Round 3 heads towards its conclusion and things aren't getting any easier. It's time to start thinking about how hard Round 4 is gonna be cos lets face it as we near having just 64 thrills left we know they are all (well almost all) gonna be beauties and the tough ties we see this week will be the regular head scratchers in a couple of weeks time. Arh remember how easy Round 2 was!

Tough tie to end the week... I mean not this one the other one today. I mean this one is a shue win for Nick Stone and co who hardly had to draw breath to see off Stalag 666 last round. I've still not forgiven Dash Decent for doing for Department K in Round 1's biggest travesty, but it got an easy draw against Zombie Army last time. That luck ends here?

Not a fan off either of these nostalgic stories but I will give my vote to Meltdown Man
When I die, I want to die like my grandfather who died peacefully in his sleep. Not screaming like all the passengers in his car.

Old age is the Lord's way of telling us to step aside for something new. Death's in case we didn't take the hint.

I like Dash Decent, but it's got to be Meltdown Man in this battle of the Prog 178 starters.

I like the much-maligned Dash Decent (but then I guess it took inspiration from one of my favourite films.

But Meltdown Man is one of my favourite thrills of all time, so I'm voting for that.  Prog 178 for the win!

Hah! Colin, you couldn't have engineered a more fitting squishing for DD if you'd tried. A thrill of the same vintage, so no nostlagia goggles to get in the way of the reality that Meltdown Man is hands down wittier, smarter and all around better.

Will any Round 4 ties be this easy to choose?

Meltdown Man has a thin story that ends abruptly, but it's still good enough. Dash... er, no.
