So we've The Troubled Spirit's slightly lesser cousin as a young blonde with a tight perm can do magic tricks, turn Maya into a caterpillar and force John into telling us that he loves us all. Even you Colin (manc) who completely gets the opening scene wrong.
It's actually quite a good episode this, with the emphasis on the metaphysical and even haunted house type spooky stuff, as John relives the time when he left people to die of Venusian space herpes. I'm sure you can get a cream for that now. Maya turns into a bonking chimp, there's lots of marble action, Luigi gets annoyed because he can't win at Connect 4 and the Austin Powers time travel special effect makes an early debut. Groovy baby!
Post-pod we played the only Space: 1999 game we could find - written for the Oric and a beautiful piece of 8-bit treasure.
What happens when someone who's never seen classic 70s sci-fi watches it with their other half who's a total geek for it? Will they love it, hate it, or ask for a divorce on the spot? The Mackem (Katie) and the Manc (Colin) from England are watching all 48 episodes and, for you the wonderful listener, we hope there's some humor and fun comments. You can also listen and watch at the same time, or just enjoy the banter. Warning - there's a few rude words!
