Don't forget it's about 60 years ago - or hasn't Australia changed in all that time?

Of course things change but the types of homes depicted just weren't built in Australia then and even now you wouldn't find a entire streets with that style.

Something I've been meaning to ask reds, why don't you start all your posts with 'Look' ?

World War 2 in colour
I need to write some military jokes so I'm getting some inspiration

They are about to bomb the f**k out of Japan

Erm... because I don't start my sentences with that unless I am actually asking someone to physically look at something.

It's just that when we hear Antipodean cricketers, politicians etc interviewed, they all start every sentence with it.

Jonathan Strange & Mr Norrell last night - looking good with more and better effects to come from all accounts. I enjoyed it anyway, with excellent sets and scenery - the only downside was some twat still insisting on covering some of the dialogue with unnecessary music and Vinculus (Paul Kaye!) tending to (sc)ramble his words.

I watched it but didn't find it that gripping, so much so that I fell asleep half-way through and had lost track of the plot when I woke up.

Laughing out loud That's me normally after Antiques Roadshow, which I sometimes also doze through - not gripping maybe but I think it will grow into a watchable series.

Why should kids have all the fantasy stuff.........

I was about to watch it when we had a visitor (a friend) so missed the first half - then didn't understand the second half.

I saw that at the cinema when it first came out. With colleagues. When I used to have *permanent colleagues*. We laughed a lot as I recall, plus we went for a pizza afterwards.

Result.
