I borrowed the dvd set from a friend some years ago. I watched all 13 episodes and didn’t dislike it. I’ve never been tempted back to it though and certainly wouldn’t fork out for the forthcoming coming Blu-Ray release.

The trailer for this felt like an hour long when I had to sit through it last time I was at the cinema. Hats off to Paul for making it through the movie. I’m definitely not going to bother with it (like I was anyway). youtu.be/2WQTipLQoGc?...

I always look forward to the BBC’s ‘Ghost Story For Christmas’. They don’t make much else that interests me at the moment. Martin Freeman having the lead makes it even better, he’s one of the best actors in the business. share.google/4vhP8dMXAV7c...

And for me, he’ll always be Akton in Starcrash, one of my favourite guilty pleasures. Gloriously cheesy, wonderfully bonkers, and Marjoe gave it everything! A memorable actor and a very welcome face on our screens. Rest in peace, Marjoe. share.google/mFEHw3RWNkgn...

A sad farewell to Marjoe Gortner. His guest appearances throughout 70s and 80s television always seemed to have something extra — he had a screen presence that made him stand out from his contemporaries.

For a 10-year-old, it had everything. Superman, three great villains and plenty of action. It ticked all the boxes.

DocSputnik @doctorsputnik.bsky.social · 03/10/2026

Knowing nothing about its famously troubled production, I simply loved what was on screen — especially the confrontations between Superman and the three villains: General Zod, Ursa and Non.

I’d just turned 10 when Superman II arrived in the UK. It wasn’t a film I’d been eagerly counting down to, but it slotted nicely into the mix while we waited for that final Star Wars instalment.

The decision was also influenced by the wider economic difficulties of the period and ITC’s desire to concentrate resources on other television and film projects.

DocSputnik @doctorsputnik.bsky.social · 01/10/2026

Gerry Anderson told the production crew on 19 October 1976 that ITC would not proceed with a third season, while Season Two was still being filmed.

DocSputnik @doctorsputnik.bsky.social · 01/10/2026

The series shifts somewhat towards lighter, more adventurous science fiction, with the Alphans encountering strange planets, alien civilisations and increasingly bizarre cosmic phenomena.

DocSputnik @doctorsputnik.bsky.social · 01/10/2026

Year Two introduces Maya, an alien from the planet Psychon who can transform herself into other living beings, and Tony Verdeschi, who becomes Alpha’s chief security officer and Maya’s love interest.
