Was it Film 4 or Channel 4 that showed that one as their first film? The answer is buried too deep in my head to recall...

[bopeepsheep.livejournal.com]

It does!

However, Charlie and Lola 7 is also out today and that's got to be my DVD for the month... :)

Channel 4's second night of transmission - 3 November 1982. (I knew it was C4 without checking, but I looked up the date...)

[gaspodex.livejournal.com]

DOn't think I know that one ?

[gaspodex.livejournal.com]

It was the first C4 funded movie I think too and was werird for being one of th efirst movies in the uk shown on TV before going to a (not that sucessful) cinema run ..

Its still a film I have a huge soft spot for - but i guess you would have to be in the right age bracket ...

This is probably because you have no one under four feet tall in your home. ;-)

Charlie and Lola are aged 7 and 4 respectively and live in a world with no visible grown-ups and a lot of fantasy (Lola refuses to brush her teeth because there's a lion in the bathroom using her toothbrush; she can't have a bath because of the whales in the water). They're very cute indeed and have a theme tune that makes narenek dance and bounce about. :)

lol. Does he publicly admit to that to lol

[gaspodex.livejournal.com]

Hmm - I've also noticed he hasn't friended me ... *sulk*

That's because he's crap, more than anything else. Don't take it personally.

Just beat him with a 10' pole next time you see him :)

*Thwack!!*

Oops, sorry wimble, that wasn't aimed at you :)

[bopeepsheep.livejournal.com]

Deadlier than a custard pie...

[bopeepsheep.livejournal.com]

Pfft, it took him ages to friend me. I wouldn't take it personally. It's not like he actually writes in his own LJ anyway. :)

Of course, he's probably too young to have watched P'tan Yang. Should make him squirm entertainingly.

[bopeepsheep.livejournal.com]

Heh. Don't think I don't set these things up, you know.

He'd have been 6.5, so no, probably means nothing to him.

[wimble.livejournal.com]

That's got his next birthday present sorted then ;-)

There, does that help with the resistance?

[wimble.livejournal.com]

Not really.

Now put the big stick down, and step away slowly.

Or I'll send my Lore Master after you, and show you how to really use a big stick...

[teawith.livejournal.com]

OMG yes! I loved that film! We should have a nostalgia watching of it or something...

[gaspodex.livejournal.com]
