Wit, raconteur, bon viveur. He is none of these things. A purveyor of cheap mummery and piffle since 1976. Throws random words at a screen for Set The Tape. Bluesky’s foremost Biggles: Adventures In Time aficionado.

By 1970 Kirby had basically downed tools at Marvel and was trying very hard not to give the company any more of his characters and concepts. But even when he was just drawing throwaway robots, they still ended up looking like THIS dude.

The BBC does genuinely seem to be trying to save money where it can; they scrapped an undercover investigation where Amol Rajan went out clubbing with a view to exposing the easy access to poppers because they didn't want to pay for the Amol night rate

The AI industry continues to be trapped in an endless panicky improv game, where they have to think up new uses for the humorously pointless object they’ve been given.

From the West Lancashire Evening Gazette, 4 March 1986: a Doctor Who story writing competition judged by Dennis Spooner and Robert Holmes, which makes you wonder if the event was cursed as both of them would be dead within six months of the closing date.
Seasider's DIARY
Write a plot for the Doctor

WHO fancies their chances as a sci-fi story writer?

If you've got time on your hands you may like to enter a competition to
compose a tale featuring Dr Who and any of his old adversaries.

Set your control at 1,000 words and let your imagination turn out a galaxy-gripping storyline.

Prove yourself a master in Dalek-dialogue, Cybermen-chat or Tardis-talk and you'll be Lorded up with prizes including Dr Who videos, books and T-shirts.

Entries will be judged by Dr Who script writers Dennis Spooner and Robert Holmes.

The competition has been organised by the Blackpool Branch of the Dr Who Appreciation Society who plan to submit the top stories for inclusion in a soon-to-be-launched national society magazine.

Dr Who freaks up and down the country currently number 3.500-plus.

Time, lords and ladies, will be called on March 21, with the winners notified
by April 4. Entries to Mr Andrew Hayes, c/o 40 Dean Street, South Shore.

Meanwhile the next dose of Doctor-mania will be dished out at the next branch meeting at Blackpool Central Library on March 8.
