Those New Spin-off Annuals From TV's Sherlock...

Each year I produce a selection of annuals for the Christmas period. In 2015, I did one for a Sherlock spin-off series featuring Mycroft Holmes. I posted it on here - along with some others - and then it went the way of all things.

Last week, following her sterling work in the second episode of the fourth series, I posted a cover for a Mrs. Hudson Adventures annual. 

It seems to have gone down well with tweeterers. It got mentioned by the Radio Times and was featured on the #SherlockReacts show on the official BBC Sherlock channel. 

Never one to leave a gag untold and to always wring the last drop of humour from it, I did a handful of other Sherlock spin-offs and posted them to Twitter. 

Needless to say, the response has been underwhelming...

Here they are anyway... 

(By the way, I have one final Sherlock spin-off annual to post but I won't be doing it until Sunday evening on the Twitter due to potential SPOILERS!) 

The Strange World of Juliet Bravo Toys

There can't be many Saturday night TV shows that were broadcast during the 1980s that spawned as much merchandise as Juliet Bravo. 

Sadly much of it is rarely seen nowadays outside of Yorkshire where the "official Juliet Bravo play costume dress-up set" was the top Christmas present for two years running in 1982 and 1983. 

Luckily, I've managed to acquire a job lot of this highly sought after material and I want to share it with you on my blog. 

Why? 

God knows... 

Here they are.

 

Happy New Year!

I took a bit of a break over the Christmas/New year holiday. You probably noticed the lack of new posts since mid December... Over the next week or so, I'll be plumbing in a new PC and sorting out my files so the drought of new posts will continue for a few days yet. 

In the meantime, I've spruced up my Third Doctor Target book covers with the more familiar 'gate logo' branding from the mid seventies. I'll post larger versions at a later date. I hope to create postcards out of some them.
