Exclusive SPV picture!

Yet another exclusive SPV picture for you here – sent in Joel Miles-Board. It’s a sneak peak at another SPV … I think Orange have gone off the rails a bit with this design though. ;) Ok.. I’m joking… It’s the SPV from Captain Scarlet – that classic Gerry Anderson puppet show (by the way, you can download Captain Scarlet… Read more →

Worlds Wildest…

Is there anyone else out there who thinks that Sheriff John Bunnell from Worlds Wildest Police Videos is a bit of a fruit-loop ?? And to think he used to be a Sheriff… Can you imagine him stopping you ? “Hi, I’m Sheriff John Bunnell – I saw you blast down the break-down lane in your Chevvy cruiser, possibly DUI… Read more →

Rapture TV !

So here I am – stuck at home on a saturday night. My missus is on a night flight (she’s a stewardess) so I’m unfortunately stuck at home. Thanks to channel 265 on Sky, plus the Slinky night (right)… life ain’t too bad. :) What’s on 265 ? Well, here in the UK we’ve now got Digital TV everywhere –… Read more →

After dishing out several thousand lawsuits, they’re now targetting a poor little 12-year-old girl called Brianna LaHara, from the Uppper East Side of NYC. She has so far received 261 lawsuits from the RIAA, and says, “I got really scared. My stomach is… Read more →

Totally unrelated…

There’s a soap on TV here in the UK called “Brookside” – it was very popular at one time, and people watched it in their millions. Now, however – it has been pushed into a late-night slot as viewing figures drop. However, Channel 4 have a teen-soap called “Hollyoaks” – which is going from strength to strength. The programme features… Read more →
