Some like it hot
Grease - this was all day long! Watch, rewind, watch, rewind 😆

Bugsy Malone, Yellow Submarine and, of course, The Goonies. If I’m ever feeling a bit sorry for myself I’ll still put one of them on and it always puts a smile on my face.

Strangely I have still never seen the Goonies despite growing up in the right era.

Would I enjoy it as an adult?

Ooh… and just starting now in Film4 is Big trouble in little China! Used to love that too 😆

Hmm hard to say… cos I’ve always known it from a child. Just give it a go…
