But take a look at the date

If it materialises then it could be good - but I wouldn't get you're hopes up. If I recall correctly it was due around the same time as the new blakes 7 series (which totally failed to take off)

edit - and from imdb
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0366112/
Looks like a new Blakes 7 may be a goer after all....

Just hope they don't change the liberator.

Re: Science Fiction, Fantasy, and other Snippets

I suppose it depends if it's a remake or a sequel.

It would be nice if they could find a souped up liberator type ship

Another (longer) article. Apparently they are making two 60 minute episodes.

Being Human

If you watched this one off drama back in February you may be interested to know that the BBC have comissioned a 6 part series. Being human was about two friends (one is a werewolf, the other is a vampire) who live in a house with a young woman (who is a ghost).

Re: Science Fiction, Fantasy, and other Snippets

Dr Richard Dawkins will play himself in the Dr Who S4 finale, Michael Brandon will also appear as a General.

The next Christmas special should feature the Cybermen as they have been spotted on location (filming in a graveyard).

ITV have picked up the new Sanctuary series to be shown on ITV4 later this year.

The BSG prequal series (Caprica) is taking shape, with the Graystones and the Adams (later to be the Adamas).

Although not officially announced, SC-FI do not appear to have renewed Flash Gordon.

Primevals third season has begun filming, with three new characters joining the cast.

Re: Science Fiction, Fantasy, and other Snippets

Interesting stuff about Dr Who

Also the confirmation of Sanctuary on ITV - the first tranche demanded a sequel, so something to look forward to - in my opinion, of course

Thanks Paul ..

I'm gutted about Moonlight; don't think I've been so much in love with a show since Firefly. I sure know how to pick 'em

Re: Science Fiction, Fantasy, and other Snippets

I can't be bothered to get involved with fantasy/SF TV shows anymore.So many get cancelled and when you have invested time in getting to know the characters and their stories, it's rather peeving to find yourself left hanging mid story wondering how it all turns out. It really pees me off.

The end result is I just don't watch them.What's the point in never knowing how a story ends?

I'd rather buy a book and know that there will be an ending of sorts and I won't be wasting my time.
