The Stinking Pause Podcast - bringing you classic movies since 2013...some good, some not so good.

 

This week, an episode that has been eleven years in the making. 

At last, our dear friend Maurice, host of See Hear and Love That Album joins Scott, Paul and Charlie from Melbourne.

Also joining us, from York, is Steven, Scott's co host on the Reel Britannia podcast.

A word of warning - this episode is a bit sweary!

 

McVicar (1980)

John McVicar (Roger Daltrey) is an English career criminal locked up with all the other lifers in the dreaded E Wing of Durham Prison. Between riots and constant prison guard brutality, McVicar and fellow inmate Walter Probyn (Adam Faith) gradually dig a tunnel that enables their escape. Once on the outside, McVicar does his best to lie low and re-enter the lives of his wife (Cheryl Campbell) and infant son, despite the fact that police have labeled him "Public Enemy Number One."

 

"I suppose you think you got the better of us there. But just remember, kidder, you're in for ten years."

"Yeah, that's right, Mr. Pendel. But you're in for life, ain't yer?"
