Fabulous travel down nostalgia way!!!, 17 July 2008

When I read the other review of this program, I think to myself, how terrible sad that some people write reviews based on being narrow minded. This TV program is great fun for anyone who appreciates the many comedy films produced in Great Britain during the late 1950's through the 1970's. Here you meet many of the sex symbols that graced the silver screen from the greatly loved Carry On films and Hammer Film Studioes Horror films. Many of these films are considered classics and loved by millions of people all over the world. It is wonderful to see these glamorous actresses that once played both minor and leading roles.Many remembered because they were beautiful, talented and knew how to have fun with the comic talents they were set against. I think many fans of these films have wondered what happen to names like Valiere Leon, Julie Ege, Ingrid Pitt, Madeline Smith and many others. Here they are, with a sense of humor, looking back on their career with insight and fun. Tony Livesei does a great job as a presenter and brought us back to an era when the sex comedies of British Cinema had their popularity. There was a few times I wished he allowed more time for his interviews, especially with Julie Ege. Her film career was definitely so much more then UP POMPEII. Also missed Martine Beswick who would have added much style to the program, what a lady.Anyone who regards this era of film comedies will have fun,once more seeing again many of the actors and actresses that made these films memorable. A treasure for sure,ENJOY :-))
