    Unashamed to admit that The Sound of Music is still my favourite Musical

    No chance of going to Aviemore anytime soon.
    All roads around there blocked with snow.

    I will endeavour to try and get a copy and watch it.
    I remember when in the Life Boys we did a concert thing for mums and dads and had to sing Eidelweis. Sorry about the spelling. Best I can do.

    Apparently he preferred to call the film "The Sound of Mucus" due to his own attempts at singing

    And he was not pleased

    Me neither. It's one of those things that, when it was on telly, I always had something better to do. People I worked with raved about it, though, and I've sometimes wondered if I've missed out on something special. Then I've immediately forgotten all about it again.

    It's a very good film, if you view it in the context of the times in which it was made.

    And if you don't like it, there's Charmian Carr to eyeball.

    She looks a bit like Jennifer Aniston in that photo.

    Sound of Music wasn't one of my favourite things. Hate musicals. He did some decent films though. He was good in Star Trek 6, Battle of Britain and The Girl With the Deagon Tattoo. R.I.P.
