I had this new at the time and remember there were a decent couple of covers on it… then much later saw the movie!

We so loved making these! Great writing. And Simon Callow’s snoring acting made me cry with laughter.

Only a few days to go until my new painting exhibition opens on 1 September. 22 original paintings inspired by a hundred years of science fiction cinema. Here's one based on a 1970s classic. Do please come along if you can - if not, don't forget to access the virtual exhibition. Please share. Ta!
There are a few things I won’t be sad to miss. Can we just have straightforward Star Trek tales?!
It is …. not their finest hour…
Compelling and emotionally taut TV says @smartartz.bsky.social scifibulletin.com/us-tv/alien-...
Certainly got all the scores - question is whether there was a recording...
I think so, but where it'll be I'm not sure. I'll have a hunt
I arranged them for four part choir and string quartet some years back - The Last Farewell particularly is a beautiful piece of music
This is set to music by Donald Swann in The Road Goes Ever On, a terrific song cycle of Tolkien lyrics. Worth seeking out

Saw it on first release and have the album on vinyl… so yes definitely will watch it all.
My new painting exhibition, BRAVE NEW WORLDS, opens on Monday 1 September. It features 22 paintings inspired by classic science fiction movies from the last hundred years. The whole lot will be available to browse online, but please come along and see them in the flesh if you can. And please repost!
I blame @jonnymorris.bsky.social … found an HD transfer of Give My Regards to Broad Street on YouTube…
The last one to be directed by Ti West!

I think this hiatus may go on longer than people currently expect. I am absolutely sure it will return at some point - even if I don't see it!
And in at least two of those cases we’ve seen evidence of barrel scraping from the creators…
I think all of us who remember that period have been seeing resonances for some time; we had just got through the 25th anniversary then the axe fell.... this time it's the 20th anniversary of the new show. I want there to be a Doctor Who for the next generation...

Any shares of this for algorithmical purposes much-appreciated. I'd love to get these books out of my spare room & into the world before my new novel comes out. I'll sign them all & I really am happy to let people choose what they pay. (Postage to UK is £4.)

Did I mention that I have a painting exhibition coming up? It's at the Exeter Picturehouse from 1 September until 2 November 2025. If you're in the Devon area, please do pop along. Oh, and do tell all your wealthy, art-loving, painting-buying friends... Please share this post. Thanks!
