King Henry II 👑
@icarfaem.bsky.social
21st King of England (1154-1189).
Me and my mate Thomas Becket, having a good time putting things right that once went wrong. Until he called me Tetchy. TETCHY? I'LL SHOW HIM TETCHY.

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

Woah. How has it taken me so long to realise that N*g*l F*r*g* is the Enoch Powell of our time?

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.

Just minding my own business, watching some old tv and... i know that name.

Being 1957, the schoolteachers, or "masters", are wearing gowns to class.

But the headmaster is wearing an "M. A. hood" which is the fabric draped around the back.

"He stuffed a spare collar into his pocket and hurried out of the flat."

1957 is a foreign country. They do things differently there.

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

Less than a month until Christmas,
which means I’m happy to report that
Lidl has the Lebkuchen in!

"Hello! Goodbye! It's good, isn't it?!"

And so another Doctor Who Day ends.

Ah. Comedy. 😑

For context, this was broadcast between episodes 4 and 5 of The Dalek Master Plan.

So good!
November 23, 2025 at 9:55 PM
Sad that I can only watch the short version, but this looks great.
November 23, 2025 at 9:50 PM
Never thought i'd be excited to see The Space Pirates!
November 23, 2025 at 7:48 PM
It even has Sentreal!
November 23, 2025 at 7:39 PM
it's VERY good.

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

It's always weird when someone famous is into the same thing that I am.

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?

He even gets his name in the opening credits of OHMSS. A film where he has a considerable part as Bond's colleague.

I come in peace.
