Before we get to the colossal™ guest star and the famous Solarium scene, Colin spends 10 minutes telling the audience all about the crazyness of ITV television scheduling during the 1970's. So fast forward to 10:25 if you want to just hear about this mad episode.

Ian McShane wanders through MoonBase Alpha, killing people with either amazing beards or being a foxy posh brunette. There's no technobabble as we are straight into the action - and that's just the bikinis in the solarium. There's a posh alarm clock, the season's first married couple, Katie never having seen Lovejoy and the mystery of whether Ian played himself as the burnt man at the end.

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!
