We don't have cable etc, so 99% of our tube watching time is library videos. I watch alot of travel videos, and they can be interesting or total duds.

I know there is a huge body of experience out there that can recommend high quality productions, most all far more proficent than I.

And someone mentioned "The Weeping Camel" (sic) recently which. to me, was a remarkable film, and JUST the sort of film I want to watch.

So I ask that the forum recommends some of their choices of material that is excellent and may very well be overlooked masterpices, as the weeping camel surely is, for my edification as well as others.

I'll Start:

1) The entire "Horatio Hornblower" series

2) "Bride and predjudice", Bollywood and so much fun

3) National Geo's "The Weeping Camel" (sic) utterly wonderful 4)Most "Lonely Planet" Travel videos

OT: For the last 6 years I haven't watched nearly as many flicks as I used to. But recently I stumbled upon the local radio show Those Were The Days -- all old-time radio stuff. I highly recommend the show, and the compilations they sell. Jack Benny, Burns & Allen, Bob Hope, Amos & Andy. The dramas are pretty neat. The "Holiday" Shows are fantastic -- they were, of course, matter-of-factly Christian broadcasts in a way that would be illegal today.

An absolutely wonderful look at the past, especially for those like me who didn't actually grow up in America, but did get to see the re-runs.

But robin had the sense I meant.
