I’ve always been a horror fan and within that genre is a niche area about creepy dolls. One of my favourite episodes of the old Black and White show The Twilight Zone features Talking Tina and the 1980’s saw Chucky who was possessed by an ancient evil demon. More recently Annabelle has strutted her stuff… Continue reading M3gan Film Review

My New Doctor Who Tour
My Doctor Who tour that I planned out a few weeks ago was a big success so I have decided to create a new tour based upon it that visits various places across London to important filming locations of New Who and iconic spots from the Classic show also. As the Daleks and Cybermen… Continue reading My New Doctor Who Tour
Going in search of Daleks in the backstreets of London
I noticed a few weeks ago the the old 1960’s Doctor Who films with Peter Cushing as the Doctor have been re-mastered in 4k for a re-release. I only mention it as one of the things that I always thought funny in one of those films is when the Daleks invade Britain and the Doctor… Continue reading Going in search of Daleks in the backstreets of London
Star Trek Discovery Review
It’s been 12 years since the last new Star Trek television episode was aired so it is with much excitement that I got my Netflix free month offer underway only to watch Star Trek: Discovery which is no doubt what they hoped for.

Star Trek Beyond Review (Mild Spoilers)
The original Star Trek show was lauded for its starting point of putting a positive vision of the future in the otherwise gloomy world of the late 1960’s. Today, the world in some ways is under more threat than ever. War and dictatorship across the Middle-East, increasingly assertive China and dictatorial Russia, repeated acts terrorism… Continue reading Star Trek Beyond Review (Mild Spoilers)
Star Wars: The Force Awakens Review (No blasters, no bla… I mean spoilers)
I distinctly remember going to see the very first Star Wars film all the way back in 1977. It was the first time I had ever gone to The Pictures and I was a little less than 3 and a half years old. I remember being amazed by the special effects even then and the… Continue reading Star Wars: The Force Awakens Review (No blasters, no bla… I mean spoilers)
Happy Back To The Future Day!
There are two ways to waste our lives on this planet. One is the way that some keep getting excited for the next Apocalypse, seemingly a little pointless in my mind and I can say that having survived several hundred in my life thus far, in fact there is another due today also. Well… Continue reading Happy Back To The Future Day!
Remembering Leonard Nimoy and Mr. Spock
I was in Portugal on Friday when I heard the sad news of the death of Leonard Nimoy and whilst very saddened was not entirely surprised given his recent health problems. I shouldn’t have been surprised that his death was featured quite heavily on Portuguese television and made the front pages of their newspapers on… Continue reading Remembering Leonard Nimoy and Mr. Spock
Writing For Television – My first TV script from 1996!
Yesterday whilst looking for something else on the internet, I came across a 20 year-old website that I had created. It’s no longer live but had been archived away somewhere and I was amazed to find my very first television manuscript on the site. This was rather fortuitous as the original files are on computers… Continue reading Writing For Television – My first TV script from 1996!
