Does anybody recall a thirty minute drama about Agatha Christie broadcast sometime during the mid-seventies to early eighties on ITV. It's was a two handed play with Agatha Christie lying on her death bed where she is visited by Hercule Poirot coming from the 'afterlife' wanting to know the reasons why she hated him so much that she went out of her way to kill him off.

the very beautiful Judi Bowker was in several other productions, and I was lucky enough to see her on stage in a play in about Helen Keller in the early 1990s. Her beauty remains. Ms Bowker is most well-known as the lead in UK TV drama the Adventures of Black Beauty, but was also in a hippy film before that, Brother Sun, Sister Moon. She appeared in a sword and sandals flick not ...

Hugh Grant as Chopin? Strangely it worked in Impromptu (1991). No floppy hair, no scuffing feet. Could Hugh have been a real actor if he hadn't been sucked into RomCom hell? Judy Davis is fab, Julian Sands is a beautiful plank of wood and Mandy Patinkin, Emma Thompson and Bernadette Peters are as reliable as ever. Could have used Ralph Brown a bit more though.

This film has been played by a great many english actors but for me Robert Donat, Kenneth More and even Robert Powell! I have to say that the Robert Donat version for me was the classic a very good story loved this film

My favourite British film- found it really true to life and excellent performance from Peter Mullan.

Due to an earlier discussion elsewhere, I thought it might be a good idea to start a cookery/recipe thread. Most of us have a ‘signature dish’ that we can cook with our eyes shut – so would you like to share your recipe with the rest of the forum? Or maybe you’ve got a cookery problem or question that somebody else on here can solve or answer for you? Don't worry if it's just a ...
