IMPORTANT - Is your Christmas Day routine acceptable?

[Sir C]

Sir C, your reminiscence of a Christmas childhood in which the smell of your Mumsy's mince pies wafted up your fully-functioning nasal passages really touched me
(sniff)

Aww, ty s. They were rank, mind. She couldn't cook at all, bless her.

[IUFG]

... but can you please relent from using the term 'Mammy'?
It reminds me too much of that bloke in drag

see, it is that type of Irisherness he cannot hide.

[Burney]

barrister mentions The Rolling Stones in court and His Lordship looks quizzical and says "The Rolling who?"

(I miss Rumpole)

For him not to have seen The Godfather in the 47 years it's been out does suggest an almost wilful attempt to avoid it, doesn't it? I mean you'd have seen it by accident, wouldn't you?

[Burney]

It's only a film, old boy. Two films.

You've never seen When Harry Met Sally. Billy Crystal at his wisecracking best? 'Surrey with the fringe on top' on the karaoke machine? That's a massive gap.

For my money, the two together represent the greatest film(s) of all time. However good you think When Harry Met Sally to be, it's a mere confection in comparison. Seriously, you need to remedy this situation forthwith.

I've considered it, but I think it's too late. Honestly, the first time I see Brando with the cotton wool stuffed into his cheeks I'll piss myself.

I've never seen Enter The Dragon. Or Last Tango In Paris.

Nah, it takes commitment to sit and watch it.

The only important movie I've ever stumbled across by accident and sat and enjoyed is Mann's masterpiece.

[Sir C]

I've never seen any of The Godfather's either, no point now as they couldn't possibly live up to the hype imo

My list of classic movies I haven't seen is amazing/shocking, shame I can't remember any atm

Four Weddings and a Funeral? I love that movie.

I've not seen any of those either

Enter The Dragon is boring - like most chopsocky movies. Last Tango in Paris is unbelievably tedious - no amount of nudity or cheeky bumsex is going to make up for the extraordinary longueurs.

You've never seen James Caan as Sonny? You've never seen Luca Brazzi? Clemenza? You know nothing of Frankie Five Angels? You've never heard Brando say 'Tattaglia's a pimp'?

Mate. Just watch the fúcker.

[Burney]

The Last of The Mohicans? Absolutely.
