    Was that the delectable Sue Holderness as the dolly bird? JB

    Review Escape from the Planet of the Apes (1971)

    There was a filmed scene with the apes aboard the ship witnessing the destruction of the earth but for some reason it was excluded from the final print of the film! JB

    Review Babylon 5 (1994)

    JMS wanted Blake actors to appear in B5? Never heard that one but I did hear about an Outer limits cross over that was intended for Babylon 5 but can't remember if it was a follow up to Demon With A Glass Hand or whether it was another episode! B5 is great, Doc, but it can be a bit of a hard...

    I remember that advert for Hang Man!! Wow! Such good memories! Adverts were so entertaining back then before all this modern crap came in! JB

    Review Kolchak: The Night Stalker (1974)

    Strangely enough I caught the last hour of The Night Strangler on Talking Pictures TV last night with Richard Anderson as the murderer, Richard Malcolm! Odd that both Darren McGavin and Anderson were Steve Austin's bosses in The Six Million Dollar Man series! JB

    Review The Tripods (1984)

    I remember reading it back in the nineties I think and was a bit surprised at the lack of Turlough's family or any of the other Trions we saw in POF! The Magician idea was a bit corny too as if any time lord would lower themselves to adopt a title like that!!! JB

    I know but it doesn't sound too bad really unless they interfere with accepted continuity! JB

    Review The Tripods (1984)

    Well maybe, but what use were they if they had no power to stop the Trion aliens? I knew Turlough's people were a bit nasty but please... JB

    Review The Tripods (1984)

    Creepy cover! Much prefer how they were interpreted on television to be honest even if it was at odds with how they were supposed to look as in the book! Plus why did the BBC writers add the Cosgnocs? They were seen as a superior life form above the Tripods and yet not malignant and didn't want...

    Review Series 11 (2018)

    Brilliant! We are being told it's brilliant...so it must be brilliant! Must be! Because we don't have a mind of our own and let us not forget how many times we were told that moffat's stories were brilliant as well! And actually they...they weren't! JB

    Review Blake's 7 (1978)

    I remember buying a sci-fi mag with Brian Croucher and Stephen Grief on the cover and Croucher being interviewed about taking over the role of Travis! There was a pic of him sitting in a chair and pointing a blaster towards a television set which had Grief as Travis on it! Plus there snaps of a...

    Review The Tom Baker Doctor

    My computer was doing the dreaded two posts routine again! Strange isn't it that back in 1981 or 82 was the last time that we were genuinely shocked by the return of an old foe and not just any old foe, only the number two enemy itself-the Cybermen! After that every return was hinted at months...

    Review The Tom Baker Doctor

    I remember buying that edition back in 1980 and stuffing it in my work's bag! Them were the days when Who could only get more exciting (we didn't know the Master was coming back after nearly four years and the Cybermen soon after him after more than seven) although Adric had been thrust upon us...

    Review The Tom Baker Doctor

    I'm not really sure what I made of it at the time to be honest although I somehow knew it had been done to counteract the threat of Buck Rogers on ITV! I did find it great by the end of the series and loved it during the next two Doctors as well even if my favourite theme from the series was the...
