Childhood Christmas films
Hi being the time of the year im thinking what films would be great to show my own children that i used to watch when i was younger at Christmas.
Ive just found on Ebay and youtube an old 1979 film called Quicy's Quest, not seen that for years and years. Has anyone else got any idea's of other films they never see or would like to see again?

(thank you for making me part of this) quoted just after gonzo wipes the window with the rat, is just 1 of the many quotes in the film that just make it great for all ages.
