Funny, he doesn' t look Jewish. Mayyybe, if we break his nose.
GW
Seriously, he did a good job.
| |
Great find, Chris...how do you do it, LOL!
And how can anyone even think of hurting that lovely face?
Jane
| |
Due to the ease with which everyone gets upset, subsequent postings didn't seem to understand that I was referring to the fact that "Ross McCall" doesn' t sound Jewish and that we have often had nonJews make fun of our noses. hence the comment.
It seems as though Liebgott was supposed to balance the Jewish situation as the "good guy" to Sobel' s "bad guy".
So, to you Guarneres out there on the ship, although I' m not Liebgott, I am Jewish.
To those of you who still have you spool,I' ll share a Happy New Year with you. We all could use some good. To poor Jonathon, I hope he finds a happier place or learns to question a remark that makes him unhappy.
| |
hi gold and all!
yep i'm seeing what you're seeing. but hey we deserve a pic of him as there is so little to be found about the real Joe Liebgott...
gold; i participated in the airborne walking tour yesterday with a friend of mine, karin (from the pics). we didn't know it was such a great event! apparently, it is the biggest 1 day walking event in the WORLD! 30,000 people walking and it was great! it was in oosterbeek near arnhem and it marks the beginning of the ceremonies regarding Market Garden. it was the 56th (!) time it was organised and i took a lot of pics! what was really great was that there were a lot of soldiers dressed up the way they looked in 1944! so i also took a pic of this screaming eagle wearing a complete jumpsuit! yahoo it was great! (and only 15 km of walking, what do you say?)...
also, you had to pay 4 euros to participate and this money is used to enable vets to come back to holland every year to be at the market garden ceremonies....great, huh???
i'll post the pics asap (will take 2 weeks or more as i still got some pics left to shoot, will do that in eindhoven sep 18)...!
irene
| |
A remark that makes me unhappy? Hargh! What I understood from SOME of the previous postings was some ladies leaving nice comments about some male eye candy. Hence my comment. At least Gold chose to see the funny side, which was always my intention.
Regards, Jonathan
| |
cias, i don't think anyone got upset over it, we think, or at least I think it was funny, but seriously, i don't want his nose broken, even if it would make him look Jewish ;)
Irene, glad you could join them.
Wow! That's a lot of people! Maybe you can post those pics in Ross' group or something? (ain't he cute up there?) By the way, did you get to see a pic of the real Liebgott? I think i saw one but i forgot where? Did you get to see any vets there by chance? You're going to the Sept. 18 event aren't you? Well, hope you can get us a lot of pics from there! Be looking forward to seeing those pics, good luck! ;) lotsa
s at ya!
Jonathan, that WAS funny!!! Men always react like that! Hehe
Gold
| |
Cias,
For what it's worth, I understood your comment about Ross' nose to be a joke...my reply was meant to be the same.
Jonathon,
I too, chose to see the funny side. And yes, i do enjoy male eye candy...nothing wrong with that
Jane
| |
You set of lecherous wimmin' you. LOL!
Regards, Jonathan
| |
gold; a short respons; got classes in like....2 minutes. i saw 1 pic of the real lieb it was at this site that shows all the bob characters i think i found it via google band of brothers character guide/index (not sure). if you got the time, will you look it up and see if it's the same one? otherwise i'd LOVE to see the one you're referring (SP?) to!
did not see many vets. dutch ones were represented but i think the majority of the english/polish ones will be arriving shortly since the ceremonies don't start untill like 17 sep...
i will take a lot of pics in eindhoven, but it's in the evening (not very good for my pics) and also i don't know if i'll see bill and babe! there are so many people there...and the route is 22 km long...
will see you all soon gotta run now!
irene
| |
Jonathan, *giggle*
Irene, question: did you finish that reply up there like within 2 minutes!!! ;)
Oh well, let's talk some time soon again and think where we saw the pics we caught a glimpse of. I still can't remember where, but i'll try to dream of it tonight.
Have fun at school! *yuck!* j/k
Gold

