Finished A Spy Like Me today. Enjoyed it even more than Double or Nothing.

Roll on the conclusion in May!

The cover to Bond continuation novel, A Spy Like Me. The third volume in the ‘James Bond is Missing’ trilogy.

It's time for another trip to The Library of Impossible Things.

This time I'm joined by the marvellous @melvinpena.bsky.social for a chat about finding Doctor Who as an adult, how it's long history inspired him and what's the one podcast he's most proud of.

Listen wherever you get your podcasts.

Thank you - that’s a great gif!

A friend at school used to lend me the videos, so I may have seen the noggins popping on there.

I don’t know any of the episode titles but there was one I really enjoyed where the Star Fleet bigwigs were taken over by alien slugs or something, and they have to shoot their heads until they exploded.

A rare bit of excitement in Star Trek.

Useful how-to guide

I believe it was Shakespeare who wrote, “For we, which now behold these present days,
Have eyes to wonder, but lack tongues to praise.”
