Not sure if the generation gap is too big Len

Did good work Ken!
My fav was
The Lair of the White Worm

Everyone has surely seen TOMMY?
Classic along with films like Quadrophenia and Clockwork Orange!

Yeah I didn't like Clock Work Orange it left a bad taste in my mouth, but job done!

Clockwork orange was Stanley Kubrick

Come to think of it, Quadrophenia wasn't a Ken Russell film either!
Definitely his age