Hi Folks,
Here's to hoping that someone takes some photos of the events going on in Holland. Seriously wish I could be there. Used to have an associate who went over the North Sea to Holland to take part in an annual drive along "Hell's Highway" in lots of WWII military vehicles. The event was popular with the local populace, as far as I was made aware.
Regards, Jonathan
| |
hey jonathan!
yep I am taking pics! hope they'll satisfy your need...i'm not a very good photographer. but i'll do my best and i am going to as many ceremonies/events i can possible go to! in the last few weeks i went to see the oosterbeek war cemetary and i participated in the airborne walk. as you know i'll be going to eindhoven sep 18 to MAYBE catch a glimpse of bill&babe and i'll be doing the 'bridge to bridge'walk oct 27 too...i can only promise to do my best on the pics...(don't have a digital camera
)
hey it's an interesting thing you mentioned there. i was planning a Hell's Highway tour in the summer (just for myself
) but the weather wasn't really co-operating (one day too hot next day too wet....) i haven't heard of an annual organised drive along Hell's Highway?!??!! is it for owners of WW2 military vehicles only?
i can totally imagine it being popular with the people here. every event/ceremony i go to is absolutely CROWDED and i can guarantee (SP i'm sure) you the dutch people are still thankful and don't want the memory of those days to fade away...!
irene
| |
Hey Irene!
Thanks for the hard work and great sentiments. As far as I know the military vehicle event along "Hell's Highway" is fairly regular. It's all softskins, that I do know. One fella turned up with a Kubelwagon last year. Got it spat on a few times.
I'm hoping to make it accross to Holland one day as my family has connections with the British Paras and the Dutch resistance.
Regards, Jonathan.
| |
Jonathon,
Do you know where your family was involved in the Resistance? My Oma and Opa were Dutch Jews who were hidden during the war, and they became active in the Resistance during the later years of the war. I think they were in Heerland. (My apologies if I mangled the spelling of that!) Unfortunately, that's about all I know, as my Oma doesn't want to talk about it. We thought they were the only ones to survive out of the extended family, but about a month ago, we discovered one of my Oma's cousins was living in Arnhem! I think now I have a perfect excuse to visit Holland now!
Manda
Also, what's a "softskin"?
| |
Hiya Manda and thanks for the comments.
I'm not too sure about where my relative "operated", all I know is that it was in Holland. I do know that she kept going to Holland for many years after the war and I could ask her where she liked to go then, and why?
Softskins is the term for military vehicles such as cars and lorries/trucks.
Regards, Jonathan.

Gold/Irene - hello. There are two small pics of the real Joe Lieb on a couple of sites I bookmarked. I hope these addresses are right - if not, say so on here and I'll retrace my steps to where I found them and look them up properly for you:
e506th.com
currahee.hispeed.com
As for the above screen version of Mr.Lieb, I can understand why you'd want to gaze at that for a while, for he's certainly a handsome looking individual...reminds me of me a bit.
Incidentally, Irene, are you interested in Capt. Ron Speirs? There seem to be many Dutch web sites devoted to that fine man. I have one at
go2war2.nl/band-of-brothers
which I kept because it has a fabulous, heart-warming picture of Mr.Speirs meeting Dick Winters at the re-union in Normandy last year.
| |
Ziggy, thanks for the help.
Reminds you of you a bit? Does that mean you're a hottie too? ;)
or did that mean that we remind you of you a bit?
*scratches head* did that make sense??
Gold
| |
Does anyone else think that its kinda funny that Ross McCall went from not having any posts here to having 28 in only a few days? I noticed that and thought it was kinda funny, in a kinda weird way. Anyway, I'm glad there are finaly posts here, because Ross is a total hottie!!
~*Brenna*~
| |
Yes, i did notice at one point that Ross' page didn't have any posts...actually he had posts...all over these boards...just not on his assigned page...but i knew this would change...nice to see it did.
Jane
Ross in 'Waterland'...forget the year of this...but he must be about twelve...and cute as the dickens, LOL
| |
LOL Jane, thanks for sharing that one here. Cute!
Brenna, i'm with ya there. Such a hottie!
Gold
| |
Lol! Its good to know that we're in agreement there Gold:-D. Jane, that is such a cute picture! Where did you find it?
| |
Yup!
| |
There's little more intimidating than a gang of lecherous wimmin', apart from a drunken gang of lecherous wimmin'. Scampers off into the darkness.
LOL, Jonathan.
| |
Jonanthan,
Well, now that you mention it...at the gathering of my BOB-related fangroup....i discovered something called 'Maker's Mark Whiskey'.
Very nice, smooth...
Brenna,
The pic is from a movie called 'Waterland'...I created it with a screen capture device attached to my puter.
Jane
| |
You have a BoB related fangroup and meetings involve inbibing "Makers Mark"??????????
Sounds like the kind of thing that inspired a certain "hubble bubble" scene by Shakespeare. Or are you just trying to scare me on purpose?
Timid of UK.
| |
But not too timid to evoke THAT image!!! WHEW! Better dive for the foxhole, Jones -- just in case there's another Shakespeare devotee here.
LOL BK
| |
Yes, but I *was* squinting at the monitor when I thought of that image. LOL.

