Did you see Uranus?

Brett, my mobile phone was used by Catweazle. It is that old. But cheers anyway. Going out with my bins tonight again if it's clear. (Jupiter! I actually saw Jupiter. My one ambition is to see Saturn's rings. Dream on, Keith, dream on.)

Me and a friend were going to book into an event up there once - thinking we would be staying for the weekend. But it transpired that we would have to drive there and back every night - rather than stay. To be honest i couldn't afford it at the mo. But thanks for the link.

All correct but the last one, Malcolm. Sorry to be pedantic but the Wes Studi one is Magua from Last of the Mohicans. And that is not in connection with the others. Look at the rest - and the roles they played - then you will figure out the last one. It's all there but for one name.

Yeah, my knee-jerk reaction when I first saw one of the women. I googled it later and saw I was wrong there. The film looks good though.

SPECIFICS - YOU VARMINT

I saw Capella on one of the sites, Vic, but I didn't think it was that. I may have been wrong. I, too, have problems with light pollution, that and the fact I live in a cul-de-sac.

Thanks for confirming it, Vic. There was also a bright star (object) to the right of the moon, lower down, and I don't know what that was. To be honest there are not that many good night sky astronomy sites about, very frustrating. The clouds have obscured everything here, so i can't see anything either.

Thursday November 1 2012 (8. 30 pm) Are there any astronomers out there. We have a beautiful moon to the east and a bright planet to the left of it. I think it is Jupiter but I am not sure. I am interested in astronomy but just getting started. Please help.

OKAY VARMINTS, TAKE A SQUINT AT THESE CRITTERS WHAT'S THE CONNECTION - SPECIFIC MIND YOU

Just checked up on Google Malcolm - I'm right, yeehah. Where's MY prize. A weekend of lust and passion with Kylie will do...throw in some sanatogen and make it a fortnight.

Catherine Zeta Jones is in there, methinks, and I've gone through my list of witches - Maggie Thatcher, Cherie Blair, etc, but the Wicked Witch of the West looks to me like Rachel Weisz. (Maybe wrong) The film looks good.

I put that one in especially for you Merc'.

COME ON MERC' - NAME THE FILM!!!!!

HERE IS A QUICKIE TO GET A LONG WITH. NAME THE FILM.

Can a quizmaster not have FIVE minutes to himself!!!! Here I am in the middle of major disruption - my shower went in today - but my washing is Donald Ducked. I'm cold and hungry and there's nothing in the pantry except hungry mice. I've had a handful of cat litterl for my breakfast...rant rant....rave rave. Okay you got it, CLOCKWORK ORANGE and here is me thinking it would take you a month of whatsits to get it. Five Graves to Cairo, Seven Bitches for Seven Bros, and Five Easy Pieces, which gives you 17 which gives you Heaven 17 who took their name from Anthony Burgess' Clockwork Orange - and not a iguana in sight. I suppose you want a prize - well it will have to wait ya boo hiss. Well done Malcolm & Merc - sounds like a vaudeville duo. Your joint prize will follow ASAP. Adios amigos.

NOW PAY ATTENTION EVERYONE. HERE IS A JOLLY NEW JAPE THAT WILL TEST YOUR MIND POWER. JUST FOLLOW THE RULES AND YOU WILL BE REWARDED. 1) Three scenes from three films - each film has a number in it's title. 2) Add the numbers up and then think of a pop group with that correct number in their name. 3) This group derived their name from a passage from a book. (Later made into a film.) WHAT IS THAT BOOK / FILM? EASY PEASY - NOW GET AT IT.

MALCOLM ROBINSON - THIS WEEKS WINNER Hallelujah praise be the Lord. As your prize for guessing all four films I am sending you back in time to the days of prohibition America. No more guzzling down Gin or bandying with Bourbon; in fact no more of any of that, you will be alcohol free for a full month. And to enforce this new regime of righteousness we are placing you with the God-fearing family of which Ma Barker is the matriarch. Helping her will be her sons, if they are out of prison that is. But fear not there are loads of Ma Barker's friends who will drop by and help you adjust; friends like Bonnie and her Beau Clyde from way down Louisiana. Then there is Uncle Al from Chicago. You can all pop down to the local Temperance Hall for some tea and muffins and indulge in a few hands of Old Maid. Many-a-time you will see bandsmen entering the basement halls carrying their violin cases with them; and often you can hear the staccato of their favourite instrument – the Chicago Piano. And as a special delight I have secured you a trip to Chicago on Valentine's day. Please do enjoy this fabulous prize; Now all together…"Let's all meet them at the river…the beautiful, the beautiful river…”

Well done, Malcolm - eventually. Enjoy the scene - it is awesome.

No Nay Never No Nay No Never No Nay.

NOPE - But you are right with Stanley Tucci.

I honestly hadn't heard of the golden rivet and I just looked it up. It must have started on HMS Bendover, did it?

OKAY, LUVVIES, YOU SEEM TO BE HAVING TROUBLE WITH THIS FOURTH SCENE. So here is another scene from the same film.

GIMME GIMME GIMME - AWESOME

I see the Bounty has sunk as Hurricane Sandy strikes the USA. I was on the Bounty when it docked at Blyth a few years ago. (I'm assuming it was the same one.) I was amazed at how small it was. It cost £5 to board and go below decks and the whole ship seemed cramped, but it was well worth it just to see what it would have been like in those days.
