All set to serve up the second portion of our freaky Greeky treat-y… Don’s gone but for how long? Will un-Leela appear at the Fringe? Will Peter Egan ever have to learn a line? Will someone shove the bouzouki player’s instrument in the one place in the Aegean where the sun don’t shine? Will Demis Roussos get a walk-on role and cause an eclipse? Will we meet a donkey called Hotay? Will M’dea make Jason king and will she actually recognise Michael Sheard? Will OSP learn a third word of Greek, or a second word of English? Will AA turn up on time twice in a row – bearing in mind once in a row set some sort of record? Will Cygnus Bouzouki squeeze yet more mileage out of his, frankly, masterful Sheard on/Sheard off joke? Will Scarlet? Will Smith? Will.i.am? Will and testament? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dTvH6...TvH6c66dsM |

Although his 'humour' might be questionable, one cannot fault CB's enthusiasm. Looking forward to the next installment! Hjat!

Should have added that, sadly, ep 2 isn't called The Man in the Bowler Hjat! after all. Its much more pedestrian title is A Time Out of Mind. But it features someone who actually was in Doctor Who, bolstering the tenuous sci-fi credentials of this rewatch. The same bloke played opposite Ingrid Pitt in an episode of 'Thriller'. I'm sure he had a couple of fond memories of that. |

I'd watch almost anything if there was a chance of watching you and Cee Beebies facing off at each other, quips wise.

Talking of which, anyone up for this sometime in December: https://archive.org/details/flash-gor...139b-0d-67 I'm busy that night. Seriously, though, Teaty, that's a capital idea. I don't care what M'dea, OSP, AA and Taiellin say about you when you're not looking - you're definitely an asset to this forum. I just hope the film doesn't give either me or the Bee Gees the heebee-jeebies. |

"Flash, Flash, I love you, but we only have 14 hours to save the Earth" "What do you mean Flash Gordon approaching. Open fire - all weapons. Send Rocket Ajax [or something like that] to bring back his body" I can also sing (or as well as I can 'sing' ) The Hero, which is over the end titles

Do I detect AA's here on time for the second week in a row? If she makes it a hat trick next week she gets to keep the trophy. Edit: Nope. Clearly a mirage. |

Think I might need some Dandelion & Burdock to wash it down. Never come across walnuts in dark chocolate before. "You're not sulking, I hope?"
