Sapphire and Steel Emergency Hotline!

"When there's something strange in your neighbourhood, who you gonna call?" 

Stuff the Ghostbusterers. They're ex-directory anyway! 

Now there's only one number to remember!

(I did this in December. You can tell can't you.)

Some More Bits of 60s Doctor Who Artwork

I know I haven't posted them all but last year I did pieces of artwork based on every 60s Doctor Who adventure. They weren't necessarily meant for posting on here. I did them as an exercise to practice my Photoshop skills. 

Here's a few more...

Carry on Star Wars! (or Ooooo! Look At The Size Of His Death Star!!)

Followers on Twitter will no doubt have seen that I produced some tat for BBC4 over Christmas. One item didn't get used. Although it was funny, it didn't fit for the remit to produce a selection of retro Christmas toys/gifts based on the channel's festive output. 

One of BBC4's major contributions to the Christmas television schedule was a documentary chronicling the British creativity behind the original Star Wars movies. It was thought a good idea to meld the sci-fi franchise with possibly the most successful British movie franchise after James Bond. 

So I did this cinema poster in the vein of those Hammer comedy ones I did a year ago... 

Instead of promoting the documentary's broadcast, it's here instead.

The Steven Moffat Memorial Clock

Look. I'm sorry I haven't posted anything since well before Christmas... but I've been busy. Busy with real life stuff and nonsense. Yes, I've still been tweeting bits and bobs but not actually updating the blog. 

Well, here I am and with a free few hours to bring things up to date.

First up is something to memorialise the life of  former Dr Who show-runner Steven Moffat. And, ironically for a writer who first coined the phrase 'timey-wimey', it's a clock.  

Don't worry he's not dead. The folk who make these things will produce tat like this at the drop of a hat. So I'v done that as well...

Pertwee Gold Key Dr Who Comics...

In the absence of a decent Dr WHO calendar this year, I've plummed for that rather nice retro Star Trek one which reprints the gaudy covers of the franchise's first foray into comic books courtesy of the US publisher Gold Key. 


Here's a few Gold Key inspired Dr WHO covers for the third Doctor.
