Biggles - Trailer

[lamb220986]

I first saw this on ITV when staying at my grandparents house on a boring rainy weekend. I was about 7 or 8 years old then, and quite frankly I thought it was fucking quality. I've grown up to become a self-confessed snob of crap movies like this, but Biggles will always be a guilty pleasure of mine!

[wasp27]

LOVE this film, classic cheesy-but-fun 80s film! Tho one gripe...Sten guns in WW1??? Gotta get this on dvd

[pinkpanther5782]

same i mean i havent seen the first one yet =P

[Dredgion]

who ?

[92af]

Peter Cushing was the best british actor ever

[floydefoxiiird]

@92af I agree with you, fully.

[Joltyness]

Is this the official trailer? This has to be the worst editing I've ever seen!

[pinkpanther5782]

Well I wish they remade it but make so it's based on the books not on the producers imagination but BIGGLES HAS TO BE BRITISH same with algy and Ginger

[GroundrunnerGSClub]

@pinkpanther5782 I wish they'ed of made a sequel!

[Dristarg]

Last film that I saw at our old cinema before they pulled it down. Can't help wondering if this film inspired the TV series "Quantum Leap".

[GilbertsV1]

i want a remake with zac efron and martin landau !!

[TheWhiteOwl23]

Where did you come from? I HAVE NOO IDEA!

[theforbiddenplanet]

lol Nice, i can't believe I've never heard of this before as well! B-movie version of Back to the Future with Peter Cushing in!! 'One step, back in time'...that song was growing on me as well.

[slvgdvg]

I can' believe I've never heard of this movie.

[biggles106]

Havn't flown a while myself . We are all good here though.

[TributesnStuff]

Im going to upload this movie on this channel :)

[paladindarknite]

classic! comes to show the 80s rockd,

[CreativeGuy]

I LOVED this movie and would watch it every time it was on. Great stuff!!

[YPSJS22]

If you can fly a Sopwith Camel old boy - you can fly anything.

[XIOUH]

i still got this on VHS omg!

[ks700r81]

Haven't seen since 1989 (age 8)

[DoctaWhoFan101]

Havnt Seen This film since i was 4 or 5

Really wana see it again.

[ste309w]

havent seen this since I was about 6!

[AuziSWE]

Havent seen this movie for over 13 years or so. Would be nice to see again, it was not that bad as IMDB says as I recall.

[MrCarnivour]

just watched it on dvd yesterday after way to many years, this movie is so much fun, perfect eighties! an absolute must see, if you love the wicked stuff!:)

[slave2moonlight]

Never heard of this! Looks cool!

[MTwillman]

it is! ive seen it.

[Bearram1]

I remeber this one movie it was a great disappointment if you read the Biggles books growing up. But it's worth a few laughs.

I did like the soundtrack though... back in the 80s that is. :)

[switchest26]

thats a fair point, machine guns in 1917 we large cumbersome things, definatly not handheld!...loved this movie as a kid though!

[fakweet]

That's true. I just re watched it, and loved every minute.

[switchest26]

ahh the old ones are the best...i saw a movie an anime movie in the 80's called "masters of time" or "les Maitres du temps" a french film dubbe in english about a boy called Piel....EVERYONE whos seen it wants a copy of the english dub...and i got it..its rarer than batmans shit!

[fakweet]

Why does Biggles have a Sten submachine gun which was invented in world war 2?

[MattJupp]

I don't think historical accuracy was a major consideration when they made this film :o)

[0n3m4n4rm33]

He travels all throughout time...

[SPeacock]

@fakweet It's a Bergmann MP18, which was designed during WW1 and hit production in late 1917 / early 1918, around the time the WW1 parts of this film are set. :)

[fakweet]

@SPeacock Thats really interesting. I didn't know submachine guys were around in WW1. Did the allies have an equivalent to the mp 18? I wonder if the Germans had developed sub machine guns earlier if it would have affected the outcome of the war?

[SPeacock]

@fakweet As far as I know, the Allies didn't have an SMG equivalent to the MP18. They had a SAW called the Lewis Gun (much like the M249 and M60 machine guns of today).

[AceTheSalmon]

That looks like krapp. I want a biggles movie that just STAYS in 1917!!

[maccafan10]

AceTheSalmon. I agree. Too much modernistic 'must change it' attitude

What next, Oliver twist meets Terminator ?

H G Wells War of the Worlds was the same.

[dctim]

to be honest for what it's worth it's an OK film.

[silverfencer]

The film isnt too bad, I mean its nothing great but its worth watching to see the bi-planes and the dialouge

[Gleb1978]

Nice idea about sequel! Of course all actors should be the same.

[haddolea]

I loved this film when i was younger i always hoped there would be a sequel. thanks for posting

[kevinadair1]

[nukedude]

I saw this when it first came out. Cool to see something from my past. Most people have never heard of it on this side of the pond. Great movie. Still like the helicopter going back in time.

[silverfencer]

[silverfencer]

[DEANMARITA]

I read almost all the Biggles books. I am a huge fan. The movie was crap,though.

[biggles83]

absoloutly. time travel?? bah!!

[jargen07]

the movie was good, just a bit to far from the books

[Weavuk]

John anderson, gladiators? haha

[britishairborne]

I grew up with this film lol

[balsingh1]

contrary to the other comments, I actually liked the film!!

[DJn0b0dy]

awesome movie

and awesome series...

[subscooby]

Is this the original theatrical trailer? It seems a bit of a bodge job. A bit like the film itself I suppose. Still, thanks for posting.

[TWC17]

My great great uncle was best friends with captain W.E. Johns

[LadyJoy92]

Holy sugar smacks Batman! I love and adore this song..not really the movie, but this song is superb. Thanks so much for posting. WHOO HOO!

[Olster81]

is jon anderson the singer from yes? what a classic,nothings too obscure fro youtube it seems

[giddig]

Any chance of anybody uploading more clips from this movie? That would be ace. Any bits with that "Want to be a hero?" music would be very cool.

[Azalnubizar]

Jon Anderson is the singer

[Xlitax]

i love this movie and the song do you wanna be a hero do you know who sing that song ?
