    Review STAR COPS: AN INSTINCT FOR MURDER - Episode 01

    There was a hint of Hill Street Blues in the way the characters, shout, talk over each others lines etc. I quite like the fact that they never seemed to like each other much. I agree some of the dialogue is too smart arse. Which is better this or Moonbase 3 ? Very very tricky question. Star...

    Review Eureka (2006-2012)

    Still enjoying Eureka, just got to the point of Beverly Barlow returning and planting a device inside Alison's brain to control her. So looking forward to see if this changed reality post the1947 time travel escapade will stick or not.

    Review THE FEATHERED SERPENT (1976) - with Pat Troughton)

    Diane Keen and Brian Deacon as Princess Chimalma and Prince Heumac. If made today Latino actors would be used, but in the good old days we didn't mind top British talent putting on fake tan to play South Americans. It had a great cast.

    A Disturbing Case was an episode written by Mike Pratt ( Randall) himself. Easily the best episode, here with the funny fight scene that is terrific.

    Review The Jam

    Lots of terrific hits, great albums too. Never followed Weller with his Style Council material, but his Jam songs still resonate with meaning in today's mess of a world.

    Review STAR COPS: AN INSTINCT FOR MURDER - Episode 01

    Great first episode. What I really like is that it is very plausible in imagining the near future. If I ever live long enough to go to the moon as a tourist I'd fully expect a Star Cops scenario. Modern technology has not made the show look dated at all. The characters were well thought out and...

    Fun Technical Philosophy -Philosophy and Numbers

    Used to have fun as a kid playing with calculators and seeing what happens when you divide by zero, different machines acted differently depending of course how they were manufactured, but zero is philosophically a problem.

    Fun Technical Philosophy -Philosophy and Numbers

    Do numbers exist? Physically no, in my view, numerals of course exist but numbers are abstract entities that are used to allow us to manage and illustrate talk about quantities. So according to this video I'm a nominalist.
