    I liked 'The Man of Bronze'. There were a couple of reasons..

    Indeed. I am the same age as you I think. At the time for me I think it was maybe Susan Stranks and Caroline Munro? I had probably moved on from Symphony Angel by then, and we were still a few years from Debbie Harry doing Denis on TOTP.

    Caroline Munro is my favourite, too. She is a very handsome woman to this day.

    I have a personally signed photograph of her as Vampirella and some stuff of her in other Hammer Horror productions and a few Vampirella t shirts.

    La Rocka do a shirt of her in AD72!

    One of Mrs B's brother in laws is regularly commenting on Mrs B's similarities to her. He ain't wrong.

    Addendum - There was a massive billboard advertising Lambs Navy Rum on my way to and from school, featuring Caroline Munro in a wetsuit...OMFG, that image is burned on my soul.

    Have you seen Caroline Munro in Captain Kronos Vampire Hunter? Silly but utterly brilliant film, and Caroline memorable without saying a word. Another film ahead of it's time, Captain Kronos is kind of a proto-Witcher.

    If I love something, then I'm all in. There's also a significant collection of items featuring the 'Not The Girl Next Door', Bettie Page....

    I'll leave getting a room with her, Vimhawk, Caroline Munro and me until the afterlife, if it exists...she aged rather badly and has been dead for a couple of decades.

    St Nicholson took "push and run" to its zenith.

    That aside, Spurs have an esteemed history of
    players who went on as managers to be involved
    in pioneering styles of play (Rowe, Nicholson,
    Vic Buckingham - who at Ajax was part of the cadre
    that spawned "total football" ) .

    Great, great film! And she was excellent in it - as indeed was every single member of the cast!
