I never watched that show, nor the reruns.

I've just discovered that a few of my favorite Brit series are on YouTube and have been binge watching them.

Each to their own, I say! :-)

Considering when A CLOCKWORK ORANGE was published ( 1962 ), the dystopian London portrayed, was, I suppose, a cautionary tale, though much exaggerated, vis-a-vis that era's white TEDDY BOYS gang culture and the outre clothes, hair styles, and slang that was in vogue at that time; not to mention the adult criminal gangs that were very famous back then...so famous that some years later, MONTY PYTHON was using them in skits.

If you’re a fan of McDowell and his early work, try to find “If...” and “O, Lucky Man”.

Surrealistic.

/secretly watches old Oliver Reed flicks, too
