Blake’s 7, from the beginning

I just had to see the whole of Blake’s 7 again. I don’t know why, I just got it into my head that I really wanted to see it all again. So I’ve started right from episode 1 and my plan is to work my way through the lot.

After that I might even go on to listen to some of the newer Big Finish CD stories.

Ultravox – Brilliant

When I heard that Ultravox had a new album coming out I was relatively excited. I’ve always liked them, but perhaps their later albums not so much. Anyway, I thought I’d give this new one a try out, and I listened to it twice, or maybe three times, but overall, it really didn’t work for me, which was a shame.

Having said that, one track really stood out for me. It’s called ‘Rise’, and I’ve been playing it over and over. It stood out from the rest of the album by a long way, and I think it’s a great.

Technology will save us

Technology will save us is a great little tech company who make kits and things and do talks as well. I got this badge from an event I went to. They’re lovely and so passionate about what they do.

Star Trek: A piece of the action

One of my all time favourite episodes, it’s excellent and very unusual for Star Trek, but lots of fun. I’m really enjoying the re-runs of Star Trek. Apart from seeing lots of episodes that I love there’s also quite a few that I’ve never seen, or at least that I can’t remember.

Ironclad

This was a strange film, at once very violent and also very slow. It had a very promising cast though and a story that wasn’t dull on the face of it, but even with all that it just didn’t seem to go anywhere really. Which seemed to be a shame.
