BBC4 tonight: Quadrophenia

[The Large One]

Quick heads-up.

Not just the oft-repeated film (which is much later), but a documentary on the making of the album...

BBC Four - Quadrophenia: Can You See the Real Me?

 

[Hotchilidog]

Hooray for the i-player, at the croquet this evening, unless of course the weather intervenes.

 

[Cheeky Monkey]

And you get beaten up by blacks
Who though they work still got the sack.....you stop dancing

I got a Gibson
Without a case
But I can't get that even tanned look on my face.

 

[The Large One]

You had declared you would be three inches taller
You only became what we made you

 

[Cheeky Monkey]

Why should I care
If I have to cut my hair?
I got to move with the fashion
Or be outcast.
I know I should fight
But my old man he's really alright,
And I'm still living at home
(Even though it won't last.)

 

[The Large One]

I'm going back soon
Home to get that baboon
Who cut up my eye
Tore up my Levi's




Yeah, Quadrophenia lyrics tennis...

 

[Cheeky Monkey]

Great spot TLO, I'll hopefully be back from the pub in time for it. Failing that I-Player

 

[Norman Potting]

"Out of my brain on the 5:15" love it! Pedant alert - they used the wrong sort of train in the film - blue/grey stock in 1964 -no way!

 

[Stumpy Tim]

Cracking SPOT. That will be on my television this evening without doubt

 

[VAL1850]

Thanks for the heads up

You say she's a virgin.
I'm gonna be the first in.
Her fellah's gonna kill me?
Oh f***ing will he.

Blimey... just what you need in Eastbourne, with all those mobility scooters on the roads!

 

[Godstar]

I'll take on anyone,
Ain't scared of a bloody nose
Drink till i drop down
With one eye on my clothes...

 

[The Large One]

I'm the guy in the sky
Flying high flashing eyes
No surprise I told lies
I'm the punk in the gutter
I'm the new president
But I grew and I bent
Don't you know? don't it show?
I'm the punk with the stutter.

 

[T soprano]

" fell asleep on the train wound up in bloody neasden "

 

[LAMBRETTA MAN]

Got tons and tons of the precious vinyl but i gotta say that this is up there in my top 3....

 

[Hiney]

Saw the stage show in Southampton a couple of years ago - bloody brilliant.

The LP is one my most treasured possessions.

I ruddy LOVE The 'OO

 

[Marxo]

Another chance to see Leslie Ash's young lips!

It's a shame there aren't any out-takes so we could actually see Lesley Ash's young lips
