I say, I say he plays the guy who gives Dowding the kill-score from the northern raid about half-way through the movie 😉

Has anyone else noticed Fred (what you want is a nice gigot chop) Elliot, the Coronation Street butcher’s cameo role in BOB ? I just noticed it recently.

I wonder if they have CGI’d out Susannah York’s totally incorrect 1968 make up?

Is it available on wax cylinder
No they have all been melted, mixed with ‘OYL’ and sent to Fort Paull to protect the Beverley.

On the subject of the BoB audio, I wonder if it was originally recorded in stereo?
It would be nice if this release had the soundtrack remixed to stereo.

Now this “DTS” is a surprise.
AC3/Dolby Digital is wonderful, but giving it the DTS treatment too means it will sound even better for those with DTS equipped digital converters. Which my AV receiver is 🙂 🙂
(Now lets not get into an argument over audio formats, gentlemen. I know there are some of you out there that remember, and would prefer, the sound on vinyl with a needle and trumpet! 😀 😀 )

Thanks Mark.
Heard it was on it’s way but at the time no details of what the extras would be.
Cheers
