In France they do things differently. When they imported Dallas they didn't like the theme tune so they changed it for a SUNG version of their own:

Having reviewed the Amstrad Penpad beforehand, pity no mention was made of how it beat the Newton to market.

The Newton cost $100 million to develop. One suspects Amstrad did the Penpad for a fraction of that, which makes it all the more hilarious when you consider just how little extra Apple got for their money.

I can waste hours watching 'Horrible Histories' clips. Here's their take on Rosa Parks.

The early 90's was a shit time to be a Doctor Who fan. The show was on hiatus, and you might as well have been a leper.

But some fans had access to money and video equipment. So why not make something like Doctor Who, but not mentioning Doctor Who so they didn't get sued. But they could hire lots of Doctor Who actors. Yeah, that'll be great. Let's get all the Doctor's who are alive (apart from Tom).

It's hard to know where to begin. Well, I can begin at the stunt casting of 4 Doctor's and a companion and the obvious fanwank of having a Doctor getting jiggy with his companion (6th and Peri to be precise). Pertwee is phoning it in.

Watch out for Nicholas Briggs who does he Dalek voices for the new series.

It's awful, but still not as bad as Downtime. In fact there are loads of these produced in the 90's and many of them were distributed in mainstream shops. I bought Downtime in Woolworths. It's shit:

Did you think those were synths on "I'm Not In Love" by 10cc? Wrong, they are loops of human voices layered many many times. You can hear how they layer them up at the start as the tapes spin up.

In life it is important to know your left from your right. Note the same guy makes the mistake twice. Once with no consequence, once with fatal consequence:

Do you like horror films? Do you like Vincent Price? Do you like Kenny Everett? Well.....

NB, embed in spoiler tags as the freeze frame may be considered mildly NSFW.

You may have seen this before but this is a documentary where Alan Whicker goes to Hati and interviews Papa Doc, the countries dictator.

And astonishing documentary and seems oddly modern considering it was made in 1969. Made by Yorkshire television not the BBC. That's right, ITV used to produce this stuff!

Either hilarious or in very poor taste (or possibly both) depending on your personal morals :

I'll admit I spurted my coffee out of my nose when I first watched it but then felt a tad guilty afterwards....

Yeah! I saw this after popping on Youtube and searching for some Whicker action. True-fax, my late Grand-uncle Frank looked and dressed exactly like Alan Whicker.

Anyway, it's a superb watch. Biting, gripping and with balls of brass. ITV, why have you given up and become so utterly loathsome?

Mindfuck! At the height of his A-Team pomp, Anglia TV ask George Peppard to appear in Tales Of The Unexpected. He accepts!

Quote:

Fred Pearson, a Vietnam veteran is a broken man after years of punishment from his sergeant. One day, he walks into a bar and sees the sergeant, still very much the arrogant bully he always was.

Sadly it wasn't shot at Anglia in Norwich but in the USA. It's 16mm, rather badly lit and is shot with little flair. Looks crap compared to what we were seeing Peppard in every Saturday night.
