That's a terrific Sea Devil

I find it impossible to imagine getting from Newbury to the tank top section in C&A in Reading Town centre in 35 minutes.

It's a bit odd Koo Koo has never found its way to CD again, as its by far her best solo record. Chrome and Oasis are very good.

It’s a wrap.

In lieu of the usual type of monograph conclusion, herewith a few general thanks, notes, and a touch of gap-filling.

Same here. Its still a very enjoyable watch.

I highly recommend driving around the Lake District listening to this (as i was a week or two ago and for many a year). It's mood fits the scenery, especially - naturally - Northern Sky.

arrival of Rem, the king of comedy. The chasing Sandmen seem to cover ground very quickly and I began to wonder at one point that with the very thin footwear they had on, it must have been hard going on their feet.
Overall very enjoyable - 13 more explosive episodes to watch.

not a robot, they escape. The group of three are established.
The dialogue is terrible, there's some iffy acting and it's clear the outside bits were filmed just over the studios wall somewhere in California. It's good fun and the three leads are quite good, with a bit of humour added with the

encounter with some bad people on horses who still wear their helmets and visors to eat their supper, then finally find themselves in Mountain City, which turns out to be run by robots, who want to tend to their every need.
Logan and Jessica don't fancy that, so with the help of Rem, an android

Started watching this. Not seen it since a young lad. The memory does cheat a bit.

The first episode is a bumper 75 minutes, covering Logan and Jessica's escape, finding a hovercraft type vehicle in the ruins of Washington, an encounter with some human survivors in an underground bunker, another

Thorn in my Side by the Eurythmics. Sigh. The great Clem Burke looking as cool as ever...
What a song.

Great track. Super version on (I think) Tourfilm video. One of REMs many peak eras.

I wish the Oxford Mail would sort out their appalling website. Loads of pop ups make it hard to navigate. Worse, the 'story' is often not even there.

Sad news about Stephen Luscombe of Blancmange. They were a very classy duo and did a host of excellent songs. Sadly Stephen had to leave after Blanc Burn in 2011. Condolences to his family, friends and Neil Arthur.

I enjoy the 'interludes' between the comic strips. They offer a nice balance and I always learn something.

Kind of cool this is announced two days before the 40th anniversary of one of Husker Du's most celebrated live shows which to date has found its way to about 20 different bootlegs - 'Lynndales Burning', 1st Ave, 28/08/85. Even better recordings on this - exciting.

I have in the back of my mind an idea to keep the main 'range' going until they finish, and revisit others somehow/sometime.

My ambition is to do a new version of the Tom Baker Annual! It would be such a thrill to do.

6 Annedroid Invasion
5 Brain of Morbius
4 Seeds of Doom
3 Planet of Evil
2 Pyramids of Mars
1 Terror of the Zygons

Top 3 are just exceptional. Even Planet of Evil! I can't believe it was so long ago.

I keep saying it, but The World is a masterpiece. These albums are terrific. Looking forward to the box set.
