&#34;They set out to rob a bank...and damn near won a war instead!&#34;Kelly&#39;s Heroes is surely one of the most loved and fondly remembered WWII movies.Clint Eastwood, Telly Savalas and Donald Sutherland are on a mission to raid a bank vault full of gold bullion in German occupied France. And it turns out to be just as hard as that sounds.

You will live every shattering moment of terror with... The Man Who Haunted Himself.What&#39;s better than a film starring Roger Moore? A filming starring TWO Roger Moores obviously. Giving his personal favourite performance, Roger Moore is Harold Pelham, a man who survives a near fatal accident, only for his life to fall apart in the aftermath. Why do people claim to have seen him in places he couldn&#39;t possibly have been? Whose car parks outside his home when he&#39;s not there? Who is the real Harold Pelham?#rogermoore #hildegardneil # antonrodgers #olgageorgespicot #freddiejones #basildearden

You may not think of this as a festive favourite, but Disney classic The Aristocats was released in December 1970 and makes a great family movie to kick off the Christmas season.When retired opera singer Madame Bonfamille decides to leave her riches to her beloved cats she unwittingly sparks a chain of events which result in pampered house cat Duchess and her three kittens having to find their way home through the French countryside and Parisian rooftops, with the help of rough around the edges alley cat, Thomas O&#39;Malley.#disney #disneyfilms #disneystudios #thearistocats #philharris #evagabor

1970 was a bumper year for horror, and vampire movies in particular.But I&#39;m pretty confident that Scars of Dracula was the only film where you could find George Carter from The Sweeney and that nice girl from Magpie at the mercy of Christopher Lee&#39;s Dracula, a previous incarnation of The Doctor, and the worst rubber bats you&#39;ve ever seen outside a pound shop.Are you brave enough to face The Scars of Dracula?#happyhalloween#christopherlee #jennyhanley #denniswaterman #christophermatthews #patricktroughton #scarsofdracula #hammerhorror

Slapstick shenanigans ahoy as we enjoy the saucy postcard stylings of Carry on Loving, Carry On Up The Jungle and Doctor in Trouble.
By 1970 the two long-standing British comedy institutions of the Carry On and Doctor in the House franchises were reaching their end dates, but despite this the Carry On films were still propping up the British box office and prolific enough to generate two new releases in 1970. This week we&#39;ll be looking at Doctor in Trouble, Carry On Loving and Carry On Up The Jungle. And explaining the family connection behind these comedy behemoths.
