My granny said she could get into the Wallaw using milk bottle - or jam jars - as entrance fee. Can anyone shed any light on this?

Symptoms - with regards to the entrance fee being an orange. My granny, and I think my mother as well, said they could get into the Wallaw at Bedlington Station using bottles or jam jars!!! I know that sounds weird but I do recall them saying that and so does my bro.

Here's another clip from the same film.

Got them all right, Malcolm, except for the last one, as you thought, it is not King Kong, It is one of my all time favourites, I've got all these on DVD. So keep guessing. By the way, Malcolm, my apologies. When you said that car number three was a ringer I thought you meant there was NO film attached to it. So I thought your quiz was finished. i would not have posted mine until yours was complete, sorry about that. It isn't Bugsy Malone is it? OR The Great Gatsby, try the latter.

Okay varmints, name these old Sci-Fi films.

You can even impress your kids or friends by giving one of the Californian Redwood trees a thump. ( you wont hurt yourself on the velvety bark ) but make sure it is a Redwood first. Ha Ha Mr Laverick took us to Chillingham and told us about punching the trees, which we all did, but we never got to walk around the place, leastways that I can remember. In those day outs we went everywhere - Ford, Etal, Norham. It was a whistlestop tour of castles. Never saw any ghosts, though.

I posted a topic - HARTFORD HALL HISTORY - last year on this mysterious lady but drew a blank with everybody. So if you know anything please let me know.

Aw, schucks, which one(s) did I get wrong, Malcolm, I bet its number 3. Bear in mind I got rid of the TV two years ago so if any of the above are modern I've got no chance.

Sweeney / Bladerunner / Dr Who? / The Prisoner / UFO

LINK THE CAR TO A TV SHOW

I know the difference between ghosties and ghoulies - ghosties are spirits of the dead that cannot rest and goolies are...hold on there's someone at the door.

( I mean, a ghost cat? You have to be kidding......) FROM MERC' We actually had a ghost cat at my old house. You could feel it on your bed, 'treading'. You would look down and there was nothing there. The funniest thing was I always had a brilliant night's sleep when it was on my bed. BUT In the same house we also had a poltergeist experience. Door handles rattling, etc. My mother and gran were absolutely petrified. I was young then but I remember everyone crying and praying. Now my granny could read tea-leaves. People used to come to our house carrying cups with tea leaves in and ask for a reading; she could also see images in the coal fire and orbs. For the record I saw nothing - except that ghost cat. But I'm a pussy magnet so that's normal.

Happy birthday GGG, have a good one.

You see, not just a pretty face. The proof would be to take a close up of the north seaton concrete bridge ends and see if they match the photos. (Of course they could have been changed!)

Take a look at the red circled bridge concrete 'ends' on these two photos. They are of North Seaton Bridge. The 'Ends' are similar. I honestly think they are the North Seaton Black Bridge Viaduct. You have to really zoom in on the second one.

If that was taken at North Seaton - looking south - across the North Seaton Bridge, then could not the circled chimney be the Dr. Pit?

No no no! The thread is about a bridge. Merc mentions it reminds him of another film - then Malcolm says Sir Alec. Now then, let's look at the evidence - Bridge, Film, Sir Alec....are you following me on this...ends with River Kwai!! So that's how I got to Guinness...and not the black stuff with a frothy top. So you lot think I resemble a Tory PM. Where's the sharp knife, has anybody got a length of rope. Mind you, I normally get Jasper Carrott. But don't tell anybody.

Now that you mention it, Malcolm...

Truly amazing Keith, good one. I'm sure Tony Christie was there once.

Was Fat Mo's another name for the Domino - Lucifers? I mean did it go from the Dom to Fat Mo's then to Lucy's?

I don't drink Guinness!

You didn't pay your subs!!!!!!! That's tantamount to stampeding cattle through the vatican or saying you don't believe in Santa Claus. It's a hanging offence up here. You know what will happen now, the men in power will send the Committee Men after you. They are worse than the Spanish Inquisition. They'll drag you out of bed and haul you off to the Market Place Club and force IPA down your neck. Malcolm, run for the hills; put distance between you and the CM's. Take refugee at Table 25; chant the magic words and go back in time when people wore flares and kipper ties and turning on the tranny meant listening to the wireless / radio. There is a timewarp at Table 25, all you have to do is take a jump to the left, then a step to the right; put your hands on your hips... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rtkdo7bOmJc

So I can't tell north from south. Darn't it, should have gone to Specsavers.
