Call them cunts and tell them they get nothing. Spit in their stupid faces. Put extra Asians in the Christmas adverts and explicitly say you're doing it to fuck them off. Tell them *no* for once Jesus actual Christ lads. Not "this is unworkable" or "this is expensive". Just no.

@garybrannan.bsky.social Are you reading the Brian Clemens archive features in SFX? Last month they had his idea for a Who episode and this month they’ve featured his ideas for Bond projects. Seems like the sort of thing that would be up your street!

Turns out at least 350 people are as nerdy as I am!
For the uninitiated, last night I found 29 behind the scenes photos from the first Highlander film. I posted this on the Highlander Heart Facebook group and the likes/joyful comments just keep pouring in!

Scumbag behaviour from Showmasters here.
Showmasters (London Film Comic Con) have posted a video of trying to get Craig Charles out of his room (with his room number showing) because he called in ill to the event and they don't trust him to not be hungover and letting people down.
BLOODY HELL. So much for caring for his well-being.

Calling time on the current painting (since it’s blocking me from doing other things and I can’t be arsed anymore). Having said that, I’m pretty pleased with the way Thunderbird 2 came out.

@davidbrunt.bsky.social Does this affect the Production Diary books at all?
The BBC’s new policy for the Written Archive Centre in Caversham is to allow access only to files that have already been vetted, making it impossible to consult new material crucial to original research — see here: www.bbc.co.uk/archiveservi...
