I am far more than just another TimeLord!":
hi m8. We speek again eh?
It has been bought to my attention by third parties, that I've been
having a pop at the Americans. Please let me point out that it's NOT
the Americans I hate, just your production companies ideas on what
is good Si-fi.
Dull Slow Viewing (seaquest), Star Trek, ST:TNG, Voyager, DS9,
RoboSlop, Highlander, snooze, snor,
Of course, the exception to the rule. B5.
Original in concept for a US production.
It's a shame the other producers and bigwigs wont take the risks JMS
took.
Isn't it nice to be able to talk about DrWho without disecting the
new movie?
Slydoc is my fave, but only because I've read all the NA. His character
is much better developed than he had time to do on screen. Shame realy,
that the BBC stabbed him in the back.  On screen Tom is still tops IMHO!
;-)
PBS? Sorry, but is that like our BBC. No adverts to fund it?
Any way the BBC is a leftwing puppet media for dissadents, anarchists,
and communists in the UK. If you are a working white male who pays his
taxes, and has pride in his country, then the BBC will go out of
it's way to produce programs to p**s you off!
Only once in a while will good stuff sneak through! DrWho was lucky
to get this far before it was pulled off air and replaced with a program
that cost �1.5 of licence fees on " Lessbian rights for single parent
whales in botswana"!!!   :-(((
The films are as follows (but not in order!)
Sharpe's:- Eagle, Gold, Company, Sword, Enemy, Honour, Regiment,Siege
and Rifles.
As for the books, well they are brilliant. An excelent story teller.
I'm just finishing Sharpe's Waterloo. Read it if you can!
Ok m8, chat soon.
cya......
... Look unimportant, the enemy are probably short of ammo too!
