Name a film or tv show you think no one on here has heard of -

[peachese]

So for tv show:

When the Street Lights Go On.
Really good and equally as sad.

Films …. Maybe Creep 2004, I just rewatched it all these years later. But maybe it’s not as obscure as I think.

Small viewing figures but very devoted. We went to see Mr Marenghi's latest book tour at the London Palladium. He added extra London dates at the end of the nationwide tour because the original London dates at the start of the tour sold out.

A few dates for the paperback launch October. Obviously not the same as the TV show and lacking the genius performances of the rest of the cast but very funny, and doing steady business to the people who've never forgotten.

Scrubs was huge at the time!

I never watched the changes but I've read the books.

@RainBow725 due to Channel 4 and their randomness of showing Third Watch it took me years to see part 2 of the ER/Third Watch crossover!

Bed of roses, it’s a film from the 90’s with Christian Slater in it which is never shown on tv and you can’t buy it on dvd anywhere.

The best show we watched with our DC was The Secret Show, which was never the massive hit it deserved to be. Great catchphrases. We bought it on DVD on an Italian imported box set, because that was the only way to get all the series.

Permanent Record - very early Keanu Reeves

Untamed heart for a film
Series - tru calling

Me too! It turned up on a freeview channel a few years back and I finally found out what happened to little Susie.

"Strange" about 20 years ago. Series about a demon hunting ex-priest. There should have been more series but it was cancelled. The banshee episode has stayed in my memory ever since.

I used to love that!

Slipstream-a film in the late 80s. My late df dragged me to see it as it had malham cove as a filming location. I was 9, can't remember hardly any of it and i don't think df particularly liked it either.

Cutter's Goose! Yeah that was fun :-)

I LOVED that series!

Festen and The Idiots - both brilliant!

I was going to say Changes but I assume everyone a similar age to me would have watched it as a child so only not well known because it was on ages ago.

Some of the things mentioned I'd assumed were pretty mainstream, Scrubs is well known isn't it? Again unless theres more than one series with the same name

Love that film. When James Earl Jones died I was pleased to see quite a surprising number of posts popping up on social media paying homage to what a great job he did voicing Ommadon.

Also @Saschka Sarah Connor Chronicles fan here too!

I also remembered a film called The Spanish Prisoner, had Steve Martin in it. I had a student job in a cinema where you had to sit in with a torch. I saw some right clangers. But, I was working when they showed this and really enjoyed it.

Letter to Brezhnev

I saw this! Hilarious movie!

There was a drama with Pauline quirke called ' shine on Harvey moon ' and one with David Jason ' a bit of a do ' people look puzzled if I mention these , both on itv !

Film The Naked Island a 1960s Japanese film with almost no dialogue, mainly grunts and sighs and the sounds of feet on gravel, as the cast, a small family, endlessly haul water for their crops on their tiny isolated island.
The lead actor was suffering from serious kidney disease due to alcohol dependency, but the film location was so isolated that there was no alcohol available, so by the end of filming his health had recovered.

The Mistress I loved the house bunny, I've wanted one ever since! Ann Patchett's book The Magician's Assistant has a super house bunny too. 🐰 🐇 🐰

Il Postino Heartbreaking ending to the film, and a tragic end to the star in real life, altogether so sad. I've seen the film described as a romantic comedy which I don't understand at all.

I loved Tru Calling. I was gutted when it got cancelled.

@Compash I was going to say bubba ho-tep but you beat me to it. Gentlemen broncos is definitely in my top 10 films, I love it. We always quote it in our house.

And @A27009D56
Wasn’t there a phrase of utter pandemonium or similar?

A drama from around 1990, Making Out, about a group of women who worked in a Manchester electronics factory. Very Northern and funny. Debbie Horsfield was the writer.

Scrubs always seemed one of those shows nobody watched, but I'm clearly wrong! 😆