Weeeell, I tried to join. But I'm not in Yahoo. So I had to register. That was when the problems started. You see I'm not au fait with these here computers. But at least I thik I've got a Yahoo ID, now. Now what do I do?????? I know, "A Comedy of Errors".
But I did see the photos of you in Vegas. Who's who, then?
Get used to you lecherous wimmin'? Damn it all, I'm British don't you know? Stiff upper lip and all that. Humph!
Scampers back off into the darkness......
Regards, Jonathan.
| |
Jon, you crazy kid! Where you from in the norf?
| |
Gold, just seen your message. A hottie? Yes, darling, I could turn heads during Paris fashion week. Then again, that wouldn't be difficult - who wants to look at some hideous, anorexic model bird with microscopic knockers, anyway? In contrast, I could just look at the pictures of these top lads from Easy all day.
| |
NOW I'm getting really concerned, Ziggy. You pronounced north as "norf". You're not from "darn sarf", are you? I thought I was safe here, in good old Blighty. Thought that everyone else was overseas. I mean, Joe Stalin had the whole of Eastern Europe as HIS buffer zone. I thought that I'd be safe with the Atlantic!
Scampers back into his freshly dug foxhole in the Darkness (Sheffield - UK)

I wish I was better versed in Shakespeare…
Don’t stay in that foxhole too long…come out and live dangerously, LOL!! Seriously, are you interested in the actors & the real vets? Join Easycompanygroup…look for the link on this messageboard.
Mmm, again, I’m confused…Yom Kippur…what does this have to do with BOB?
Is that what Mal is cooking in the artillery canister…ewww!! I was wondering what why the men are complaining about the smell!
Jane
PS: Jonathan, what 'hubble bubble' scene...i don't know squat about Shakespeare...should go back to school, cos I do wanna learn
| |
Jane
Both the"Bubble, bubble" and "..tale told by an idiot.." are from Shakespeare' s "Macbeth". As you know Carwood Lipton favored the now named "Band of Brothers" speech from Shakespeare' s "Henry V".
William Faulkner made the words "sound and fury" into the title of one of his novels.
I wrote the post on Yom Kippur, the holiest day in Judaism, during which we are supposed to fast and pray forgiveness for our sins. A day is not enough for some of the people I know.
As Cole Porter wrote in "Kiss Me Kate", which was built around Shakespeare' s "Taming of the Shrew", "Bush Up on Your Shakespeare."
Gary

Jonathon
Do you approve of the brief tour of Willie?
I bet the "lecherous, drunken wimmen: wouldn' t mind looking at Mel Gibson in "Hamlet", eh?
Gary
| |
A bit of trivia regarding Mel Gibson's 'Hamlet'. It was Shane Taylor's first on-screen role. He was an extra and can be seen in quite a few scenes.
tree
| |
LOL and more LOL!
Jon, it would be good to have you with us lecherous wimmin' in EasyCompany group. Yet another nut to join us eh Jane? ;)
I like Shakespeare but that was a long time ago since i've read his stories. *scratches head*
Gold
| |
No, you great Yorkshire puddin', I pronounced north as in Shaun Ryder's norf, as in Manchester and Lancashire. But just to furrow your brow further, let me tell you that for the past 5 yrs I've been living in deepest, genteel Surrey, you know. Ha, that ought to keep you underground for a while, Jones.
Talking of totally unsuitable actors for roles in Shakespeare, what about Keanu in Much Ado? Was that meant to appeal to the inner-city generation? What next, the girls from Destiny's Child auditioning for Lady Bracknell? The best thing they could do is to show BoB in schools, but the woolly-minded Libs might think it unfair that one side won.
| |
Ziggy
Especially since the Allies, in general, won, but the US(the Great Satan)in particular.
Gary

Jane,
In the picture, you said there was a Chris N. from Portland, OR. Is she a member of this site?
Manda
PS: To everybody else: it's a wonderful thing to see so many Bardophiles out there, even if y'all do tend to bastardize the text :-)

