Spike Milligan - From Woy Woy to Wagga Wagga
You lot of pompous...arrogant..."upper class" twats... Disrespectful and condescending in the most egregious manner... Equal treatment of all military personnel in being sent home...the inquiry into their questionable labour deployment and access to basic human rights is all that was being requested... Oh I am gravely disappointed in the response to three perfectly reasonable enquiries by this particular "establishment"... Military discipline is of tantamount importance... An absolute necessity... Without a code of conduct there would be chaos... However... The war was over...!!! 🇿🇦
Colin Wilson 🙏❤ accompanying music 👎
It's thanks to my namesake that I know the story of the Rev. Harold Davidson, Rector of Stiffkey, and his unfortunate demise in the jaws of a circus lion.
What a wonderful programme! Thank you much.😊
Bliss!
Wow, how things have changed! Defence spending on the up and Putin baring his teeth….
I’ve seen this documentary in color and I’ve also seen a black-and-white version of it
A perfect example of gold hidden in RUclips, so hard to find.
And yet I almost contradict myself given it was only posted two days ago.
"There was a sort of madness going on", yet the British Empire, the British Raj, was so terrible?
I've been aware of Evelyn Waugh since my school days 50 years ago. I'd heard of the TV series Brideshead Revisited when originally aired but didn't watch it until perhaps 5 years ago & again recently. upon reading the book I could hear Charles Ryder as clear as a bell. Today I've ordered 5 more of his books &, having watched these 3 Arena programs, am hooked!
Absinthe was a green tinted spirit with a very high alcohol content - over 45%. It was popular with separated lovers as Absinthe makes the heart grow fonder!
Roth, was to journalism, what Cruickshank's Fagen was to commerce.
It’s times like this when I think ‘thank heaven for RUclips’! This is just wonderful in too many ways to mention individually. It’s clear that Watson has been overshadowed by Holmes for a long time, while at the same time carefully studying Holme’s methods, and with Holmes absent Watson is given an opportunity to now show HIS detecting skills, which he does brilliantly! Lovers of quality period productions like this should check out: The Shooting Party, 1985, starring James Mason and again, Edward Fox.
A lot of treasures on this channel! Thank you !
Well done Michael - another documentary where you learn almost nothing of the person in question - rather like your documentary about Alan Clark !
What would he think of the happy clappy masses we have today?
He looks like a cross between Dylan Thomas and Benny Hill.
No conocía este magnífico reportaje. "Cuando en su propia sangre redimida, España otra vez libre resucite No encontrará a su alcance otro desquite que ahogar odio en piedad y muerte en vida" Estas palabras de Don Luís Portillo,resultan proféticas porque ANTICIPAN el espíritu de la Transición Española. Impresionantes palabras que rezuman toda una grandeza de Espíritu.
This is about the notorious banned video for the Rolling Stones' 1983 single 'Undercover of the Night.'
Precioso y entrañable reportaje. Gracias
Watching with legs crossed.
The Falklands war saved Thatcher, she would have been voted out. Also the Tory government removed the Royal Navy ship and the evil Arginine government saw an opportunity. The blood and sweat of the British armed forces saved the day and Thatcher got the credit.
Strangely when Alan Clark (the aristocrat) imitates Heath (boy from Kent), it sounds like he's putting on a posh accent.
Ah, the delicious Edward Fox! I've seen a lot of Watsons. The bumbling Watson, the humorous Watson, the fisticuffs Watson etc... but this is the first ever sexy Watson! I'm shocked! What a lovely little side quest in the Holmes world. Thanks for this, it's a treasure.
A sensitive account of this terrible period in Spanish history. It is made even more poignant by Michael's Spanish connections and affection for this country.
Oh my. I go looking for this every 2 or 3 years. Finally. Many many thanks.
Kipling..awfully good..
Strange and funny plot😅
He reminds me of my late father
The pursuit of knowledge: Earlier I sought of this book  by Trevor Royle  and I can’t quite remember how and when and why I was looking for this book or I decided to search up this book, but I did, and I found various copies online and I was about to buy one, but I hesitated, but will because I have been quite busy so many things but also I decided to see if I can find a documentary instead about the subject and I did and I found this one and I started to watch it but did not finish it so I’m going to finish this somehow I was looking for something else and I found this post at me the earlier I’m re-sharing it I will still look up the book and find out more about the book and possibly write about the book.  I have very many connections in Facebook Instagram, and RUclips, as well as actual books through which I get so many leads to pursue something to pursue something that fascinates me. Repost: The Last Days of Life and Leisure of the Racist Leisurely Communists' First-Class Raj who Ruled and Oppressed, Subjugated and Dominated and Owned India for over 150 Years as Land-Lords and Rajahs and Maharanis and First -Class Sahibs, Memsahibs and Sole-Propreitors of Indian Sub-Continent through their Occupy Movement and Occupation through devious mandatory compulsions and forced submission through authorizations permits and binding contracts and sharp claus and torts for causing compulsory Submission to the Will of the Lards. Documentary about the Rise and Fall of the Commonwealth of Communists and their Paranormal Activities in India. I will make it a point to try and watch this documentary this weekend or one of these evenings. I was about to get online the book The Last Days of The Raj by Trevor Royle which I found and was about to get but hesitated and thought to myself let me see if there is a good documentary about this subject which I should watch first in the meantime in case I get more interesting information about other leads to pursue.
Waugh : "Madness - infinitely tedious to record everything". So true. Chesterton says somewhere that madness is utterly boring, what is interesting is sanity.
If only the young fellow/son could hang in there, mature , and channel his obvious talent for detection and debate and go to law school…great show, excellent writing and acting. Forgot it was fictional, there, for 😮a minute.😆😆😆
The GOAT. No question. I gave up writing when I realised how foolish I’d seem
Alan Clarke?, I'd rather listen to Korky the Cat!.
"Gods Wonderful Railway" if you're old enough ;-)
RIP 🙏
Thank you so much for up loading this. I never forgot it but I didn't think I'd ever see it again! Thanks so much.
A man too droll to be nice
He was 81 here, and lived on another 13 years, active to the end. Back when the Telegraph was (mostly) intelligently conservative. He'd be appalled at what it's become.
@Elitist20 Print newspapers are doomed now anyway and where there are paywall digital subscriptions they are not much help as people don't want to pay for something when they know they can get free news elsewhere. As for the Daily Telegraph - it will be gone within a decade along with most of its readership.
@Elitist20 the only serious publication around nowadays is the Spectator
@@revol148 Nope, haven't bothered with the Speccie in a long time.
@@Elitist20 what do you read then? I'm all up for suggestions.

His diaries are essential reading when on the bog!
Read the story, it's 100 times better
A Conservative history of the Conservatives is inherently of limited value. He was far too kind to them.
Just been to see her today. Absolutely stunning piece of engineering. Brought back to Great Britain when anything was possible where there was a will for it.
This is one of the best comedy films of all time, supported by a stellar cast.
Thank you. I have been an admirer of Kingsley Amis for decades and have finally been able to watch this drama, based on his screenplay. Cheers!
The funniest book ever, and the saddest book ever.
Great film
The English Magnificat is nails on a chalkboard
😢🎉
Wasn't he prime minister after Thatcher?
