Cartier directs an empty set with a lot of creativity and the performances are superb. Jospeh Furst deserves to be better remembered than just Professor Zaroff

It’s a powerful piece and one that forces you to think. Excellent drama. Found your article on it as part of my research too. Really informative and good to add context to it all

Tonight a first for the podcast. I watched something I haven’t seen before. Doctor Korczak and the Children has given me a lot to think about.

For the Doctor Who fans we have Joseph Furst, Anton Diffring and a brief but important appearance from Paddy Russell.

She’s not credited at the end of the episode either

If and when there is a missing episode recovery… there might have to be an emergency off brand edition of the podcast.

Or maybe be on brand and look at other recoveries

Unexpected day off. So went back down to London and enjoyed a treasure hunt and pub hunt. Beautiful day as well. Almost spring time

I’ve made my choice for this one and it’s a story I’m excited to revisit

There’s some good stuff in the first series but from the second onwards it becomes something special

For all its little faults… I absolutely adore Star Trek: The Motion Picture

I might have to dig it out later. Or start playing Alien Isolation again. I’ve been inspired

Excellent first episode. Absolutely love Alien and some of the subsequent films. The board game is great and one of the most straightforward coop games I’ve played!

The first episode of Too Hot For TV is out today. Me and @michaelmills.bsky.social discuss the audio adaptation of William Gibson's unmade alien 3 script and the comic crossover Aliens / Vampirella by Corinna Bechko.

Also a couple in the β€œshame they’re in unbroadcastable off air quality” including the 1969 Alan Freeman ep and one with Kenny Everett from 1973

There are also some strong episodes from 1971 and 73. A really good Noel fronted 73 edition but is a poor quality black and white copy

The 3 episodes from Jan/Feb 1970 have a really good mix of performances. The β€œsafe” episode deserves a repeat at least.

I have no issue with the gay Klingon in Star Trek. It’s an interesting, logical and modern story choice.

I do have issue with how boring the storyline is and the total lack of chemistry with Darem.

It’s all very chaste too. Like we’re allowed non hetero relationships as long as they’re β€œsafe”
