Just remember, nothing is as low budget as Blakes 7...

That's not true, Moonbase 3 is lower budget...

Ohh, I'd forgotten all about Moonbase 3...

Well, now you can remember all its glory, and if you can't, I've got it on tape.

Mm. It's not fast moving I'll grant you, but it is well-written.

MM, if you say so. I remember next to nothing about it.
I do have two episodes of Doomwatch on dvd though. They're quite fun.

Doomwatch is one of the few series I've never seen. Which is starnge, as it's exactly the sort of thing you'd expect you to have seen.

That almost made sense, didn't it?
Send me an e-mail with your postal address, I'll pop it in the mailbox before I go away. If you're lucky.

It made sense to me 
Oo, goody, more ancient cult I'll be able to say I've seen 
That'd be great

No worries. I only paid £4 for it (mostly because I'd never seen it either), so not a tragedy if it goes astray, methinks. 
My brother has a complete set of the Kit Pedlar/Gerry Davis novelizations, as well...
Still in mint condition

£4? Off a market jobby was it?
The Doomwatch novelizations? I've seen a couple of those at fairs, bu they looked so refolting tatty, I gave them a miss.

Yeah. The Beeb licensed Doomwatch off to some bunch of chancers rather than release it themselves, it appears...

Probably figured the sales wouldn't be high enough to make it worth BBC Worldwide's time.

I'm guessing. Quality is ropey (and that s the original VT, not the dvd transfer), and they only appear to have the two eopisodes left in any event.

I'm afraid Doomwatch fell foul of the great BBC purge in the 70s 
, that much I do know.

Very possibly. I know they saw fit to junk things like Panarama and Tomorrow's World from the 60s. I'm sure there's a complete record of Match of the Day though

Mind you of course, Nationwide was part of the legendary Monday night line up that cost more than Blakes 7...

Indeed. Got to keep that in case there's every any way of making money from it again
