Scully Posted October 22, 2020 Report Share Posted October 22, 2020 Are there any channels out there which show just old classics from the 1930’s, ‘40’s , 50’s and ‘60’s? Studios and distributors such as RKO, Warner Bros and Gainsborough, and Rank, amongst the biggies like MGM, Paramount and others?

fatchap Posted October 22, 2020 Report Share Posted October 22, 2020 (edited) Forces TV did but not sure if its still running now. Channel called Yesterday sometimes shows the odd classic, they had Ice cold in Alex on a few days back, Greatest war film ever made, and please no arguments IT IS OK!!!

Wasn’t Sylvia Simms absolutely stunning when she was younger! I know I know, I’ve seen her recently but she is in her 80’s. 🙂 Edited October 22, 2020 by Scully Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Munzy Posted October 22, 2020 Report Share Posted October 22, 2020 I signed up to Britbox last night purely to see the new Spitting Image. They have a 7 day free trial so you could give it a go. They have quite a big catalogue of old movies, mostly British (as the service is a joint effort by the Beeb and ITV). I won’t be renewing it as Spitting Image was absolutely terrible and I have access to most of what I’m interested in from the rest of the catalogue elsewhere.

Forces TV is still going (Freeview 96, sky 264) and has some classic old tv shows on it. Saw a few episodes of Callan and Bless this House the other day.
