@DrFreshMD @collinstimbela_ What size dose are you taking? Too much mg biglycinate can have the opposite effect and cause insomnia.

@CameronYardeJnr Crisis Command was superb and I rewatched the entire series last year. It’s something that could easily be done afresh and the comparisons would be very interesting.

@smartgiles It's on Wikipedia because Andrew Pixley put it in his DWM Archive. But it's in the DWM Archive because he got the information from TARDIS!

TARDIS Vol 1/11 from Oct/Nov 1976 (when Face of Evil was in studio), published this, hinting that the new companion was going to be played by Emily Richard - a name that never appears in the lists of people they saw for the role of Leela. I wonder where they got that idea from?

It's interesting to see how, by its second week, the British audience's opinion on Star Trek was somewhat divided.

Trailer for the BBC1 debut of Star Trek, which was broadcast after the concluding episode of The War Games.

@Gypsypup13 The recent suggestion is not to feed birds during the period of 1 May and 31 October. bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…

@TomABacon What Gold said was, "I know that Russell’s written, I think, multiple versions depending on certain outcomes. So that’s all I really know, and I’m not sure [that] I’m even supposed to know that." So, it was something that he'd heard secondhand and that he wasn't sure of.

@RoeRalph92965 @hollywoodscifi The cost of videotape was very high in the 1960s. The only way for new programmes to be made economically was to wipe and reuse the tapes. Repeats were very limited back then anyway.

@Kaos_Madness @hollywoodscifi It didn't have anything whatsoever to do with the government! 🤣

@MaclureAndrew @__Sabs @mtrigby @AnnemarieDray So, if you are going to mandate it for all games (which FIFA have), just when is the sensible time to implement it?

@__Sabs @mtrigby @AnnemarieDray “Apparantly”? Some of the games in this World Cup are being played in 30+ degree heat, so it’s now mandated. Not a random pick and choose by the referee, like in Qatar.

@__Sabs @mtrigby @AnnemarieDray They’re mandated by FIFA for all the games, it doesn’t matter what the venue is. They might be used by some broadcasters (certainly not all) for adverts, but that’s not the reason they’re there. They started in the last World Cup.

@edstradling @GuyLambertUK Don't be snarky, Ed. I've got the evidence in Segal's archive, the evidence of the original Dark Dimension production paperwork, both pre and post-cancellation and the evidence of those involved.

@edstradling @GuyLambertUK It categorically is not a theory, Ed. And your large body of evidence was nothing of the sort.

@edstradling @GuyLambertUK There is no other "available evidence" other than Segal's say-so and his own document archive of faxes to and from Alan Yentob proves him to be wrong. The TVM wasn't even a going concern from the BBC until after the cancellation of The Dark Dimension.

@MaverickPro @GuyLambertUK I've already written a 30-page article which reveals for the first time its origins, development and the real reason why it collapsed, just six weeks before principal photography was due to begin, in Issue 3 of Nothing at the End of the Lane. endofthelane.co.uk/magazine.html

@MaverickPro @GuyLambertUK The other Doctors were only written in at Tom's asking. It wasn't envisioned as being a multi-Doctor story. And the script, largely, is fine. Nothing that a polish from a decent script editor wouldn't have fixed. Graeme Harper certainly seemed happy enough with it.
