Thanks, Gavin! I've been trying to put this theory forward on the Trek BBS as well with limited success! A lot of people quite like it too and agree with me but a few people get a bit nasty and adhere to any little thing put forward by the executives on the series! JB

The continuity is an obvious thorn in our sides but what if this isn't the TOS universe, reality or whatever or even perhaps the timeline that was affected by ENTs Temporal Cold War? Everything being altered to the way it should have been? Including the first JJ Abrams Trek film too? JB

Yes I still have this rascal somewhere in the attic! JB

Jacqueline Scott actually appeared in two episodes of the television series! The Good Seeds and as Dr.Kira in The Surgeon! JB

Benny any given day over rubbish like Elton! JB

The Space 1999 comic strip was well drawn at least when they made it in black and white! The guy who did the colour stuff seem to let his imagination run riot as I remember! JB

I remember collecting these for a while at least in 1978 or 79 (I had bought the early editions from number one but gave up in 72 I believe) but I can't say I was a fan of the BSG comic strip and I thought it was really strange that BSG hadn't even appeared on television here in the UK at the...

I noticed that too! Five seasons of The Six Million Dollar Man and three of the Bionic Woman and of course I had two and later three ITV channels to watch it on at the time! JB

Strange that a horror film made it to the cover of the junior TV Times, but then again Monster Club wasn't really that horrific and I think if I remember correctly it was available for younger people to watch in the cinema as well wasn't it? JB

Strange isn't it how Julian Glover and his wife Isla Blair seem to turn up in television shows a few episodes apart or even in together? They appeared together in an episode of Dixon of Dock Green in 1975 but they were both in Space 1999s first series and Blakes 7 as well! Isla in Duel and...

The comments made by Travis at the beginning of the episode must obviously be a mistake especially once you see the finale to the second series, Star One! In that episode it is revealed just as it is in Star Trek TOS that the Federation occupies a small area of the Milky Way and the nearest...

Well what else would there be to keep us in here if they hadn't? :emoji_wink: JB

Why would they want to do another series in the first place if the last one flopped so heavily? Can Bacon spare the time from his 'silly' but lucrative commercials for ITV? JB

Coincidence is just another phase of the Mandela effect, Doc! :emoji_wink: JB

Can't believe you missed this one out Doc! Peter Cushing as the old man in the pawn shop and the people that 'buy' his collectibles! The ones that cheat him seem to die a horrible death while the one character that is honest survives his ordeal! Stories include the Blue Door, where a room...

Torture Garden was the second of Amicus's horror stories and the Jack Palance/Peter Cushing one about the man who collected Poe used to creep me out for years! The actors who never aged plus Balthazar the cat (apparently based on a story about a demon cat called Enoch) who ate human heads...

Asylum is mostly memorable for Geoffrey Bayldon's mad laughing at the end and the reveal of Dr.Starr's real identity! Herbert Lom was Byron, the mad man who created small puppet versions of people he knew controlled by his will to murder those who defied him! Sylvia sims was murdered by her...

Tales From The Crypt 1972, with the great Peter Cushing as Arthur Grimsdyke, the poor old man who is forced to take his own life after secret abuse from his neighbour played by Robin Philips! The Monkey's Paw and the other stories were good as well! This one is available as a DVD by Final Cut...

Yes I have the Vipco 4:3 version but I bought a widescreen version back in late 2016 by Final Cut Entertainment which retains the missing bits like the blood tap and John Witty's severed hands! Even though Peter Cushing isn't in this one I think it's one of Amicus's best films! JB

Yeah I was a big Christopher Lee Dracula fan back in the early eighties and Pertwee's remarks about Lugosi being better than this new fella gnawed at me for years! Nowadays of course I think we all know that Christopher lee was a very pompous actor and believed his own hype! JB
