The second of our two bonus pods see us pay tribute to the best moustache in showbizness, Prentis Hancock, who sadly left us earlier this month. Playing the pivotal role of 2nd in command, Paul Morrow, we remember him for all his magnificence (just don't mention the magic mushrooms).
Moving on to the main event, we watch the fan edit God's Will - a great vision by Eric Bernard who spent years re-tooling the episode of War Games to explain away the differences between year 1 and year 2. To be honest, it's great seeing all the old cast again. You can catch him at http://www.space1999.org/features/articles_interviews/ericbernard_interview1.html - sadly his site space2099.com seems to be gone.
Then normally Colin would set a quiz for Katie but oh no - it's the turn of John Humpries of the BBC quiz show Mastermind and we try and see if we can go out-do Space: 1999 mega fan Samira Ahmed. We also run through a list of other famous celebrity fans of the show, only a couple are on the 'oh no' list we promise. YouTube link to Samria's performance: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y6JTqf295Q8
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!
