The decline and fall of British Sci-fi
@britishsci-fi.bsky.social
Recovering Star Trek fan, YouTuber, self deluded optimist with the hardest working mouth in the galaxy.
Ghostbusters II was never about the slime.
It was about belief, burnout, and the moment the 1980s finally gave up the ghost.

My Halloween special premieres at 5PM (UK) — a deep dive into one of the most misunderstood sequels ever made.

Come for the ghosts. Stay for the existential crisis.

🚀 Thunderbirds are 60.

Tomorrow at 18:15 we’re taking Zero X off the runway.
Puppets. Rockets. Explosions.
And maybe… one of the most underrated British sci-fi films of the 60s.

👀 You might be surprised how good this one really is.

Let’s not forget the Merkur XR4Ti cameo. For years I thought that was a Sierra Cosworth.

Recording tonight: my RoboCop deep dive.
It’s about PTSD, trauma, and what it really means to piece yourself back together after being shattered.

🟥 TOTAL RECALL drops Thursday.
Not what you think.
Or maybe it is.
That’s the test.

Bold take. Big brain.
One confused cockney hooligan.

Short one this week.
But sometimes, the shorter it is, the sharper the blade.
This isn’t just about monsters in domes or soldiers with blank stares—this is about what we let happen in the name of necessity.
Quatermass II is hard to interpret. That’s the point.
New video out Thursday 1900uk

A 1980 kids’ show on ITV.
A father builds a fortress.
A biker feeds the hungry.
The system breaks.

Noah’s Castle is a civilisation collapsing in slow motion.

Video drops Thursday, 19:00 BST.

The Toxic Avenger is almost here to wreck your timeline!

This ain’t your mum’s superhero flick — it’s 80s splatterpunk at its finest.

Full deep dive coming soon on The Decline and Fall of British Sci-Fi!

Stay toxic, rebels.

My only issue with NAD is its clinical sound compared to my need for something a bit punchy up in the mid to high range. Am seriously considering one of these pared with a pair of ditton 44’s.
