NEW TRAILER - Michael Mann's MANHUNTER. THE FINAL CUT. StudioCanal's brand new 4K restoration comes to select US theaters on July 24. "The ultimate immersive version" of the film.

#TrekADay with The Wounded! Where, yes, Chief O'Brien is horrified to learn that his Japanese wife has Japanese food for breakfast. (Well, least what the white American writers think is a Japanese breakfast, I suspect it's as stereotypical as the idea all Irish scoff down corned beef first thing).

Sometimes when I'm lacking inspiration and motivation I'll just doodle a real nothingburger of a logo that I'll actually end up liking but which doesn't seem worth posting. Like this one, which I'm posting anyway.

Your weekend begins with #TalkingPicturesTV

"Wait a minute," shouted Ford Prefect, "wait a minute!" He leapt to his feet and demanded silence. After a while he got it, or at least the best silence he could hope for under the circumstances: the circumstances were that the bagpiper was spontaneously composing a national anthem.

Watching #StarCity and they’ve managed to roll 2 Radar tropes in to 1… a bleeping screen & a display with no plots on it plus the brightness is whacked up to max! Radar screens don’t fracking bleep. And you would burn the fluorescent coating on a Cathode Ray Tube with your brightness that high.

I love this! ❤️

John Wyndham, born today in 1903. Most unpopular with Them That Know when I was growing up, his reputation now seems, thankfully, to be secure. But then, when you think of the sci-fi classics he wrote - Day Of The Triffids, The Kraken Wakes, The Midwich Cuckoos etc - then it darn well should be.

What’s that, Dale? You want to give me an unconditional personal gift of £5million to do whatever I want with? Sure! I just need to fill out a form. If I didn’t declare it that would be silly.

Richard Wilson turned 90 today so why not celebrate it the morning after with a deep dive how he made One Foot in the Grave so special and how Victor was probably in the right! Trust me, this is a really good podcast! rss.com/podcasts/no-...

The family of Justin Richards are very touched by what people said about him this week. For those who wish to donate in his memory, they suggest Read for Good, a charity that works to get children reading, just as Justin strived to do with his writing. readforgood.enthuse.com/JustinRichar...

You have to watch out for flying goats.

Does the fact that the Dr Who books are harder to come by, and reading/re-reading takes a lot longer than watching a TV ep, mean that "received fan wisdom" is a lot more solid and harder to shift?

All right, here goes: in preparation for a book I'm writing, I'm going to try something very ambitious/stupid. I am going to attempt to watch every single American movie produced in the 1980s. In chronological order of release. And to talk about them here in the process.

16 murdered, you fucking evil old tory cunt

I joined Who fandom in the 90s, so I'm old enough to remember seeing scratch videos at conventions. I've never seen (or remember) this one. Good job by everyone who worked on this.

Total Eclipse of the Gallifreyan Hearts How my friends created a "scratch video" of a Bonnie Tyler classic track forty years ago. peteranghelides.wordpress.com/2026/07/09/t... Pictured: Andy Lane and the high-tech equipment employed on the job.

There’s still time to do this week’s #DoctorWho puzzles before the new ones drop tomorrow #CrypticWho crypticwho.com

It's the anniversary I know you all mark - the onscreen death of RSM Erstwhile Benton on 6 July 1976. Here's what I had to say about the novel, where his passing is made much more clear: escapetodanger.net/2021/03/13/a...

This afternoon's Instagram story:

Goodbye to Bonnie Tyler. For Doctor Who fans of a certain vintage, 'Total Eclipse of the Heart' means this (relatively) widely-circulated video: youtu.be/pwZw44D8iW8?...

The Fuwappi twins, who wear Mt. Fuji onesies, are the mascots of Fujimi City (near the mountain).

Marie Claire actually left a prompt from an AI in one of their recent articles. While there’s still some great journalists and publications left, this is utterly shocking. No wonder I’m trying to pivot.

#TrekADay Literally, it's Data's Day. The day in the life episode had gone through all sorts of permutations before settling on the one character who's up 24/7. And it's quite a charming one.

#TrekADay It's The Loss, where Troi is attacked by two dimensional beings. Do your own jokes. More interesting, this redhead who's husband died under Picard's command looks exactly like his fantasy wife in the Nexus. Can't say he doesn't have a type.

#TrekADay It's the Final Mission for Wesley, as Wil Wheaton becomes the latest cast member to leave Star Trek for a movie career that winds up largely being doing guest spots on Star Trek. Thankfully, really. People do think more fondly of the character now, but he's gone from annoying to boring.

❗️ Coming Friday ❗️ It’s the penultimate Nostalgia Tours, as we take a critical look at An Unearthly Child, Meglos, Dark Water / Death in Heaven and The Giggle. Join @markharrison.bsky.social and Harry Palmer as we pick apart these four vital tales….

DAVROS and a squad of Daleks have just invaded another enemy's capital city and swept into their H.Q! People think this is all about conquering planets, but infact it more about Davros just being very NOSEY and wanting to have a poke around other people's houses.

Having failed to interest any papers in this story, I resorted to writing a letter to The Times, like in olden times. So when all that's left to watch is NASCAR racing sponsored by Cheetos, I can at least say I tried. #ITV #Sky #Comcast

“Well, I suppose you’re all wondering why I’ve asked you here today. … Ha! I’ve always wanted to say that.”
