Watching #OnlyConnect
It just goes to show how forgettable the dross of RTD2 Doctor Who was that it barely even registered with me what Ncuti's companion's surname was.

Happy 62nd birthday to Doctor Who
I first encountered you in 1982.
I first watched regularly in 1988.
I became a fan in 91.
I hope very soon that you become as watchable as you last were on 28/11/15.

Watching Rentaghost Xmas Special for one specific reason. Curiosity.
I have a v complicated relationship with it.
For years, as a 4-7 year old, I would catch the end credits (family probably watching something else) and be fascinated by the theme tune.
It seemed exotic, fun and special.

At some point, all synth bands discover what an arpeggiator is...and, depending on if it arpeggiates up or down, their stuff gets either poppier or gothier.

The title sequence created by US networks to pad it out to 2 hrs is a psychedelic thing o' strange, mentalistic beauty.

Las Vegas is the worst of the two US #F1 circuits, which are both the two worst circuits in the calendar... apart from the Saudi and Qatar circuits which are joint worst with the US circuits.

I really wish we had more stop motion like Harryhausen than CG, this still look epic 60 years on.
Jason and the Argonauts (1963). Stop motion effects by Ray Harryhausen. Brilliant creepy score by Bernard Herrmann
