Re: [B7L] Top Ten

Alison: > One finally notes that male cultural commentators like Kim Newman and Paul > Morley seem to have cottoned on to the whole subtext thingy, and that clips > were chosen accordingly. Mmm. Not sure about their overall choice of talking heads. On the one hand, Jayne Dearsley from SFX countering the image that all sf fans are speccy twats; on the other, M.J. Simpson, who said some interesting and intelligent stuff, but was swamped by his delivery. Sigh. Mind you, I've come to the conclusion that Kim Newman should be in print or on radio, but never on tv until he gets to a %$£& barber's. I was disappointed by the lack of "here's what didn't make it into the top ten" segments that they sometimes include, too. Anyone got the actual list, for discussion purposes? As I recall: Space: 1999 The Tomorrow People Buck Rogers in the 25th Century Sapphire and Steel Blake's 7 Thunderbirds Red Dwarf Doctor Who Star Trek Um, and one more. Which wasn't the Clangers. Bastards. steve

Gareth's play
by Mac4781＠aol.com 15 Oct '01

There's a review of Gareth's play, "Rutherford and Son," in this week's issue of THE STAGE. It's not included in the part of the paper they have on line, so I've not seen it and can only report that it's listed under "plays reviewed this week." Carol

Jacqui asked: >Following on from the recent discussion - imagine B7 if, after Mission to Destiny they had decided to become detectives - what sort of adventures would they have had?< Weird ones :-) A bit like S3 probably. Now I get visions of Tarrant arguing that they should follow the murderer who escaped through the black hole. Could have made a nice alternative for Dawn of the Gods. Marian
