This is going to be the first of a series of posts I’m going to do, ranking my favourite episodes of my favourite TV shows, like I did with Star trek about 18 months ago. As it’s Christmas (or it was when I started this post), I decided to start with Angel. Angel ran for […]
Read more "Top 10 Angel episodes"Hello all, This is my first Monday Music of the new year and I’m carrying on with my plan to cover one of my favourite bands every week. I started with Canada’s Cowboy Junkies to close out last year. Now, I’ll make the not so distant journey to Idaho, USA, the birthplace of another of […]
Read more "Monday Music 1 – 2018"So, I’ve had the game a week now. I’ve dug around a bit and I’m really enjoying it so far. That’s not to say that I haven’t noticed a few things that are a little similar to old ground. On the whole, though, loading it up feels like putting on your favourite pair of comfortable […]
Read more "The Andromeda Experience – 2"Hi All, I’ve been exceptionally quiet over the past week or so due to Christmas happening. I’ve got a whole load of posts lined up that I want to do and my Taste of Cinema article that I haven’t even started yet, plus some things I want to do to THE book and an extra […]
Read more "The Andromeda Experience – 1"I’ve decided to go a different way with these posts for a few weeks. Instead of picking some music at random, I’m going to dedicate each week to one of my favourite bands or singers. I’ll post a couple of links to some of their songs, tell you a bit about where I first heard […]
Read more "Monday Music 31 – 2017"Caught this one on Sky last night and I have to say, me and Mrs A thoroughly enjoyed it. It was written by the same guys (Paul Wernick and Rhett Reese) who wrote Deadpool and Zombieland so I was expecting something well-paced and with little padding. It has a 15 certificate and is well-deserving of that, if not […]
Read more "Movie Review – Life (2017)"Just came across this news article from the London Evening Standard. It seems there is an object heading through our solar system that could just be a spaceship from outside our galaxy. It’s more likely to be a big, cigar shaped asteroid but hey, the possibility is there. It’s called Oumuamua (which means ‘scout’) and […]
Read more "Is there something coming?"Hi everyone, Just a quick update. After months without word, I’ve finally got another assignment from Taste of Cinema. I’m doing the 30 Most Tense Moments in Cinema history. Should be done in a couple of weeks in time for Christmas. I’ve got a list of 38 at the minute so I have to trim […]
Read more "New ‘Taste of Cinema’ article coming soon"We’re well into December and I’m starting to feel a little Christmassy. Also, there’s snow on the ground here in London. So, two different pieces of music for the week; one for each of those things. First, the theme music from one of my favourite Christmas films. It’s waiting on the shelf for nearer the […]
Read more "Monday Music 30 – 2017"Haven’t written anything properly for over a week as I’ve been struggling with a nasty case of sinusitis. Feels good to be back on it, communicating once again. I’ve been thinking about my favourite Doctor Who stories. Once again, I’ll preface this by saying that it isn’t meant to be a ‘best of all time’ list […]
Read more "15 Great Doctor Who Stories"Books, games, music, and life — filtered through the mind of a writer, drummer, and philosopher who thinks too deeply about all of it. If it moves something in your chest, I'm interested.
