This month's special feature
Great British Movies

1 Goldfinger. This James Bond film was made in 1964. It came after Dr No and From Russia With Love and many people believe it is the best of the Bond films. Bond is trying to stop Goldfinger stealing all the gold in Fort Knox. Bond chases Goldfinger in a specially made Aston Martin DB5 car which has many surprises for Bond's enemies.

2 The Italian Job. Made in 1969, this comedy crime film showed a gang of criminals going to Italy dressed as football hooligans to steal millions of pounds in gold from the Fiat car factory. The Mafia can't stop them and the police can't stop them as they race out of Turin in three mini cars, very small but fast cars which can drive on pavements and through subways.

3 Kind Hearts and Coronets. This was a very black comedy about a number of murders. The murderer was from a rich family but the family refused to help him. He decided to kill everybody until he was the only one left and could get all their money. Sir Alec Guinness played all 7 members of the family who were murdered, young and old, male and female.

4 Monty Python and the Holy Grail. The Monty Python team are famous for their strange humour and this film was no different. The story is about King Arthur but this film is very different to anything that has been written about the king in history books. On his journey he met a man with three heads, a group of giants who scare people by saying `ni' and a killer rabbit.

5 Brassed Off. Members of a work orchestra lose their jobs. The film looks at their problems with money and illness and a competition to find the best orchestra in the country which, of course, they win. You'll laugh one minute and cry the next.

6 The Full Monty. Six men decide they can earn money by dancing and stripping (taking their clothes off). The hero needs money because he has to pay his ex-wife money to look after his son. They get caught by the police and aren't sure that what they are doing is a good idea but finally, of course, the show goes ahead and they make their money.

7 Quadrophenia. This was based on a record by rock group The Who. It's about a boy called Jimmy. The first half of the film shows him getting ready for a weekend in Brighton where he and his friends are going to fight against their enemies. After the weekend, everything goes wrong. He is arrested, he loses his job, he loses his girlfriend and crashes his bike.

A Life was better before the weekend ________

B What an actor ________

C The army is coming ________

E An interesting car ________

F Are we doing the right thing? ________
