no I wasn't thinking of dads army - it was a film

There have been a couple of films of Dad's Army, one quite recent. And "I tried to think of something harmless from my childhood" is a good one, which I've just looked up .... so I won't give it away.

Ah, I've never seen "Cast Away", though I am aware of it.

And it's not "Sixth Sense", which I'm not aware of.

@arthur, I wonder how many other Forumites have a name which is also the title of a (reasonably) well-known film?

Not reasonably well known, but moi.....

I've never seen this

Thanks for those, Arthur. Back in my quizzing days, they'd have been to sort of things I'd try and commit to memory. Now? They'll just be lost, "like tears in the rain".

Anyway, I'd have got the "need for speed" one, might have got the "don't need roads" one, but wouldn't have stood a chance with the others, never having seen the movies. (I did wonder where the "build it and they will come" line was from.)
