I watched the 1974 remake of Brief Encounter today. It's just as good as the original, only without the warmth, direction, cinematography, Celia Howard, Rachmaninoff, claustrophobia and beauty of the original. 
In one memorable sequence, Sophia Loren gets off a train onto a platform marked "Winchester" and then is seen leaving the station with the word Brockenhurst over the exit.
I've put "Celia Howard" there because my brain now hurts
Oh and John Le Mesurier is in it. In a stand out weird cameo.
I had work to do but felt compelled to watch it to the end, in case I needed to give a witness statement to the appropriate authorities
My favourite bit in this thread is when Jon pops up and confesses he was in the film.
