I would like to see the “The Ipcress File”. I saw “Funeral in Berlin”.

Watch the clip. It is really about how Bliar destroyed the UK and how violent street crime is now rampant in the UK.

I have the entire dvd set. It’s about an organization dedicated to defeat an alien invasion.

What is her name? Great show. American Ed Bishop died not long ago. If UFO had half the budget Star Trek had it would have been a great show. I preferred Colonel Straker to Kirk.

All due respect to M Caine, but he needs to be put out to pasture. Can’t they find an actor less than 135 who wants to work these days?

Oh I know. Ed Bishop was also in 2001 and two Bond films.

Ed Bishop was in “You Only Live Twice” as Hawaian Control in the gunbarrel pretitle sequence. He and Michael Billington died the same week.

Her name is Shakira.

Sure, they can. Now, finding one who can act is another question.

I don't care how old Michael Caine is; he can still act.

From the reviews it sounds like a he's playing a British Charles Bronson "Death Wish" character and going after hoodie-wearing yobs.

Could be worth the rental.

The thing I like about MC is that plays the type of character that I like. The individual who does his job with a slightly anti-establishment streak yet he always does his duty.

Interesting.

http://www.telegraph.co.uk/finance/financetopics/budget/5219642/Sir-Michael-Caine-warns-further-tax-rises-will-force-him-to-move-abroad.html

“Tax got to 82 per cent [in the 1970s] and I thought this was kind of unfair,” he said. “Also, I see... that the government has taken it up to 50 per cent and if it goes to 51 I will be back in America.

“I will not pay the Government more than I get. No way, ever. So they’ve reached their limit with me. That’s the lot.”
