    Controversial The IMDF Conflict Zone!

    I was being largely sarcastic. While I don't think that Brexit will have a great overall result for the UK I doubt it will quite get to the dystopian level.

    Yeah I've got a bit of catch up to do with B7 too.

    Review STAR COPS: LITTLE GREEN MEN AND OTHER MARTIANS - Episode 09

    I thought the character had a lot of potential, but he was very inconsistently written even within individual episodes. There were signs of growth, only to have him revert a few scenes later.

    Review STAR COPS: LITTLE GREEN MEN AND OTHER MARTIANS - Episode 09

    This one was a bit of a mixed bag. Interesting concept with the expansion of the star cops to Mars and the idea of a smuggling ring. But there was a lot going on and it was hard to keep up with all the different things going on. I liked that too - I wasn't keen on her character at first but...

    Perhaps they were predicting Brexit?

    Review STAR COPS: OTHER PEOPLE'S SECRETS - Episode 08

    I really enjoyed this one. The "mystery" of the week was basically insignificant. Just enough to ensure the characters were trapped and given time to reveal more about them. Its good to see the characters continue to develop, although I agree with @Brimfin that Anna was shortchanged in this...

    Controversial The IMDF Conflict Zone!

    I'm still playing catch up with episodes but I might as well get in with some nominations to continue as well. Not sure what's been done before so please ignore any that have already been done. Also I'm not sure about the availability of these so we'd need to do some research before viewing. 1...

    Review STAR COPS: A DOUBLE LIFE - Episode 07

    I have to say, I think this is my favourite episode yet. Great interaction from the main cast. An interesting (if stretching the realistic plausibility of the show) crime. And the plot moved relatively quickly. I wasn't too keen on the addition of Anna Shoun to the team in the last episode, but...

    Review STAR COPS: IN WARM BLOOD - Episode 06

    I'm with you on this. It's an interesting concept of a show but I can see why it never made it past the first season. Those that are interested in the sci-fi elements would have been put off by the slow pace and those that like the British police drama style probably weren't interested in the...

    Review Cinema-Going

    I tend to avoid 3D releases. It's very rare that the 3D process adds anything to the movie (Avatar being one of the few exceptions) and its hard to justify the higher ticket prices. Especially since so few movies are actually filmed in 3D - most being post-production conversions. If a movie is...

    Fun Cricket

    I don't know. Our reputation as a nation of sledgers isn't exactly the reputation we like to believe we have. Also given the hysteria about this incident (although I agree with the sanctions imposed) I'd like to know where all the outrage is around our footballers who beat their girlfriends or...

    Controversial Did Jesus Actually Exist?

    It's certainly possible to believe in a historical Jesus that's different to the religious Jesus. In fact throughout most of the 20th century scholars tried a variety of approaches to try to identify some historical facts about Jesus from the writings about him. These days most scholars...

    News Indiana Jones 5 : IN DEVELOPMENT

    Because a female can't have Jones as a surname? Grace & Catherine Zeta- (amoung many others) might have something to say about that. And I'm pretty sure Indiana isn't a gender specific name. Henry Jnr might be an issue though.

    Controversial Did Jesus Actually Exist?

    I honestly don't have an agenda. As I said, I believe that Jesus existed. But from a scholarly perspective (I work in the library at a Christian theological college) it's not enough to show that Tacitus had access to contemporary documents. To be scholarly rigourous you'd need to demonstrate...

    Review Lost in Space (1998)

    I don't think this is as bad as it's made out to be. I quite liked the direction they took the characters in this, but it was hurt by an overly convouted time-travel screenplay. Leave out the time travel aspect and it could have been a decent movie.

    Review The Time Tunnel Remake (2002)

    This actually sounds like it had the makings of a decent series. It's a shame it didn't proceed. But it probably wouldn't have been any better treated than Firefly was so perhaps it was a blessing. There's definitely room for a modern remake of this series.

    Review Doctor Who (2005)

    Depends on which UNIT dating protocol he's using.

    Review The Day of the Doctor (2013)

    I thought this was a great episode and loved John Hurt's performance. I think it could have been improved by the addition of Paul McGann giving us 4 Doctors (we're still to get any onscreen interaction between more than 3 "real" Doctors). Including the 8th Doctor could have given us the...
