Thanks, Sid, I'm famed for being old fashioned. I made a gramophone out of a hand drill and used an egg cup with a diaphraham of greaseproof paper as a sound box when I was about 9 years old, and it worked. You had to keep turning at 78 revs per minute and it was great fun. I should also add that all these films were made before I was born - except "Clockwise" - but, yes, old fashioned.
