Slim, I haven't spotted anything on the Talking Pictures tv channel that you'll be interested in during the coming week.
On Thursday there's a British film called "They Came to a City" (1944) described as a fantasy. It's about a group of people to come to live in an "ideal" city and talk about it. From a play by J B Priestley who appears in the film as himself. Also on Thursday is a repeat of "Things to Come" (1936), the British science fiction film written by H G Wells' own novel. Although not a double bill, the two films could be. Both films have considerable involvement from the writers, are of an allegorical nature, and ultimately rather boring.

On Sunday evening is "The Gentle Sex" (1943). Unlikely to appeal to you as it's a war film but is about 7 women who join the ATS.  Noted for being Leslie Howard's final film (as co-director and narrator).

I noticed that the BBC Two channel were showing those as a double bill of Norman Jewison films. They are repeated on BBC Four on Thursday evening with a 25 minute interview he gave back in 2005 in between.

Morning El         

Three wins in a row         

Still in it       

Hi Velvet

Yes, Chelltenham won 3 matched in a row though the next 2 games are trickier away ones.
First 11 league games this season 1 point
Change of manager
Next 11 league games 18 points
Then the 9 last games 13 points.

I reckon they'll need at least 20 points from the last 15 games of the season