Hi folks. Thanks to Gary for explaining the connections to Shakespeare. The "Hubble bubble" scene involves, er, three witches around a cauldron. *Ducks into foxhole* No return fire? I'll carry on, then.
Gary, my own personal observation of Yom Kippur is a certain conflict. And yes, I'm absolutely certain that this gang of wimmin' would like Mel in Hamlet. "That a film about a little bitty pig, right?"- film quote. Sorry.
Alrighty, folks. I'm gonna spend the evening downing some "Dutch Courage" as we in the UK call it (booze) until my nerves are under control. Then I'm gonna step forward and volunteer for the hazardous mission of joining the EasyCo group. In the meantime I'm going to revise my foxhole and turn it into an impregnable bunker.
Ziggy? You've compared me to some Mancunian drunk?
Folks, just to let you "in" on the sacrelidge, Ziggy has compared me to someone who comes from *the* rival county to the one I live in. That's bad. I'm sure that you folks over in the US must have similar sentiments to your neighbour states?
Sure, we have similar sentiments as you may do about our version of North and South. Though we don't have a "Manson-Nixon Line". But Ziggy's refering to an East-West rivalry, here. Ziggy, you're not a nice chap. I'm really sensetive at heart. LOL!
Regards, Jonathan. Off to procure more concrete for the bunker.......
| |
["That a film about a little bitty pig, right?"- film quote. Sorry. Alrighty, folks. ]
LOL, I liked that one…after I thought about it...I'm not the sharpest tool in the shed...sorry.
[I'm gonna spend the evening downing some "Dutch Courage" as we in the UK call it (booze) until my nerves are under control. Then I'm gonna step forward and volunteer for the hazardous mission of joining the EasyCo group. ]
Fortifying yourself before joining the group? Why? We’re harmless…really…and very nice…you might actually enjoy yourself.
Jane
Ps: UK, huh? You don’t happen to act, do you? If yes, maybe imbibing and loading up on concrete is a good idea, LOL! I'm kidding...come on over...you'll love it!
| |
Hiya Jane (hic),
If I remember rightly, the quote is from "Renaissance Man" with Dany DeVito.
Er, I've been known to be a bit of a Thespian in my time. (With one foot firmly in the bunker) why?
Anyway, chin in, chest out. Boldly marches forth to join EasyCo. "'Tis a far far better thing I do now.........."
Regards, Jonathan.
| |
No, Jon, you don't quite understand: you see, I'm from the...Oh, never mind!
Manda, here's Keanu bastardising the Bard:
"I would rather be...A canker...In a hedge
Than a rose...in his grace - dude!"
What part could Keanu have played in BoB? With his penchant for high speed and action, he'd have to have played Ron Speirs, dashing through Foy - jeeps, just the thought of that is sacrilege. I thought Matthew Settle did a really convincing job there.
Yeah, Cias, I know, mate, it's like that over here. The Libs are fully in control, in the councils, in education, in sport, in everything, and with their doctrine of absolute parity for all, they hate a strong, purposeful nation like the US and spread their bile about Her, which the dumb masses over here believe only too readily. The decent press does its best to counter this idiocy, but to little avail. Believe me, I count myself part of a very small Band of Britons who feel the need for a strong Germany for Europe, and a strong US for the sake of the globe.

Ziggy, you're from the:
a) IRS
b) Planet Mars
c) Waltons
d) Home for disturbed people
e) 82nd Airborne

Jonathan,
Cool....when you do introduce yourself...so we can say, 'Hi'...Gold you already know...quite a few peeps from Easygroup post here, too
Tree,
Hi Kiddo, anything new on the Shane front? I do wish we in US had more access to projects featuring the BOB guys from UK...oh well...patience, patience...nice to see you posting...take care. [My bud, Tree is also in Easycompanygroup
]
Ziggy
Keanu in BOB? While he was good in 'Speed'...i'm going to assume you are kidding around [aren't you?]
The casting in BOB was perfect...no one could do Speirs better than MS....
I liked Branaugh's 'Much Ado About Nothing'.
However, when I view it now, i feel sad since the Branaugh/Emma Thompson combo is no more...I'm sure they had good reasons for parting...but I hate to see break ups.
Jane
| |
Righto Jane,
I'll go to EasyCo right now and post an introduction. It's only polite.
Regards, Jonathan.
| |
Jonathon
I have no idea what you mean about a conflict in Yom Kippur- weariness and hunger, yes, but conflict? Also, discussing a pig of any size in the same paragraph with Yom Kippur is indeed an Odd Couple.
Jane
I went to the link and was having such grief with Yahoo that I quit. I read where you told Jonathon of a short cut. How does that work?
Gary
| |
Hi Jane,
Chris is the man to ask about Shane. I hope we all hear good news soon!
You sure are recruiting for Easy here. Might have to loan Chris the frying pan. ;-)
tree
| |
Tree,
Right...im sure Shane has been busy with work after BOB....
The frying pan.......the one that tends to land on the heads of the members of Richardspeightjrgroup?
Aaaaaww, no thanks....besides....im more of a microwave kinda girl.....never heard of anyone getting smacked with a micro...ya know?
Jane

