Notorious religious satire from the Monty Python team which was
banned in 17 countries on release. Set during Biblical times, the
film tells the story of Brian (Graham Chapman), an accidental
messiah whose life runs in eerie parallel to that of Jesus Christ.
His misadventures come to the attention of Pilate (Michael Palin),
crucifixion inevitably follows, and the film ends with the infamous
group rendition of the song 'Always Look on the Bright Side of
Life'.
September 1940: In the midst of the Second World War, The Luftwaffe
unleashed a series of devastating raids on Southampton, all but
destroying its Spitfire factories. But production didn't stop.
Instead, manufacturing of this iconic fighter moved underground, to
secret locations staffed by women, children and non-combatant men.
With little engineering experience between them, they built a fleet
of one of the greatest war planes that has ever existed. This is
their story.

The entire second season of the 1970s BBC sci-fi series.
'Redemption' sees Orac's prediction of the Liberator's destruction
looking likely to be fulfilled when the ship's original owners
arrive and take the rebels prisoner. In 'Shadow', Blake becomes
involved with an interplanetary crime syndicate. 'Weapon' sees
Blake and crew set out to steal a deadly 'delayed-effect' gun,
which Servalan also wishes to possess. In 'Horizon', the Liberator
heads for the edge of the Galaxy, only to be taken prisoner on the
planet Horizon. 'Pressure Point' sees Blake attempting to destroy
the Federation's control centre, only to walk into a trap set by
Travis. In 'Trial', Travis is made a scapegoat by Servalan for
their failure to capture Blake. 'Killer' sees Blake and his crew
stumbling upon a derelict spaceship whilst on a mission to crack
the Federation's new transmission code. The craft houses a deadly
plague which could threaten the existence of the entire universe.
In 'Hostage', Travis tries to trap Blake by kidnapping his cousin,
Inga. 'Countdown' sees Blake and crew coming to the aid of the
planet Albian, whose population are dying from radiation poisoning.
In 'Voice from the Past', a telepathic signal forces Blake to
reroute the Liberator to an asteroid where Travis lies in wait.
Whilst 'Gambit' sees Blake, Cally and Jenna visit a gambling world
to find the man who knows the location of the Federation's Star
One. Avon and Villa, meanwhile, choose to take Orac on an illicit
gambling spree. In 'The Keeper', Blake tries to obtain the key to
Star One from a tribal chief on the planet Goth. However, Travis
has beaten him to it. Finally, 'Star One' sees Blake at last launch
his attack on the Federation's headquarters, unaware that an alien
fleet is poised to invade.
A double bill of Monty Python comedies. In 'The Holy Grail' (1975),
King Arthur and his trusty knights fearlessly (for the most part)
travel the length and breadth of the country in search of the
mythical Holy Grail. On their way they have to deal with the
sarcastic taunts of the French Knight, the Knights who say 'Ni',
Tim the Enchanter and the Terror of the Cave of Caerbannog. 'Life
of Brian' (1979), set during Biblical times, tells the story of
Brian (Graham Chapman), an accidental messiah whose life runs in
eerie parallel to that of Jesus Christ. His misadventures come to
the attention of Pilate, crucifixion inevitably follows, and the
film ends with the infamous group rendition of the song 'Always
Look On the Bright Side of Life'.
