@SJASheridan I remember Krazy, which was the comic where Cheeky was first a character. Being obsessed with horror films as a kid I bought it because you got free Dracula fangs with the first issue.

Cheeky... one of the best children's comics of the 70s. Cover art by my late friend, Frank McDiarmid.

@Robin_Askwith Sorry to hear this, condolences to you and Paul's family.

RIP Paul Elliott Producer,director,author .husband,father,friend and irreplaceable …. Lost for words NZ 1987

@ConfessionsPete Has to be Ingrid Pitt for me.

Who was your first movie star crush?

@ConfessionsPete If Robin ever opens a Bluesky account I'm off this platform for good. He's one of the best on here and has introduced us all to each other and we've formed our own little corner which only brings fun.

Wearing my Askwith and Layton tee in solidarity today…Mr A been on the receiving end of unwarranted shit today… he is the guvnor who binds a lot of us together… f*** haters!!

@SaucySeventies I'm not on social media as much nowadays but please don't jack it in or turn to the nostalgia bollocks. Our niche area of this site is perfect despite the lack of engagement since Musk took over.

Happy New Year and thanks for following. A question for you. Is there still much interest in what I am doing on here? Celebrating the saucy films of yesteryear and throwing in some weird and wonderful clips from our cultural past? Or should I cut my losses and go for the big likes by becoming a 'who remembers' merchant?

@robchilds @BoxingNewsED To be fair, for the money AJ is getting I would fight both of them at the same time, naked with a carrot up my arse on prime time TV.

@BoxingNewsED Unless AJ puts this fantasist on his arse within Round 1 it’s a fix

Jake Paul bravely put his fist to Anthony Joshua's face as they sized each other up for the final time. #JakeJoshua

@ConfessionsPete @ontheslatepod The Sweeney or this beauty... youtu.be/B7SlzWB9k8Q?si…

Attention all MINDER fans! A new pod devoted to this classic show coming soon - follow @ontheslatepod for updates. Quick debate: I Could Be So Good For You is obviously the greatest (theme) song of all time…But what are its main rivals for the title of top TV theme tune?

@AshtonLamont Very good podcast here regarding the film. [The Horror Double Bill] Episode One: La Cabina (1972) & El Bar (2017) 🅴 #theHorrorDoubleBill podcastaddict.com/the-horror-dou… via @PodcastAddict

#31DaysofHorror - 31 horror illustrations over 31 days: Day 29 - La Cabina (Dir: Antonio Mercero, 1972).

@Mag1cH0ur Great film with an awful US remake.

Ole Bornedal's morgue-horror, NIGHTWATCH opened in London on this day October 13th, 1995..

@SaucySeventies I went to a bar in Kings Cross three weeks ago and wore double denim for the first time since 1988. I thought I looked cool but probably looked like Roy Kinnear as Bovver Boy's dad!

@Robin_Askwith Very well thanks! Will send a message later, been incredibly busy since retiring!

@Tramps67 You were one of the first! Trust you are well

Let the ceremony begin!

@MVZaGoGo Stephen Graham is one of the best. Anyone who saw his performance in the This Is England series will know that. Anyone who hasn't seen the film and series really should try to watch it. It's an incredible piece of work with outstanding performances by everyone.

Stephen Graham completely blew my mind. I’ve always loved his work, but the fact that he was able to so perfectly portray a man he never met ( and I’m sure there’s little footage of him ) is absolutely astounding.

@thebowlerhatman A fantastic voice and a great, natural actor who made it look so easy. As @Robin_Askwith said, 'the British Steve McQueen.'

I am seeing Ray Brooks's family tomorrow. Please RT & reply with your lovely messages so I can show them how loved their dad was.

@SJASheridan @SaucySeventies Cars, charismatic leading actor, hot passion, I'm sure that it's where the producers of the Fast and Furious franchise got the idea from because they were certainly going fast and furious in that scene.

@SaucySeventies One of my all-time fave scenes!

The Science of the Saucy Seventies. Can the energy released from heavy petting in a car really cause the vehicle to fall apart and explode?

@judyjarvis He was rather special wasn't he? Gifted with talent and extraordinary good looks.

Sad news. Such a beautiful man.

@SaucySeventies Sent you a PM

@PeterFandom A few from then later period I'd like to revisit, this, Murder by Death and Fu Manchu. They never seem to be on any of the streamers!

#ThePrisonerOfZenda released #OTD in 1979. I quite enjoyed this version but it has mixed reviews. #PeterSellers #LynneFrederick #ElkeSommer #CatherineSchell #SimonWilliams #LionelJeffries #JeremyKemp #GrahamStark

@Robin_Askwith 'A British Steve McQueen' is very apt. I recently re-watched Flesh & Blood show and he was so incredibly natural and confident in it.

I first met Ray when he wrote the original s/track for Cool It Carol He was my early hero,a British Steve McQueen To work with him and become neighbours and friend in Kew was a magnificent treat He was brilliant and without showbiz pretention RIP Ray Brooks Raymondo…

@MarlisaMilne @Estreetman60 I was there also and in the front of the pit. Even before the deluge he was on fine form, afterwards it was like watching 80s era Bruce. He really didn't want to leave the stage and we didn't want him to.

@Estreetman60 San Sebastián last Tuesday- post the storm was like 20 years ago…and if I can move never mind what he does at 76, I’ll be a happy gal…

I'm afraid his best days are behind him
