Isn't the mother folding terry nappies in the scene, though. I remember the series well because of that mac, which I had always thought was black. But that was probably because I had a black and white television at the time.
"I had a black and white television at the time". WOW - that's quite something for 1980!
Maybe a little tangential but I liked the bit where father, in order to drive home his point, picks up the pair of child's plastic pants from the washing basket and stretches and then releases the waistband-I guess to make it clear exactly what sort of garment they are.
Is it just me or don't they look a little large for a baby ?

Adults often used to do this and it can still arouse a frisson when done by the right person (in my case grown-up female but each to their own) in adult roleplay.

Well it was a new one on me!
Have you seen the one on ebay for over a hundred quid starting bid?

No, but I can imagine that would be the sort of starting bid going on what I've seen in the past.

"ARMAND" - it says available on Blu-ray in May - thanks for sharing, the scenes are nice!
I have to correct my former post - it seems there is only one Blu-ray version coming up with original Norwegian soundtrack and NOR + EN subtitles.
All other countries/versions are DVD only (but still much better than having nothing)... release date May 22nd (at least for Germany).
Thanks a lot for that information - much appreciated!
You're welcome - remember that movie is filmed on analogue 16 mm material so I doubt the BD version benefits so much more of its possible FullHD resolution. The original material is very limited in terms of resolution and details, the film grain is clearly visible and dark scenes don't make it better. So I'm not frustrated with the DVD only version here - it's nice to have such an offer at all!
timeless fashion is the best fashion - classic "rubberized" raincoats are timeless

Thanks once again - I've taken your informative comments onboard.
