Time to get back to it!

Hi there, After my holiday and a week spent either ill or engaged in floor sanding, I now have two clear days free of all other responsibilities. It’s time to get back into Paul Armstrong’s new world. It’s been almost a month since I added to the story and It feels great to have the […]

Rewatching Blake’s 7 – Part 4

Hey everyone. I’m back from holiday and ready to get back into this. Full steam ahead with: Season 1 – Episode 10 – Breakdown We open with Gan having a slight episode and driving the Liberator into a meteor shower. Fortunately Jenna happens along and turns on the autopilot (one wonders why this wasn’t on […]

Filling holes

Have you ever watched a film or read a book and wondered why they didn’t just turn around or go to the police or get on a plane? Have you ever wondered what happened to that character from Act 1 that seems to have disappeared? Plot holes seem to present themselves everywhere you go in […]

Update

Hello, I realise that my post last night was pure vanity. It worked though, so thanks. I’m now over 1000 hits on the website, and past 50 likes on my Facebook page, which at least tells me someone is reading. In fact, it looks as though people from all over are reading which is nice […]

Nearly there

Need one more hit to get to 1000 on my website. Who’s going to click and get me there?

Farewell to Panthers

Rewatching Blake’s 7 – Part 3

Season 1 – Episode 9 Thanks everyone for reading the last two of these. I know I usually do four episodes at a time, but have only got time for one tonight. This one I’m writing as I watch so it might be a bit different. Episode 9 – Project Avalon We start off with […]

Rewatching Blake’s 7 – Part 2

Season 1: Episodes 5-8 I must admit I watched episode 5, “The Web”, at the same time that I was writing my article about the previous four episodes. As such, I didn’t pay much attention, except to the flaky Ewoks that were dancing around the screen. My view as I was half watching was that […]

Today I invented a planet. I’m celebrating.

I realised the great power of fiction today in the library. I’ve invented characters and situations and interactions before, but I must say that I’ve never brought something like this into being. It’s an odd feeling, pride mixed with mischief, like I’ve done something outrageous. There are five exoplanets orbiting Tau Ceti in the constellation […]

Rewatching Blake’s 7

Season 1 – Episodes 1-4 Blake’s 7 is a British Science Fiction show originally broadcast between 1978 and 1981. I’m too young to remember it the first time around and although I know I saw some episodes, I wasn’t old enough to know what was going on. I watched the whole series a few years […]
