    Conservation of Mountain Gorillas is paying off

    Apparently numbers in the Virunga Massif national parks is up from 380 to 480. So good news, but they are not out of danger yet, by any means. The total known world population still stands at just 786 (And yeah I know there is a wayward apostrophe in the title, I noticed it a split second...

    The Rutles

    Any fans of the pre-fab four around here? Here's one of my favourite Rutles songs, It's Looking Good, taken from their historic 20 minute performance at Che Stadium during the '64/'65 world tour (I prefer this version to the studio track from Ouch!) -...

    10 01 56

    On the side of the CG model of the TARDIS console used as a backdrop for the menus on the series 5 bluray boxset (and I expect, it's probably on the dvd release too) you can see, front and centre, the numbers '10 01 56'. Does anyone know their significance? I thought it might represent a...

    What if?; Hinchcliffe had of stayed on..

    I'm fascinated by one of the new documentaries on the new release of The Talons of Weng Chiang where Hinchcliffe states he went into the end of Season 14 expecting to do another season - before being told he was to helm a series called Target. It made me wonder; what would a season 15 or 16 of...

    PS3 Firmware 3.50 problems

    Last night I went to play borderlands online, and it said it needed to download the latest patch, so it did that, but it then said it needed to connect to the PS3 network to do so. It was at this stage that I was forced to dl the latest ps3 firmware upgrade, 3.50, in order to connect to the...

    Lost In Time Re-Release?

    EzyDVD here in Aus have the Lost In Time set listed as "Coming Soon" with a release date of June 1st. See - http://www.ezydvd.com.au/item.zml/813553 I had heard nothing about a re-release of this set. Is this just some error at the EzyDVD website, or what?

    BabelColour has been busy..

    I hadn't checked out BabelColour's youtube work for a couple of years now, so when I popped in there recently I was pleasantly surpised. He has been busy. Have you guys seen these? The Time War The Ten Doctors - Part 1 The Ten Doctors - Part 2 Truth be told, they are more like trailers to...

    Salt Creature!!

    Sorry if this has already been posted. I had a cursory look around for it but it's not on the first couple of pages as far as I can see. Check out the "Aliens" feature on the special features disk of the blu-ray and you will see an updated version of the Salt Monster (as seen in the TOS episode...

    NO MORE BLAH BLAH BLAH!

    Seriously. Since the film's release, this forum has become a mad cacophony of whiney protests about canon violations, shakey-cam, lens flares, whether it's an alternate universe or if it's crapped over the whole history of Trek, to the fact that the TNG crew weren't out there poncing around for...

    Blunty3000's Youtube review + cast interviews

    Apologies if these have already been posted - I had a bit of a look around and couldn't see them anywhere. These are all from Blunty3000's youtube channel. I got a kick out of them, thought I'd share - Blunty's Review - New Star Trek, Does it Suck? (Non spoiler review) Star Trek World...

    Just give us new TOS

    I'm not interested in spin-off ideas, in series set in different places with different characters. There is only one setting, one collection of characters I care about - Kirk, Spock, Bones et all on the starship Enterprise. No bloody sideways reboots or upside-down reboots or space stations or...

    Rank ALL the DVDs, by Doctor. Part 4: Peter Davison

    Welcome back to the continuing series of ranking threads by Doctor. This time it's that country-vet turned cricketing all-rounder/time-lord, Peter Davison's turn - My rankings : Fifth Doctor : The Caves of Androzani Castrovalva Earthshock The Visitation Resurrection of the Daleks Four to...

    A Private Little War - Minor Classic..

    Maybe it's because I was a bit drunk while watching it, but this episode struck me recently as a classic. "Serpents, Mr. Scott, for the Garden of Eden", says Kirk at the end, seemingly, and finally, aware of the problem that has been artificially created. "Beam us up, home". It's great stuff...

    Rank ALL the DVDs, by Doctor. Part 3 : Tom Baker

    Back again after a short hiatus. This time it's my favourite doctor, Tom Baker's turn. As always these are based on story alone, so a DVD viewing is not strictly necessary - Fourth Doctor : Genesis of the Daleks The Robots of Death The Talons of Weng-Chiang The Ark in Space Horror of Fang Rock...
