Film & TV Challenge


Myself & Malcolm McDowell.  Can you name the three films he played Mick Travis in?


I've always been a big film & TV fan, with eccentric tastes.  My favorites tend to be British and often in the genres of sci-fi or fantasy.  Have I seen such main stream faire as E.T. or Downtown Abbey?  Nope, and I don't plan to soon.  But if you're up for a discussion of German silent films or TV super hero adaptions, I'm there. 
Here's a few question off the top of my head (or the depths of my mind) to test your film/TV knowledge. There's no award for high scores, other then the knowledge that you've seen some pretty cool shows/films and have a good memory!
