I loved Blakes 7. I bought all the DVD's a few years back but haven't watched them for fear of disappointment.

 

Watch em…………the series was shown a couple of years ago on one of the cable channels………….I watch it and still enjoyed it :P

 

 

Always had a bit of a crush on Sally Knyvette who played Jenna Stannis <3

Memories of watching Saturday morning at the Cinema….thought it was great at the time………..how time plays tricks with the auld memory. :grin:

 

TV series…………got to be one of the funniest shows on TV………acting was worse than Blakes 7…………..which I loved doh!

I have Blakes 7 on Video, not bad actually if you can take the fashion of the day.

Space 1999 is great also but the outfits are so bad.

 

You still have a video player? :o

Everybody wears krappy clothes in the future.

 

Im wearing crappy clothes now. lol

 

You must be in the future already.

 

No, he's just in Newcastle :baiting:

 

:roflmao: I knew I was setting myself up for abuse.

I am running a Video/DVD converter in my spare room every chance I get.

I have about 3000 video tapes of old sci-fi shows, films and serials from the 1930s onward still to convert.

As well as the DVDs, so far I have 6TB of stuff on Hard drives, its a long slow process due to work.

I am a proud to be a total nerd. :acclaim:

Makes sense not to have all the effort of building a video collection go to waste, and to archive it digitally before it begins to deteriorate. It's also possible that some of the material hasn't been released on DVD yet, anyway.  You know, in retrospect I wish I'd done some of this. Ah, well.

Serials like Buck Rogers, Flash Gordon, Superman, Captain Marvel, King of the Rocketmen etc, conversion can be iffy as some are not great to start with.

Lots of 1950s & 1960s B movies, most of these I recorded myself from the TV so not bad.

Twilight Zone, Outer Limits, Lost in Space, Star Trek, Blakes 7, Doctor Who, Space 1999, most Gerry Anderson series.

Some of these I have bought on DVD only to find that they are edited in some way.

Started to buy stuff like Star Trek on DVD, then just gave up due to cost as I can watch them direct from my Hard drive without the need for a DVD.

A lot of these can be downloaded straight off the net now, so I am working my way through what I can get that way and what condition it is in.

I never knew they did a Captain Marvel series.

 

I've seen on the back of a comic book cover, Batman & Robin from the 60s along with Captain Marvel, Hawkman some old geezer dressed up, with a load of villains.

 

What other 60s series were there other then Batman & Robin?

One of my books from LSCC has actually been graded! Funny thing is its a book I took with me but with not much intension of being signed. I had it in my bag when they did the next 50 people who get to stan lee queue get half signing for £20 or £25. Something like that. Anyway I had wolverine #1 patch series from a small run I'd bought in my bag and it's graded at a 9.6, which Im happy with.

 

Worse thing is my economies still haven't been graded! Sharon said it can't be long as about to go past their agreed upon max business days to grade. So hopefully should see them this side of the pearly gates!
