A Star Trek Discovery book cover...

What the third season of Star Trek Discovery should be in a nutshell...

Original 70s Special Edition Action Man - Brigadier from BBCtv's Dr Who

We all know that Doctor Who's man of action during the seventies wasn't the Doctor. Battling Yeti, Cybermen, Autons, Axons and Dinosaurs on the streets of the home counties, only one man stood in the way of alien invasions. It was Brigadier Alistair Gordon Lethbridge Stewart and his optional hyphen. 

Palitoy never had plans to add a special Brigadier figure to their very popular Action Man range and never approached the BBC with the idea. They never mocked up a sample to see how one would look or got the actor Nicholas Courtney to sign off on the figure's likeness. 

None of this was ever done. So these images don't actually exist.

Some 70s Doctor Who Ice Lolly Things...

The weather's been nice recently so I've done few 70s ice lollies. 

I don't think they'll reach the dizzying heights of notoreity that my old Sapphire & Steel ice lolly did a few years ago but they'll probably amuse folk who've lost their sense of taste.
