You know, I wouldn’t be at all surprised if the cities’ authorities that initially refused his gigs, only to “allow” him after complaints, were in cahoots to then get him prosecuted/sued because of these “Nazi uniforms.”

And as for “Pink Floyd” not wanting anything to do with his politics, don’t get me started. They wouldn’t be Pink Floyd without Waters’ politics. They would’ve been consigned to the Rock ‘n’ Roll Hall of Fame of Also-Rans. (See anything post-Waters split for evidence of such mediocrity.)

Are people reading the same article, or not reading it at all? This is about Japanese teachers in the education system of Japan, not ALTs or foreign teachers coming to Japan to make money. Totally irrelevant arguments.

Oops !

Took em long enough to find it.

There speaks the voice of knowledge. /s

It’s more than 4,000m (13,123ft) under the sea. Deeper than Titanic. And how long did it take to find that huge vessel?

Honestly, some people!?!?

Meek and obedient, you follow the leader.

What they gonna do? Send Nissan from Sunderland? Smacks of desperation, by a desperate government for desperate people. So, it’ll fit in well with the Brexit types. Well done! /s

Taking seven and half hours to drive from Omitama to Hitachi.

Sitting in the garden next day blissfully unaware.

No power, water or gas for nearly ten days. When the telephones came back on, the first call I received was from my company, wanting me to return to work.

"Therefore the trackers must be embedded subcutaneously, preferably near major arteries to ensure security" said the Justice Minister.

Fake quote. Should be deleted.

I think dagon was being sarcastic……

If the Beatles are a model for these guys, then truly, the Dream is Over.

I think Idris is basically saying he has his own franchise and would rather do that. Luther is a great drama - wish there were more of it.

Oh, and for the record, OHMSS was released in 1969, not ‘66. I AM going to be that guy.

1.82 million, and I’m one of ‘em. And we’re here to stay! I’ve dug my grave, and I have one foot in it already.

A lot of the movies mentioned here are horror or psychological type. They’re not real folks! I never understood nor got the attraction.

For that very reason, something that did happen, and for many who had grandfathers or family there, easily the scariest movie: Saving Private Ryan. When you have D-Day veterans walking out of the theatres because it was too close, too accurate…….The first 25 minutes are something I shall never forget. Heaven knows what it must have REALLY been like, especially at Omaha Beach.

Think I read a comment on here some time ago regarding Cleese, along the lines of, "the young John Cleese would be shocked and disappointed seeing what the old John Cleese has turned into." Succinctly put.

I'd also add that Graham Chapman would be utterly ashamed of him as well.

He came in through the bathroom window?

Was he protected by a silver spoon?

Looks like a modern Caravaggio or Hieronymus Bosch.

by soldiers from Russia, whose never ending task is to defeat Nazism.

Whilst I applaud the sentiment (the never ending task), are they the same Russian soldiers that let the Nazis raze the Warsaw Ghetto to the ground? Wonder why they didn’t step in to help the Polish resistance?? Russia being one of the worst offenders of anti-semitism, of course. Let’s not forget the Pogroms of the 19th and early 20th Centuries.

Looks fun, if you have kids, I suppose. Can’t wait for the fetishists to get hold of it. Who knows, maybe they already have…?

I am reminded of the 1970s ITV series “World at War,” narrated by Laurence Olivier….."Where one burns books, there one eventually burns people.“

But if extremists want to burn Gay Pride flags, then they should expect some ‘reciprocity.’
