Patrick Swayze rises again

Whatever happened to Patrick Swayze? Once upon a time in the ‘80s you couldn’t move for Patrick Swayzes coming out at you from Athena posters and film trailers. But now he’s all but disappeared. Except for good old Channel 5. They appear to have resurrected him from the dead – just like in Ghost.

But Bill and I can’t work out whether it’s a Patrick Swayze season or an ‘80s season that is currently gripping Channel 5. It's so hard to tell - there were few films that came out in that period that didn't feature Patrick Swayze strutting his stuff, so the two roll into one. Except for Desperately Seeking Susan - now that was quality and he didn't get anywhere near that.

Ho hum – whichever it is, I guess Patrick must be happy, because life seems to have been a bit quiet for him these past few years, and Channel 5 must be bringing in the royalties for him again.

...And I hate to admit it, but I was secretly pleased when I saw the Dirty Dancing soundtrack being advertised again - I missed it first time round, and before now have always been too worried about looking uncool if I bought it. But now I'm old and untrendy I don't care, so I've been dropping heavy hints to Bill that he can disturb the moths and get that one for me. I know there was a lot of rubbish on the film (not least of all Mr Swayze's acting), but there were some good old originals too.

...How would you call your baby home?

Still doesn't explain what happened to Patrick. Any ideas..?

OK, Here's a clue...
