TV Gold

Or should i say The Cast of Colditz in Secret Army.
Im only up to Episode 3 of 28 episodes of Colditz and already i have spotted
B Hepton as a NAZI HEAD HONCHO.
Terence Hardiman as another Nazi Officer..
And Curtis suprise Suprise plays a downed pilot.
Great to see these 3 in what they did before Secret Army.
Looks like a great Series so far.

I must ask (as I'm sure many other TV Gold members will) how are you able to watch 'Colditz'?? <!--emo&:blink:-->[img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/blink.gif[/img]<!--endemo--> <!--emo&:huh:-->[img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/huh.gif[/img]<!--endemo--> The collective knowledge is that this classic wartime drama is currently not being broadcast anywhere at present and there are still no plans for the 'long overdue' extras packed DVD box set release.

Looking forward to your reply <!--emo&;)-->[img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/wink.gif[/img]<!--endemo-->

On a similar topic I was watching a DVD of Van de Valk a few months ago and Clifford Rose was playing a murderer. Also, I was channel hopping this morning and I caught a repeat of The Demon Headmaster with Terrence Hardiman in the title role!!

Hi Sarah
Easy one to answer this.
I recorded them on vhs from the repeats.
I then transfered them to dvd.
I still cant wait for them to release the real thing so i can watch them in dvd quality.
I have had them for ages just never got around to watching the series.
Until i bought SECRET ARMY then i realized that i was missing something.

Ooh talisman! how lucky-I missed out on Colditz last time round, and now I have to wait and see what happens, hoping it gets a proper dvd realease 'soon'.
I'd love to see Hardiman in that role.

Just to let everyone know that hasnt seen Colditz that it would appear Mr Hepton is in the complete series.
However Mr Hardiman is so far only in one Episode.
Im up to Episode 11.
Not as good as SECRET ARMY FOR ME.
Cant explain why but it just doesnt hold my attention as well.
Its still a superb series tho.
Also i watched THE SCARLET AND THE BLACK AND I LOVED IT.
It really was a superb film and i was talking about it for days after.
I have a film that i would suggest anyone on here watch.
It was a US tv special that came on about 3 years ago and it really is one of the best things i have ever seen on tv.
Its called UPRISING
It stars DONALD SUTHERLAND..DAVID SCHWIMMER... LEELEE SOBIESKI
HANK AZARIA JON VOIGHT CARY ELWES STEPHEN MOYER.
iTS A mini series about THE POLISH RESISTANCE IN WARSAW.
It really is one of the best things i have ever seen in my life.
It has passed most people by so i thought i would mention it.
ITS ONE OF THOSE RARE HIDDEN GEMS that appear now and again.
If you watch it you wont be dissapointed.

Just a few of the rave reviews

I have seen a variety of Holocaust films, due to my interest in World War II, and I would have to say this is probably one of the best, if not the best, that I've ever seen.

Uprising brings to us everything that Schindler's List does: touching story, great cinematography, and good actors. However, instead of focusing on a middleman such as Schindler (German helping Jews), this film focuses on the Jews helping themselves.

The emotions were strongly carried through due to overall great performances from many actors: Leelee Sobieski, Hank Azaria, David Schwimmer, Donald Sutherland, and many more.

This is film of hope, love, and cherishing life while you have it, all while in the toughest of times. These people overcame enormous odds by standing up to the oppressive and barbarous reign of the Germans, and not unlike one of the German characters, we now have it on film. Moreover, it is a great film.

A Must Watch, July 16, 2005
Reviewer: Greg - See all my reviews

This is one of the greates holocaust movies out there. It's abaout a group of Jews in the Warsaw Ghetto who know that the only way to live is to fight the Nazi's off and to escape. So they make weapons with all they can get their hands on or buy. At first they kill many Germans but soon are overwhelmed and cannot fight any longer. So they go into hiding <span style='color:red'>THIS PORTION REMOVED BY ME BECAUSE ITS A </span><span style='color:red'>SPOILER .</span> This is an excellent movie of family tradgey in the holocaust, the resistance, and what everyone in this darkest part of mankind went through. This movie should be a must watch for everyone to see what the Holocaust was.
