    Midsummer Day fun

    Twitter may be daft but is occasionally fun. The recent trend under the 'hashtag' label #makeafilmtotallyBritish came up with some excellent I'm Sorry I Haven't A Clue-style contributions...

    "The Unbearable Lightness of Ealing"... "Fifty Shades of Kray"... "Brexit at Tiffany's"... "Murder on the Tesco Express"... (Tesco did well, actually - there was also "Tesco Chainstore Manager"...)... "Scone with the Wind"/"The Scone Ranger" (depending).

    Any more for any more?
    "...the isle is full of noises,
    Sounds and sweet airs, that give delight and hurt not.
    Sometimes a thousand twangling instruments
    Will hum about mine ears, and sometime voices..."

    Not a film, but how about "The dumb Waitrose"?

        Citizen Michael Caine

        Sausage and M*A*S*H

        Was going to say A Clockwork Haliborange - but that turns out to be a German product
        It isn't given us to know those rare moments when people are wide open and the lightest touch can wither or heal. A moment too late and we can never reach them any more in this world.