Gary,
Sent you an Invite to Easygroup....be looking for your posts...welcome to the group
Jane
| |
Gary, I was refering to the "Yom Kippur " War.
Tree, sorry for forgetting to thank you for explaining the "funk" thing to me on the "Moose" thread.
Jane, I work in mental health and I can assure you that the microwave makes a handy missile for clients!
Regards, Jonathan.
| |
Really, Jane, there's no need to feel sad about the break-up of luvvy Kenny and luvvy Emmy - it was for the best, and much to their mutual consent. Can you just imagine the conversation at the breakfast table:
Emmy: "Lo! Wherefore art thou going, dearest?"
Kenny:"Sweet, tarry whilst I go to the papershop
for my copy of 'Big Uns', 'pon my troth
only to peruse the naughty missives found
therein, and ne'er to cast eye on the evil
imagery."
The novelty of that wears off in a matter of days. They were glad to see the back of each other.
And now I'm going to post to Jonesy here, for I know he'll read this - he prowls these site links like a monster from the vast deep, casting a deadly tentacle over each in turn. I'm from the Duchy of Lancaster, Jones, not some pseudo-northerner like yourself right down there in deepest South Yaaarkshir' - that's virtually the Midlands - but I happen to live these days in the beautiful county of Surrey. And what that means, of course, is that with you right bang in the middle of my place of origin and my present abode, I've got you surrounded - you poor b******.
| |
And welcome to the "Joanzi an' Ziggi Show" folks.
And so, Ziggi? You wish to play the Captain Ahab to my roving monster of the deep, yes? Why you obsessive nasty person, you.
But let's slow things down right now and talk about the Duchy of Lancaster for a while, shall we? Hmmmm, I'm a relative southerner compared to you, am I? Now, according to my records the Duchy has very little property north of where I live. So are you *sure* about your statement? The only concentration of Duchy property north of here is only jst north of here. At a place famous for its liquorice "cakes". Unless of course, a certain Psycho-capitain with a wooden leg wants to educate me?

Liebgott is sweet
Is he really Jewish?
Iines
| |
Iines, we used to think he was Jewish but according to his son, Liebgott was Catholic.
gold
| |
Ok I think that Liebgott was Jewish, but maybe he married a Catholic woman. If you are Jewish and you marry outside your race then one of the spouses has to convert religions...Maybe Liebgott converted to the Catholic religion.
Brook...Skip Muck and Donald Hoobler's #1 fan
| |
I agree with Brook. Maybe he decided to convert to Catholicism (sp) when he met his wife. After what he saw in the war he might have been to shaken up to continue to be Jewish. I'm sure there were many many who converted to other religions because of what happened during WWII. I have heard/read of such. So it is possible that he was Jewish during the war but converted afterward and never told his family.

Thank you Kelly for backing me up. I really appreciate it. If you aim messenger my id is Ecompany06. And my yahoo email is Skip_Muck_fan@yahoo.com. Thanks again.

| |
Stupid question maybe but: Is that man in left Liebgott? That upper side to text "click here to bookmark". I have wondered it a few days, and it would be nice to know
Iines
| |
Nope, Iines. It's Shane Taylor, portraying Medic Eugene Roe. But your right in wondering -- he has his face in its concerned concentrating tension and for an instant, he does resemble Ross McCall. BK
| |
no way! that IS Liebgott!!!!!!! i DON'T believe it's shane taylor!
irene, stupified!
ps i was always wondering why they put Joe up there instead of Roe...
| |
eyes, nose, chin......no WAY that's Shane!
irene (checking some other pics to make sure)
| |
LOL, that is Ross McCall!
gold
| |
Let's ask Derek and Chris. BK
| |
Yes, he really looks like Ross McCall. I can't believe if he is Roe. But maybe it's really better to ask someone who surely knows it
| |
so who does?
HELP us!
(i already know i'm right LOL
)
irene
| |
I say that it is Ross McCall
Melissa
| |
It's Ross in ep 7
gold
| |
i agree!!!!
irene
| |
Yes, it must be Liebgott
But who put that picture here? He must know it surely.
Iines
| |
This topic about,"Is that Liebgott....." started by Iines on Oct. 19 has me puzzled because I have no photo on this site in that area and wonder if what is being discussed comes from episode 7 and which picture?
Gary
| |
Gary, don't you really have any picture here? Strange...
Well, maybe it's better to forget that topic
Iines
| |
Iines
I have the head shot of Ross, twelve year old Ross and Malarky making terrible stew in the back of the truck. That' s it.
Gary
| |
No gary, it's at the left side part. You see the Main Menu, How to, Search for, Miscellaneous, Translation folders? Down there we can see 2 pictures which changes from a Screen cap pic of Ross in ep 7 and the title "Band of Brothers" with shadows of the men. Makes sense yet?
I asked Chris about it but he's not sure. I think Derek must know. But i still believe it's Ross. ;)
gold
| |
yeah so do I!
irene
| |
Did you know that Ross was the young Freddy Mercury in the video of MIRACLE?
bregje
| |
Another try
| |
Yeeeees!!!!!
It worked. He is cute isn't he?
bregje
| |
Yep, i knew that. There were some pics of him at his yahoo group and he looked cute and funny!!!
gold
| |
Yes, mostaches and everything
Iines
| |
owwwww He's such a cuty!
You got more cuty pics from Ross ???!!!
I would loooooooooove to see them :-P
| |
Leonie, try going to Ross' yahoo group, lots of them there! ;)
gold
| |
ow! How do i get there???
Would you guys believe me if i would say that i saw a Ross McCall look a like ??! He REALLY looked like Ross!!! But then with blonde hair, ow he was so cute!!!
But please tell me how do get to the Yahoo group of Ross
| |
Here goes:
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/rossmccallfanclub/
If you can't get in, you might need to register at yahoo first? Good luck!
Who is this man you say is Ross' look alike? But who looks better though? Ross or the look alike? ;)

| |
Gold,
I picked up my book today, I had to order it in a while ago so now I have both the DVD'S and the book, so you won't have to correct me as much anymore. LOL!!!
Have a great day,

