Scarlet Street (Fritz Lang, 1945)
Eddie G is pitiful and Dan Duryea is superbly sleazy in this wonderful noir from Lang. The desperation in Chris Cross’ bond with crook Kitty is palpable. The way this acts as the catalyst for his already miserable life to fall completely apart is wrenching.

Rhoda, "Jack's Back" (CBS TX: 9th April 1978)
Julie Kavner is SO funny in this scene. Her years as Marge Simpson mean her skill as a physical comedian were wasted!

According to Sheldon Hall's ARMCHAIR CINEMA, the first TV showing of THE GREAT ESCAPE was 28 December 1971, so the WHATEVER HAPPENED TO THE LIKELY LADS Christmas special from 24 December 1974 must mark the birth of the joke, "it must be Christmas, THE GREAT ESCAPE's on TV."

Is it a coincidence that #Tracey ( #JaneSlaughter) is the only living #EastEnders character Nigel saw in his fantasy? Who let him in the pub? Is Tracey really Zoe's stalker? Is she orchestrating all the disasters?

December 1966 - #PeterCushing and #PatrickWymark in THE SKULL - the thinking behind this double-bill seems to be that both Wymark and #MichaelParks play characters called Marco.
