Thanks, Rich.

And here is Matthew's Desmond Walduck grail page

[Colin YNWA]

ohhh I can really see the John Ridgway comparisons now!

[Eamonn Clarke]

Here are two more Walduck pages that may give more Ridgway vibes, and also demonstrate some of the repeated cruelty the plucky heroine has to endure.

Good spot. Stokes was often uncredited in his 60s and 70s IPC work so who knows?

Another film club intermission as Luke Aldred and Conrad Leiden return to discuss the fabulous Robocop and its less successful sequel, and to try and work out the connections to Dredd.
Surely you would buy that for a dollar?
