And, more specifically regarding Dalek Juice, this:

@KnightmareUK was Knightmare Castle the first roguelike? I've discovered that anything approaching a definitive map is impossible, but I had a shot at the rooms from the first 3 seasons! (work in progress).

Can't wait for The War Games in Colour, what a Xmas treat for us all! I wonder if this new edit will push the reveal of what's behind the painting in General Smythe's office to just a few minutes later. I've always thought it happens far too near the start of Part 1.

+ 'BBC2 IDENT CLOCK' + In between working on orders this morning I made a BBC2 clock for a friend's Xmas present. Popped a handful in the shop, available to pre-order for shipping in Jan. The shop will close on Monday PM for the year, so be quick. 🎄 🎁 🔥 https://t.co/WM5NKBwEwR

Behold a book with some words by me in! Received my author copy of LAUGHS IN SPACE an anthology of humorous science fiction tales from The Slab Press, which contains my short story SHELF LIFE. Available to buy now!

And it's so beautifully directed it really ought to be available on blu-ray. But in the absence of a blu-ray, I suppose Amazon Prime will have to do.

So many moments linger in the memory. Shun telling the tale of his family to the publishing editors, and his drunken rage in the restaurant. Amy trying to orchestrate the chaotic music in her head, and her tearful screaming breakdown in the penultimate episode. Acting feats.

The characters manage to be comically large but emotionally real, absurd yet believable. Each one of them is an intricate portrait of mental unwellness. It's an excellent depiction of depression and so very very funny. How this series isn't better known is beyond me.

Just finished rewatching Flowers, the Channel 4 series by Will Sharpe. As utterly outstanding as I remember it being. A rare piece of creativity that feels perfect in every respect: the writing, the direction, the acting, the music, all of it.
