre - there are always thrills and spills on these routes - it's the only decent thing that France DOES!!!

5 9 JUL SM7 28 days later (2002) another post-apocalyptic film - this film divides into two distinct halves, the "survive in the city phase" and then the tottally different "survive with the army phase" - each are quite different halves of the same film but adding it all up - it's top late night viewing

6 11 JUL CH5 Columbo (1974) Those early Columbo series/ films were the corkers weren't they? In this one Columbo latches onto a crazed scientist who was supposedly killed by a weird drug addict BUT in fact it was the other way around - now WHO could've figured THAT out? and don't say the butler did it! I have a mack just like Columbo's and once had a car like his too

7 11 JUL CHALL who wants to be a millionaire Chris Tarrant is just THE quiz show MASTER to me, I got the CD that allows you to play the home version and it is such a great game. When the playstation version came out I got it at Christmas and it was so masssssive I tell ya, great game, great programme too

8 13 JUL ITV3 CHANCER what a wicked series this is, in this episode Stephen and Victoria decide to take their relationship to the next level

9 13 JUL BBC3 First Blood (1982) Sylvester Stallone is bullied by a small town US sheriff and exacts rollercoaster revenge as he escapes from custody into the woods and finally goes totally berserk mounting an unstoppable assault on the sheriff's police station and town, always worth a look for late night viewing

10 11 JUL SM2 Deepstar Six (1989) if you haven't seen Deepstar Six in the 15 years since it's release, catch it on satellite in the next few weeks, it's doing the rounds on Sky Movies and is well worth a look, underwater SCI FI at it's 1980s best, I can watch this a few more times so get the beers in and draw up a chair :-)

that's mine  lol now you!!
