Option 1Can't Watch?
If the movie poster hasn't loaded, it means you are being blocked by a security service we use. This can happen for a number of reasons.

Click this first

A new tab will open and you'll be prompted to complete a basic security check like a captcha test.

After completing the above Click here to watch the movie

The movie should now either start playing within your browser or begin downloading to your device.

IMPORTANT: Please make sure that the newly opened tab is not an ad popup asking you to download some software or whatever. Close any such popups and don't download any software - those are ads. Nothing is needed to be done by you other than to complete the security check. It's usually a captcha test or simply involves checking a box.

This is a workaround method but has the minor disadvantage that English-language movies with optional subtitles in the normal player will not include subs here.

Could have done with more tits. Subtitles would help when the hero mumbles his atrocious king’s englitch into his coat pockets.. the saving grace of this film is the main character may have been the inpiration for AUSTIN POWERS International Man of Mi

Things were made differently in 1981. This is a slow burning cerebral drama that gets to you in subtle ways. probably a 6 episode / 30 min TV serial that is put together for this 3 hour ‘film’. Some lovely views of the UK.

I would put money on it ,that whoever made this for the
BBC also was behind the 70′ s sci fi series ‘ The Tomorrow People’ in fact the female musician with the short hair I’ m sure was in it…If anyone is interested in architecture that huge cathedral is the Liverpool Anglican Cathedral & it’s possible to climb up inside that he’ll tower ,done so many times .Where the woman lives …most definitely that is next to John Lennon’ s old flat in Gambier Terrace ,we lived in his flat many years ago and I.recognised that view anywhere .