Enjoy the book and the DVDs!!!
gold
| |

| |
Ross looks better, ofcourse!!!!!
This *look-alike* was just a kid ( 14-15 years old! ) But he just reaaaaaaly looked like Ross!
But Ross still looks better with darker hair :P
| |
Lol! I agree!
See you in the group Leonie!
gold
| |
The picture with him & Freddie, is so cute!! Does anyone know when this was taken? He looks like he is about 12 years old? Love the moustache!!
| |
melissa
the song is from 1989 so i think you are right about his age
| |
Or 13 since he was born on 1976
gold
| |
born in 1976..? Then he's like...27! Then he must have been 25 when the series were taking.
He's so cute
| |
Will be 27 on January

Hey i've got his birthday in my diary! Lets see...
January the 13th!!!!
Am i right?

Was just surfing imdb and noticed that Ross's info had been updated with a new film called "LD50"...interestingly it also stars Tom Hardy (Janovec). Go the 'brothers' working together!
| |
Oh my! I didn't know that! I gotta go there quickly!!! Thanks Erin!
gold
| |
Thnaks for telling us, Erin!!!!
Yay!!! Another movie to love
!!!! What's the movie about?
Hey cool that 'Jenovec' will be in it too
!!!
Have to check it out !!
| |
I pretty much know nothing about this film...except that Ross plays "Gary". Which pretty much still means i know nothing
.
Here is a link to the production company involved in the film http://www.randomharvestpictures.co.uk/
Here is a summary of the plot from that site: A group of Animal Rights Activists get a coded email from an imprisoned friend, they follow the clues and break into a lab in hope of freeing it's inhabitants. Finding the lab abandoned the group soon get more then they bargained for when they find themselves trapped, like lab rats, inside a mysterious experiment, where they are pitted against each other, the experiment and their past. But who is controlling this experiment, what do they want and what results are they loking to discover? This action packed thriller will take you on a mind bending and blood soaked adventure that you will never forget.
Souds...interesting. Probably a thriller/horror flick...by the sounds of it anywayz. It actually souns a lot like a British version of the recent German flick Das Experiment.
Holy **** I just read that melanie Brown (aka Scary Spice) will be in the film...starting to get scared now! EEP!
Ok...I'm off to bed...night all!

