Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

More likely there won't be any power but a bunch of Fetchies will be reenacting all these films. Can't wait to see the car/L-train chase from The French Connection re-done with coconuts and palm leaves.

Derby 7's a hard choice - I think most people could think of 10 or more, which they would class as their favourites.

I was a bit against choosing 2 star wars films - but since 77 they have been and remain my favourite series of films & the whole genre (with the exception of attending dressy up meetings!!!)

Highly recommend the Cruel Sea - in the written form as well, not only because Liverpool acts as a backdrop, but because its the most authentic account of war at sea that I have ever read - Das Boot is a close second, but that's taken from a submariners point of view.
