I really enjoyed doing this interview …
It was great to get asked to be interviewed by Marc at Disquiet. It’s a site that I’ve read for a very long time and it’s awesome to be interviewed there.
Big Finish releases the latest episode of Torchwood: Forgotten Lives
Great to see Eve Myles and Kai Owen back in their characters. I’m looking forward to hearing this story soon.
After listening to Survivors series 3
I have to say it was another good series. It moved the story on in a similar but slightly different direction to what’s gone before. I like that. If I have any complaints at all, and really, I don’t, it’s that I would’ve wanted something just a little more dramatic. It was good though.
I really like what Big Finish have done with it. Not just because I like the fact that Survivors is still going because of them, but because of the way they’ve put it together, keeping the feel of the original, and even some of the original cast, but expanding it and taking it in new and yet consistent directions.
I won’t give any spoilers though.
A little reminder, it’s Movember
Here we are, Movember is upon us, and stuff is growing! If you’re interested in seeing my Movember page it’s here, please do take a look. I plan to add a lot of stuff to it over the whole month of Movember, so you should always find something new there.
If you can support me with a donation I’d really appreciate it.
Science Museum: Ada Lovelace
I was quite surprised that it was actually quite a small exhibition for a character as important as Ada Lovelace. Even so, it was a nice little exhibition with some interesting facts. I’m sure they could’ve found more, I’m sure they could’ve got hold of more stuff about her, but anyway, I’m glad that they at least had an exhibition about her. That’s something.
Survivors Series 3 Covers
I really like the cover art for Survivors, so I thought I’d share these from the latest, series 3.
Watching V for Vendetta
As it is Guy Fawkes night it is my tradition to watch V for Vendetta, which I think was an excellent film. It had a solid message and a really engaging story. I find that every time I watch it I find something new, or understand it just a little more, and I like that. Each time I also want to go deeper into the story.
Last year I read the original book, which is also excellent. So I might read it again.
Guy Fawkes night
I think it’s important to remember that this isn’t just fireworks night, as so many people seem to have fallen into calling it, but it is in fact the day when we celebrate Guy Fawkes and what he stood for. It is Guy Fawkes night
I think it’s important to point out, and important to remember.
Half Moon Putney: Never the Bride
Whilst this type of band / music isn’t my usual cup of tea, I have to say it was a great show, and, whilst I probably wouldn’t run out and buy a CD of the music, I did enjoy it.
