M.A.S.H.

I've been catching up with this on True Entertainment, there being so many episodes I missed when they were first broadcast.

It has to be one of the best programmes of the 20th Century. Yes, it can be a bit of a melodrama at times, and it does have a relentless anti-war agenda, but it's consistently funny, poignant and well acted, and to keep those standards up for so many episodes is a sign of greatness.

    Good to have one programme with an anti war agenda surely.

    Nope.

    Anyway the kids (me included) at the school I went to wouldn't have had the faintest idea what a mansion was - and an apartment was a 'flat'.

    Absolutely. At the end of our road was a block of flats, not an apartment building.

    The movie was fantastic, too.

    I loved the film the first time I saw it but the second time I found it slow. I need to watch it again.

    It was filmed just up the road from where I went to high school, a truly stunning part of the world. The show lasted longer than the Korean War.
