  1. Maybe not, but Marco Polo was the dog's bollocks. They could also animate The Daleks' Master Plan.
  2. The Macra Terror (animated) Another good story, well played out. Starting to appreciate the second doctor a bit more. I quite enjoyed it, though it was animated in colour. Somehow that felt wrong. Also, why animate this one before, say, Marco Polo?
  3. It's back, and still enjoyable. A Voyager crossover(ish) without any Voyager cast. Not as bad as I feared.
  4. From the Heil, multiple compo face action. Furious parents slam council for putting up 2ft 6ins 'eyesore' bollards overnight to stop them 'driving on the pavement to drop off children' - after just one person complained But my favourite from this story is the quote that goes with this one.
  5. Triple Troughton! Hoots, Mon! I mean The Highlanders Not bad. Patrick Troughton must have been having a laugh with all the accents and characters. Surprising to me how heavy the English Bad / Scots Good narrative was, considering this was mid 60s BBC TV. Jamie is on board now. The Underwater Menace This could have been a Bond script. Hidden underwater lab with maniac scientist in charge. Not bad at all, this one. The Moonbase A classic. A stone cold classic. Fair to say nothing made after 1979 in the original run is anywhere near this. A mix of animated and live action, wonderfully made. This is the only time, for me, that cybermen have been even remotely menacing. Loved this one.
  6. Streaming services having different seasons of shows on different platforms.
  7. I've had a stinking cold* the last few days. Coughing, sneezing, sore head and throat. Woke up this morning feeling great. I have successfully passed it on to my wife and kids who are suffering this morning. * might be the new covid strain. A couple of folk at work tested themselves and were positive.
  8. No way. I'm not accepting Mike Yarwood. I've heard of the Mandela Effect but this is ridiculous. I remember seeing a news report about his death in the late 90s. Trump was right. It's all fake news.
  9. Power of the Daleks [animated] Fantastic. I'm not a big fan of Dalek stories generally, I find them a touch dull, but this was really good. Used all 6 episodes well, building up the tension. I hope there are more of this quality to come, this was really enjoyable. The only down side for me was Ben whinging a bit in the first 3 episodes.
  10. When they bring back Big Brother, they should get all the P&B singletons in the house together.
  11. Yup. "Parents go to war with school uniform: Fury over 'overly strict' policies that force pupils to wear shoes that give them blisters, tights in the heat and expensive branded clothing"
  12. Yes - I think when we saw some of the stuff being produced last year it gave us all a scare. It's still ropey at the moment but in 5 years?
  13. Scott knows he would get a fucking doing. He has heard some disciplinary hearings, when we are both at home and I'm doing one on Teams.
  14. The show is getting savaged in the Graunaid https://www.theguardian.com/tv-and-radio/2023/sep/07/oh-dear-george-lucas-why-the-star-wars-universe-is-going-from-bad-to-worse