layla
| |
Hey layla (you new here?) Welcome and i hope you love the site. Thanks to Derek and Chris for the wonderful job huh? I agree with ya, Ross did a very fantastic job as Liebgott.
Who's your favorite BoB?
gold
| |
Gold, we ALL know who your favorite BoB is?!? Maybe ROSS!!??!!
Melissa
| |
leibgott is a conflicted character, i wasn't sure i ever liked him, but in defense of every character they were different people back then...there is so much we still don't know about their lives. intriguing isn't it...
enjoy life
jackie
| |
Bregie,
Nice find...don't know which Ross would find more embarrassing...your 'Ross as Freddie' pic or the 'Waterland' one, LOL
...
Hello Gold...whenever there is a Ross discussion, there you are, hee, hee...hey all, our own Miss Marigold got her own 'call out' from Ross in his group...what a nice guy...
Jane
| |
Hahahaha Jane! Shhhh! ;)
Melissa, how did you ever guess? *innocent look*
gold
| |
Oh, Gold, it is such a hard guess to make!?! I have been a lurker on the yahoo site. I think it is great that he takes the time & writes back to the group. What a great guy!! But you already knew that right, Gold??
Melissa
| |
Yeah Ross is great, i agree. Manny of the guys look so nice to me who were playing the Easy guys.
I just saw the making of BoB and i have to say, Ross has a lovely accent
| |
Yes, he's great
Gold, did you really got reply from Ross?? Lucky you
Iines
| |
Of course i already know that Melissa ;) You should come out and stop lurking at the group
Leonie, indeed, such a lovely accent *sigh*
Iines, nope not yet, but he said he'll try to write back; though i'm not expecting anything soon yet cause i know he's busy
gold
| |
Gold you lucky ba........ ow no i wouldn't say that
. You lucky girl :Þ !!! Please tell us when you got some reaction of him ok?
| |
Sure thing Leonie, i'd shout it to the whole world. LOL ;)
gold
| |
Bet you would :Þ !!!
| |
Hey all,
I have decided that I have been lurking around for long enough so I have taken the big brave step and decided to join you all!
Hey Gold (waves madly) and all the others from Ross' Group.
Rach
| |
welcome Rach !!!!
| |
Hey Rachel!!! You shouldn't lurk here! I know how you are in the groups! ;) Welcome and enjoy the site!
gold
| |
Welcome Rach
Iines
| |
Hey, Rach!! Welcome.
Gold, I've got a question: are you sure you're not a wizard or something like that? is everything possible for you? well, hello again on another Ross' site.Girls, thanks for Christmas greetings. Last night I dreamed about Ross. It's a very good omen ;-)
| |
Welcome here Rachel :-) !!!
Ewa, you had a dream about Ross ??! Well, me too last night... He's a pretty good kisser :Þ !!!!
| |
LOL Ewa! That was funny! Shall i take it as a compliment?? ;)
Cool! I had a dream about Ross too but we weren't kissing
gold
| |
Too bad Gold, guess he likes me more. whehehehe, just kiddin'
| |
Well, Lechan, we should come to an understanding. Will we share him with Gold? ;-)Look out! I heard when you dream about person you like (very much...) at Christmas Eve's night, you'll meet this person or have a good next year.
Gold, it was a compliment. I think I'm not such a crazy girl like you are (I hope my friends won't read it). I only know dialogues by heart.
| |
LOL! I was going to take that as a compliment but then she called me crazy! ;) A nut would be more appropriate
gold
| |
No insults, Gold! ;)I know you're a quiet, sedate, polite girl. And you like the same type of men :P You can kill me now. My friend always says:"You're crazy, Ewa. You know why? If a nut says he's normal, he's incurable." So I don't think "crazy" is insulting. I like oneself. ;)
I've got a question, maybe someone can help me. In ep.6 are 2 singin' guys. They're terribly yelling. I think Liebgott is one of them, but I'm not sure.
| |
Ewa, yes i remembered that it was Liebgott because the guy that was singing with him said his name... I'm not sure but i think
Sad, i haven't seen any dreams about any BoB actor
Weard because i like them so much
Leonie, lucky you, have kissed Ross! In dreams but still...;)
Iines
| |
Ewa, yep that was Liebgott singing, I remember it because I hadn't seen that part before.
I got the DVD for Christmas and I watched a few of Ron Livingston's video diaries and I have to say Ross even looks good in the dark!
| |
You're all right, that was Liebgott and Alley singing with all their might when they should have been quiet! ;)
Ewa, no insults taken
gold
| |
You're all right, that was Liebgott and Alley singing with all their might when they should have been quiet! ;)
Ewa, no insults taken
gold
| |
Iines, if you have brother or sister, they're lucky. my sister has this kind of dreams very often. and I must hear her out!! girls, don't tell me about all this DVD's extras. I don't have a DVD player
| |
Ewa, yes, i understand it might be annoying to listen others's dreams. But there's no way i would tell this kind of dreams to my brother;)
I didn't have DVD player either but my brother sold me his old one...and if you find paperboardbox, it's much cheaper than tin box. And it includes all same things. Best luck to you, i keep fingers crossed
Back to thing that Leonie said, i watched the making of BoB too and yes, Ross has so very lovely accent
Iines
| |
don't say he has this odd English accent. it sounds like somebody is talking with noodles in his mouth. to the Britisch: sorry, if I insult you. thanks Iines. I feel much better
I've seen "Band of Brohers" in shops, but only on DVDs. is it on VHS in the States or UK?
I wonder what's your favourite moment of "Band of Brothers" with Ross in the leading role.
| |
Ewa, you must hear him talking, it sounds so lovely, you must like it
I like the moment when Winters put Liebgott to tell prisoners that they have to go back, and when he has told that, he starts crying. Sometimes i feel that he's not very emotional, but in that moment that side of him come out too
Iines
| |
Hey Iines, I agree with you!
That scene was really emotional....and it left me positively sobbing!
The only other time I've cried watching TV was in episode 6 of Band of Brothers...
Does anyone know what happened to Mr. Liebgott after the war?
Thank you!
Helen
(By the way, Ewa, I think I've seen Band of Brothers on VHS....but I'm in Australia...)
| |
Helen, look under Liebgott's folder and there's a little info about him there.
gold
| |
thanks, Helen. I just want to see those extras, cause since girls started to talk about it I can't sleep at night.
Ewa
| |
Thank-you Gold!
That was very useful!
And Ewa, I know EXACTLY how you feel..hahaha..
| |
Here's a site that no Ross McCall fan should have to do without!

