Ruudboy Report post Posted November 3, 2021 (edited) Good God. I cannot say I’ve found something with which I don’t disagree with Droy - although I favour A Night At The Opera. Particularly the scene in the cabin. The secret of success on this forum is honesty and making fair comments. If you can fake that, you've got it made. To misquote someone or other.

Porgy and Bess for me, any time. I did the Sound of Music tour in Salzburg. One of the highlights of my life ha ha!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ruudboy Report post Posted November 3, 2021 I narrowly avoided that dubious pleasure, Jane, by telling a vile untruth. Please don’t tell my wife or daughter, or my life will be hell. I’ll take that one to my grave. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Well done. The best I could do was Fleabag, but I think I just got to it before their friends did. Thankfully they never watched it with me. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

chara Report post Posted November 3, 2021 (edited) 3 hours ago, JaneB said: No ;-) (Nothing holds a candle to The Sound of Music anyway) Actually meant to write 'chickflick" but the phrase wouldn't come to mind!..Mrs C reminded me when we "messengered"..... Huh?.."Sound Of Music" ?...isn't that "Les Miserables" in French?...... never heard of it otherwise...new release?...MT doesn't mention it so........ And very old quiz question for all the more senior members..maybe,,,,many solo instrument hits over the years...."John and Julie";;;who and what instrument.. And any favourite strictly instrumental releases..and why..... "Rebel Rouser" a start off from me...first musical 78 I bought...but not Duane Eddy..couldn't afford it so Woolies knock off..Embassy ? Mrs C is in UK so a LOT of time on my hands! Edited November 3, 2021 by chara Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
