First thought on seeing this went to TV Go Home, imagining a programme called 'FLAGS, FLAGS, FLAGS' - your weekly look at flags.

Obvs my brain went 'oh recycled Daleks'

Dalek graveyard?

This is terrific. New interviews with all the major players - and some surprising minor ones - plus fresh insights, beautiful design... Another first-class publication from Team DWM.

Had to pause for a moment as genuinely thought that was the back of the head of the Boy from Space.

"What's that mysterious ring around Uranus?"

Nearest book, p.42, second sentence:

'The film climaxes in a major inferno.'

NEW: Astronaut Reid Wiseman shares a video of ‘Earthset’ that was taken with his iPhone

“This is uncropped, uncut with 8x zoom which is quite comparable to the view of the human eye…” Wiseman said.

This has to be the greatest iPhone video of all time.

Need to go back to my watch through, Measure for Measure is next, which I'm not familar with.

You suddenly bolt awake shivering. It is 13 October 1066, and you are William of Normandy. You call your retainers and once ordered, reluctantly they begin marching back to the shore and your waiting fleet. The cursed future you saw shall not come to pass.

FFS Radio 4 Today were *still* banging on endlessly about Mandelson this morning. I'm bored to tears with it. Yes, there was a major cock-up, which no-one has come out of well. Time to move on. There are more important things happening in the world.

Arguably the KLF's best single and the one that deserved to go to number 1, but didn't cos Bryan Adams. There's a couple of versions on the KLF mix I did www.mixcloud.com/johnrivers/t...

Used to love playing this out. An improvement on the original. A perfect mash-up with Gary Numan, by Richard X. Deserved to go to number 1 and still sounds amazing in the middle of a mix.

VIOLENCE is never the answer, my granddad used to say. As such, when I appeared on The Weakest Link a few years back, and Anne Robinson asked "What "V' is a noun meaning 'physical force intend. ed to hurt, damage or kill?'," I said I didn't know, and subsequently got voted off without winning a penny. Thanks a fucking bunch, granddad. T Ellen, London

Same. My boss quit today, so it’s all very exciting.

Don’t spose there’s no new issues of Vworp Vworp or Nothing at the End of the Lane on the way is there? Or any other great fanzine recommendations?

GRANGE HILL: "Slip on the wet floor, did you?" Phil Redmond's hard-hitting school drama didn't pull its punches. In a 'they did things differently back then' scene from 1981, hard but fair P.E. teacher 'Bullet' Baxter doles out justice to a colleague who's been bullying kids.

I've just finished reading this and it's excellent - a very clear and at times surprising look at what makes 'The Daleks' and subsequently Doctor Who, work so well. Recommended.

‘People still remember it 40 years later’: the making of Chuckie Egg The iconic game that came to define 8-bit programming still conjures flutters of nostalgia 40 years on – all thanks to a 15-year-old tea boy who worked a Saturday shift in a computer shop in Greater M...

Hi I wrote about the making of classic platformerChuckie Egg and talked to its creator Nigel Alderton. Please give it a read as I want to show there’s an audience for this gaming history stuff 🙏

The dullest micro scandal in history, being covered like it’s the OJ trial.

King says late Queen may been 'troubled deeply' by world we live in

On the other hand, she may have not given a toss. 🤷

Just can't summon any interest in this Starmer story. It's like the media's obsession with Wrexham FC all over again.

this is cool

This is my poster for Doctor Who: The Gunfighters. It features the First Doctor holding a gun, coloured in blue and red, with little figures behind him, coloured in blue. The background is a light yellow. On the top left, it says "All he wanted was a dentist. He got a shootout instead." On First Doctor's body, it says "William Hartnell, in a episode directed by Rex Tucker", "The Gunfighters - a Doctor Who original", 16mm - Black & White" and "With Peter Purves & Jackie Lane". On the bottom, it says all the other cast members in the episode. My watermark is on the bottom left corner.

NEW ARTWORK!

It's been 60 years since Dr. Who visited Tombstone for a dental emergency and what he got instead was a gunfight. Yeee-haw!! 🤠🐎

My group of artist friends wanted to make posters for The Gunfighters for its anniversary, so I had to join and make one! #DoctorWho #WilliamHartnell
