A few weeks ago on the Twitter I put out a request for ideas for my 500th post. To say I was inundated with suggestions is an understatement. In the end I chose three ideas that tickled my fancy and here they are.
A big thank you to Paul Gibbs ( @gibbspaulus ) for the Threads baby mobile, Simon Hart ( @si_hart ) for the Encyclopaedia of Juliet Bravo - E-K, and Chris Orton ( @chrisorton2011 ) for the Tenko playhouse. Follow them as they seem to share the same sense of the absurd as I do.
Also a big thank you too to everyone who suggested their own ideas.
Well, the fifth series of Line of Duty is finally over and now's the time to release start releasing that tidal wave of merchandise in time for Christmas.
Let's start with this...
Something for all the younger viewers eager for puzzles and morse code breaking challenges.

Since I haven't mentioned Brexit recently (though everyone else has), here's the latest part work due to hit newsagents shortly. I can't give a date for the publication but then again, that's a given...

Apparently my earlier faux Star Trek novel cover - based on the original James Blish novelisation - featuring Anson Mount and Ethan Peck as Captain Pike and Lt. Spock was quite popular. So popular that I'm sure that Anson Mount is getting a little fed up with his Twitter feed being cluttered with retweets of it from his adoring fans. Thank you for that.
Here's a few more early Star Trek variants featuring the new old cast of the spin-off that whilst it's so obvious that it should be produced, won't be knowing the complicated legalities of the Star Trek franchise at CBS.

Following the huge phenomenal popular success of putting old Doctor Who episodes on to the Blu ray disc format, the BBC have decided to extend the idea to other cult TV shows in its back catalogue.
Following an analysis of social media (and in particular a select group of Twitter movers and shakers), they have chosen Juliet Bravo - the hit 80s police series - as their next project.
The series was hugely popular in the 1980s for many years and was a permanent fixture of Saturday night viewing until Casualty turned up and spoilt it all. Questions were often asked in the Houses of Parliament, not about the series but none-the-less, they were asked. And schoolboys everywhere filled their playgrounds with the sounds of "I-Am-Juliet-Bravo!!, I-Am-Juliet-Bravo!!". There was even talk of a movie (by two old ladies in a Swindon cafe over a five-item breakfast.).
It was THAT huge!
Anyway, here's the covers for the first two releases -available in exclusive steelbook editions - which should hit stores when they are thrown at them from a short distance.
