I see there's a new "celebrities" challenge show where I only recognise 1 person in the line-up.

We're rapidly approaching the point where you wouldn't know the "celebrities" if they stood next to you with an ID badge telling you who they are.

It’s #StarTrekDay and from my VHS archive here is an extract from Star Trek Night in 1996 where Shaun Ryder and Kermit from Black Grape discuss the TNG episode Ship in a Bottle.

It’s quite something!

In the 1968 TV Movie “Prescription Murder”*, Lt. Columbo has a 1966 Oldsmobile Toronado.

It’s so weird to see him with a modern American car, instead of a 1959 Peugeot.

*filmed in June/July 1967

Just sitting here watching My Name Is Earl, casually looking up the actors on imdb to see if I've seen any of them elsewhere when.... NO WAY!

This is John DiMaggio, the voice of Bender 'Bending' Rodriguez from Futurama.

When a singer says
“You’ve been a fantastic audience!”
I sometimes feel guilty that I haven’t done enough.

Why did they ever stop doing batteries with a power reading built in? It was genius!

do you have any idea how much you have to piss somebody off to make them change their gauge
#Finland will begin to #Russia - proof its rail network, integrate with EU train infrastructure.

The Finnish government has announced the conversion of its rail network from Russian gauge (1,524 mm) to European standard (1,435 mm).

Sad that I can only watch the short version, but this looks great.

I never had time to watch all of this when it came out, so giving it a whirl now.

If I'd have thought of it before now, I know what I'd have watched for Doctor Who weekend.

I'd have finally seen this.

Mine's a very low-res copy. I don't suppose any of you have it in better quality?
