She is not technically minded and had her STB fitted by the changeover
team and has an old loft aerial.Other times she has commented that she
keeps on finding horse racing flicking through channels in the
afternoons so that would have to be RUK and ATR.
Surely there is no way she could be picking up subscription channels
with her set up.
John.
Is she suffering from an infection? They can cause hallucinations...

No medication and just one Toddy a day.
To imagine Gone With the Wind would be one Hell of an hallucination:-)

Who would pay to see Gone with the Wind in any case?

You mean you don't give a damn?
They won't understand that, most of 'em. Pearls before swine I tell you.

Right, but I'll worry about that tomorrow!

Well, Gone With The Wind was made over 70 years ago.

So was I.

They don't make Movies like the ones we used to watch.When they try
remakes they mostly fail. Also no loud music drowning out the dialogue
and actors who spoke clearly (apart from Brando)

Not so much that it's subscription, more that it's
only available via
satellite or cable (and possibly broadband).

She does not have a computer.
She said it was on Saturday March 30th
John.

Radio Times indeed shows it was on 5USA on that day,
at the same time as the racing on Channel 4.

Thank you, mystery solved! I missed that when I looked through the
listings after she mentioned it. Strange that two channels had it on on
the same day.
Now to find where all the mid week horses come from.
