London Summertime: 20:00
Paris Summertime: 21:00
New York local time 15:00
LA local time 12:00



PLEASE KEEP IN MIND THAT WE ARE ALL STARTING 10 MINUTES LATER !

The 19:00 deadline is set so that everybody has enough time to find their DVDs/Blu Rays, boot their players and get done with the menus and pause right before the gunbarrel sequence.

WE ARE STARTING PRECISELY AT 19:10



- Please make sure that everybody has their BluRay/DVD/VCR ready and start the player latest 19:00 GMT to get done with all the dodgy menus.
- PAUSE YOUR PLAYER RIGHT BEFORE THE GUNBARREL
- HIT PLAY PRECISELY AT 19:10.
I‘ll post some timecodes during the thread just in case that somebody has messed it up

    Something that may come up during viewing is the similarity between many of LALD's plot points and those of DN, so I thought I'd put a link to Thunderpussy's thread on that subject here for easy reference.

    While we're waiting, an easier question than for FRWL:

    Which word, essential to the plot, is never mentioned in LALD?
  • Number24Number24 NorwayPosts: 21,703MI6 Agent
    It's been a while since I last watched LALD, but is it "heroin"?
  • BarbelBarbel ScotlandPosts: 36,053Chief of Staff
    Nope.
  • Thunderbird 2Thunderbird 2 East of Cardiff, Wales.Posts: 2,774MI6 Agent
    Drugs?
    This is Thunderbird 2, how can I be of assistance?
  • BarbelBarbel ScotlandPosts: 36,053Chief of Staff
    Not that either.

    (Although come to think of it, you might be right- will try to keep an ear open for that tonight when we watch it. It wasn't the word I was thinking of, though)

    007?
  • BarbelBarbel ScotlandPosts: 36,053Chief of Staff
    :)) Pretty sure M says that.
  • Number24Number24 NorwayPosts: 21,703MI6 Agent
    I think it's pretty clear I haven't seen LALD in a long time and I'm just guessing. :))
  • BarbelBarbel ScotlandPosts: 36,053Chief of Staff
    I'm looking forward to seeing it tonight.

    Is it...Tarot?
    Yeah, well, sometimes nothin' can be a real cool hand.

    I do believe that you are correct, CHB, and that TB2 was also correct above. (Higgins, is of course, just being Higgins).
    Looks like I have to withdraw my question since there is more than one correct answer. The word I was thinking of was "virgin".

    The 2003 remastered CD of the soundtrack not only contains music not on the original release but remixed versions and/or alternate takes of the music that was included.
