Sidetracked watching C5's Greatest Disaster Movies ...

... and what a load of ru ru ru rubbish it was! As voted by C5 and The Times readers ... absolute gems which had me on the floor though, so highly entertaining ... how about the American film critic stating that Sean Connery was a 'brilliant actor' ... bet he thinks that Charlton Heston or Harrison Ford are among the greatest actors of all time then ...

But where the show really let itself down was the little fact that most of the films nominated weren't actually 'disaster movies' ... Con Air (1997) and Number 4 nominated Apollo 13 (1995) to name but two ... and how about Independence Day (1996) and Titanic (1953 and 1997) not even making the top 15 ... ? Waited with bated breath for the Number 1 disaster movie of 'All Time' and actually fell off my armchair onto the floor when they proudly announced it was Bruce Willis in Die Hard (1988) ... un f'f'fin believable ...

Classic garbage, but probably what one would expect from Channel 5 viewers and The Times readership ...
