To everything that might have been... to everything that might yet be.
The last podcast. With a ting of sadness we wrap out what remains of the Space: 1999 universe, starting with the two Year 2 movies, Destination Moonbase Alpha and Cosmic Princess. What's not the like about seeing the pink gimp mask dude one last time, this time with a silly voice over? And Katie finally gets to meet Oliver Onions. Was it worth the wait?
We then sweep up the semi-unofficial content, with:
Message from Moonbase Alpha - https://youtu.be/qqW1xHgwZHQ?si=pKbl6_2sia7qIiMK
The Return of Victor Bergman - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XZWm80QEVEQ

(not all links will work in all countries - sorry!)
We discuss what did (or didn't happen) to Season 3 and the remake promised for Space: 2099, and it their absense enjoy the brilliant fan-made trailer at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7iF-4zXbZC8&pp=ygUZYW50b24gcGhpbGxpcHMgc3BhY2UgMTk5OQ%3D%3D
We also give Katie a taster of the audiobooks by Big Finish in the brilliant teaser at https://youtu.be/Tipx1MrxRTA?si=0F6TVJEuKjjLZffD
In Part 2 of this episode we will discuss our feelings on the show and hint at the subject matter of our next podcast series.

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!
