So we’ve arrived at the finale! It is fitting then, that the final challenge is favourite season finale! The very final episode of Deep Space Nine was and is a moment for me that felt pretty powerful. DS9 was the most thought-provoking of all the Treks, and the final episode brought us the conclusion to […]
Saddest character death. I’m going to spring a surprise or two with this one. First up is the young king everyone loves to hate, Joffrey from Game of Thrones. His death isn’t sad because you mourn the passing of the character. It’s sad because as he passes away, you are reminded that for all her […]
After yesterday’s best cliffhanger, comes worst cliffhanger. This is much more difficult. I suppose ‘worst’ might be when the outcome is pretty obvious as to what comes next. VOY’s season 5 finale Equinox featured an apparent moment of peril for Captain Janeway, but she was never likely to die. The destruction of a ship in […]
Favourite Season Finale Cliffhanger! This is easy. Best of Both Worlds ended season 3 of TNG on an incredible note. Captain Picard had been captured and assimilated by the Borg. The Borg ship was on its way to earth, intent on wiping out humanity, and the crew of the Enterprise had one chance to stop […]
Day 27 is ‘best special effects’. There have been a lot of FX in various genres that can best be described as mesmerising, albeit for different reasons. The work across the various Star Trek shows could be considered ground-breaking for their time, and the FX used on action shows like Spartacus deserves a mention for […]
Favourite sci-fi show! Now we’re cooking. Where do I begin?! There’s the venerable Doctor Who, with the mysterious figure of the Doctor and his adventures. There’s Babylon 5, which delved into mythology in a clever way. There’s Stargate SG1, one of my all-time favourites. The winner though, is the Star Trek show that broke the […]
So, just who is my favourite TV show cop? A good question and one I am struggling to answer. I wish I could define Sherlock as a cop, but he’s a private consultant! Gene Hunt of Life on Mars is a ‘unique’ character but I don’t think I can call him my favourite. I’ve never […]
Favourite villain! This is certainly easier than the last question! Who is deliciously villainous enough to qualify for this honour? Gul Dukat from DS9 springs to mind. He was always scheming and plotting, doing everything he could to elevate himself. He wanted his people to be strong and if that meant placing them in the […]
Once again I conspire to be a day late! Here goes: Favourite actor who seems to be in everything. You know, this is tough because I can’t think of someone who fits this category! Nope I really can’t. Gonna have to chalk this off as a loss!
Today is favourite catchphrase. I can’t say I’ve really paid too much attention to catchphrases, though I might have been subconsciously influenced by a few. ‘Make it so’ is Captain Picard’s famous saying from TNG, and honestly, I can’t think of any others off the top of my head.
Breached the 70K mark on my wip! Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!
This is just sheer absolute, exquisite beauty.
I have eaten too much pizza.
I don't think it's up to you to decide what's best for women, nor whether or not men can find them attractive...
Ever since I was a cub, I have generally speaking been fond of swimming. I don’t do it often, but when I do, I enjoy it. I consider myself a reasonably confident swimmer, and I have few qualms about going out into the sea when at the beach (well, when I’m somewhere warm, with clear […]
