Post by: jpchenet on January 05, 2004, 06:13:55 pm
A quick flick through the TV guide this evening revealed the Steve McQueen film "Le Mans" is being shown on Channel 5 this coming Thursday. Damn stupid time though at 10am.

Now, if only I can remember how to program the video.............KIDS!!!!!!

I don't own the DVD yet, so this is good news indeed! I'm looking forward to the moody arrival sequence in the town when he turns up in the black 911!

As it happens, I ordered it for myself before xmas but our order from Amazon screwed up and didn't arrive. Wasn't too worried about my DVD but the kids PS2 games not arriving was a major problem!

Yeah, thinking about that one, how much is it?  Sky is just too much to justify.

Gibber - If its one of the digital free stations through an aerial typr idea , 2 things,

Make sure you have a really good strong signal ( if not you may need to upgrade youe aerial to reciev some stations , ITV and Channel 4.

2 ) They sell set top digital kits at Dixons / Curry's / Comet for £60 at the moment.

But SKY has Motors TV which is excellent. They are re showing the 2003 race ( le mans ) and also a Teams View , The Pro Drive 550 GTS team behind the scenes.

Sky also has Eurosport GB which is currently showing the Paris - Dakar rally.
It also shows other rivetting motorsports like Tractor Pulling !!

Just took my old freeview box and donated it to a mate who cant get C5 and very bad C4 reception, and we plugged in the box and it worked a treat  gets all the freeviews.

I thought about Sky, but cant be arse to pay £15+ a month when all I would want is Eurosport.  Did have Sky until about 2 years ago.

BANG IN YOUR POSTCODE HERE (http://www.bbc.co.uk/digital/howtoget.shtml) and you can find out if you can get it or not

Double checked my DVD last night.  It has subtitles, and language selection (French, German, Spanish, English), but not much else.  Running time is 104 mins.

I haven't watched it since the seventies I reckon, but I really enjoyed it too. Amazing how little the spectator areas have changed since then.



 Hated sharing it with adverts. I did tape it though.
