Welcome you once again to the podcast dedicated to the nation's favourite archive tv and movie channel – Talking Pictures TV.

The podcast where you, the viewer make our job just that little bit easier by sending in your reviews of some of the wonderful movies and tv shows we have lined up for your over the next three weeks.

On today's show, Scott brings you Western action with the legendary John Wayne, classic Hollywood comedy from Frank Capra starring Gary Cooper, and not one, but two trips to Brighton as Jack Warner dives head first into a 1960s murder mystery and Richard Attenborough stars in one of the greatet British movies ever made. All this plus Petula Clark, Googie Withers, Lionel Jeffries and Robin Hood and much more on the official Talking Pictures TV Podcast.

This episode's recommendations from the Talking Pictures TV schedule include a brilliant, and unusual, Sherlock Holmes film; a little something from Ed Wood; an early Hammer sci-fi; and a John Mills thriller. All courtesy of Mel Byron and the TPTV podcast team.