Thanks Janine, great site
Iines

Heard today that Ross is back in L.A. working on the movie version of the childern's book, "Polar Express". Hanks and Zemeckis are in charge.

Yaaaaaay! Thanks for the heads up Chris!!!
gold

Hey, I'm new...sadly...so I don't know very many people...been reading some of these posts, very interesting!! I don't know if I could have a favorite BoB!! I love them all!! But maybe...
Eugene takes first...second maybe...uh, better not do this! Ahhhh...cant pick favorites!!
Confuzzeled Evelyn
P.S,
Where are yall from? I'm from Ontario
| |
Hi, I'm new too, I decided to registrate...don't know why it took me so long...so Evelyn you're not the only one. I'm from Holland and I love BoB!!! I can't get enough of it...I agree it's difficult to pick out a favorite, they're all great!
Gosia
| |
Holland eh? Wow! I'm full blooded Dutch...except I can't speak the language (well just a wee bit) and I wasn't born there.
I've been wanting to travel to see Holland. My Oma (Grandmother) and my mother were born there...my Oma lived through the whole of WW 2 and has told me many stories...very terrible. Do you know where Putten, Utrecht is? If you do, thats where my Oma was born and raised.
Evelyn
| |
so you're Dutch! Yes, I know were Putten is...I live near Utrecht, myself! You should travel to Holland and see where your mother and grandmother were born...
Gosia
| |
There become more and more Dutch people member of this website. I've my own Dutch website about Band of Brothers, and since the Series was aired here for the second time more and more people became a fan of Band of Brothers! I got a lot of e-mail from people who are asking for information. There are even people who make a special paper ( I hope it's the right word) about Band of Brothers. I just wanted to let you know that Band of Brothers is getting very popular in the Netherlands. Evelyn I live in the Netherlands also.
Peter
| |
Hi Gosia,
Have you been to any of the memorial sites in Europe? I don't know if I could go to France though...I think I would get emotional seeing all those crosses...dear me. Death isn't something to laugh at.
Hi Peter,
What part, may I ask, of the Netherlands do you come from? And may I visit your website? Band of Brothers certainly gives a good insight of what the soldiers have had to endure. When I first saw it, it was very hard for me to see.
~Evelyn

Hi Evelyn,
Well I live in a part of the Netherlands 100 kilometers north east of Utrecht, it's called Oldenzaal a nice town with a population of 31000. You may visit my website, but it's not in english yet so I think you don't understand it, but the URL is http://members.home.nl/bandofbrothers . I was on one of the memorial sites in Europe. It was the American Cemetry of Margraten in the south of the Netherlands. I visit there the graves of Major Horton and William Dukeman. It was very beautiful and quiet out there and it was also very emotional. If you ever come to the Netherlands you must visit that place.
Peter
| |
I've been also been to Margraten...an emotional place, indeed. But I've also been to many other memorial sites in Europe, from France (Normandy) to Poland (Auschwitz)...a very emotional and terrible place, but it was a place I had to see.
Gosia
| |
Hi Peter,
thats quite a high population
Here in Chesley we have maybe 2000? Its cold here...lots and lots and lots of snow (like usual). Except since I seen the episode on Bastogne...I keep thinking how cold it must have been for the men of E. Company, and for all the men that fought in Bastogne for that matter. Brrr...
Gosia:
Auschwitz...dear me. I hate to ask so much, but do they still have the camp buildings and such? Or were they destroyed? I've seen some photos of Auschwitz...it appears to be tremendous (large)...I've often had to ask why did the Nazis do it? Dear me, I better stop thinking about it...It bothers me very much. Oma has told me some history about razzias in Putten, and many other places too... its recorded that 600 people from Putten were taken to Germany, and only 20 returned.
Evelyn
| |
don't mind asking...some building were destroyed, but there are still a lot of buildings which give you an impression of what that place must have looked like...it always makes me very sad when I think about it.
Do you still have family that lives in Holland?
Gosia
| |
Hi Gosia,
I have family yeah still in Holland, but they are my great aunts, or great uncles. I wish I had closer relatives there...I feel disconnected from my Dutch background
How are you doing today? Lol, its been actually a whole day sine I posted on here. Was working today and couldn't stop thinking about the 2 tapes I saw last night, Yeah I watched the last 4 episodes again...
Evelyn
| |
Hi Evelyn,
I'm fine, thanks. How are you?...sorry, I didn't have any time to post earlier. I always have the same feeling when I watch the episodes again, especially the last one...very emotional.
Gosia.
| |
Hi Gosia,
Yes thats the same with me...I hardly can watch it, the last time I saw the last episode I asked Ben to fast forward that part...or watch it with out me I just couldn't handle it...Everytime it does it to me..I start crying! Very emotional I suppose.
Evelyn
