Looks like a new type of Dooyoo!

Don't see what's in it for them unless it is data and target advertising. In my experience these things are always way more effort than they are worth but keep us posted!

Good luck Phil! I don't have an iPhone but my experience is from every Apple upgrade that your imported music is always the first victim. Hopefully the cloud will mean this is less of a problem in the future but they are keen that your music is bought from them and then alone. Another major hassle is it losing all your track names so you have to type them individually.

To early to give specific details but we have Toby Jones as Anne Robinson, Jason Bateman as my cardiologist (he's a ringer!) and Sandra Bullock as the beautiful Irene.Season 1 Arc is to be 'To create a Beast' with 'Quizzing : First Class - the Weakest 15' followed by 'My Dinners with Irene' and a left field finale of 'The Jogging Dead'. Very excited.

Great effort from everyone this year - especially megabus' epic - It's what 'Helter Skelter could have been! Looking forward to tomorrow's odds and sods. Thanks as always to Pete for putting it all together.

I thought it was pretty good - a few more chances with the storyline would have helped as it looked like they chopped up the first three films and made this out of random pieces. Another [spoiler]Death Star[/spoiler][spoiler] in all but name - c'mon![/spoiler]

I was archiving my Progs for the year and couldn't find this one. Searched the house up and down then realised I'd never received it! Wondered why the previous Dredd wasn't resolved. Does anyone have an email for Denise so I can beg a replacement?

Caught up with the graphics novel one on the bus and really enjoyed - Molch-R has an great enthusiasm for his subject. Wish he'd pressed Mr Richardson more on the Eagle Dan Dare from 1982 - I need this in my life!

Sorry not to have posted here - I have checked the entries every day and enjoyed them all. It is however derelict of me to take the contributors for granted and I apologise. I see on FB that Megabus was considering ending Bad Crop early due to some trolling. I'm amazed that anyone could think that they even have the right to moan about something posted for free at obvious great personal commitment. So well done him on a cracking strip and to all who have contributed so far. My personal contribution of blinking out 'Merry Christmas Drokkers' in Morse code during the '15-1' grand final has been shamefully overlooked but I will try harder next year.

A triumph! I was just a couple of rows back and in touching distance of the great man. The moderator couldn't get a word in as Brian rattled through some well worth but entertaining anecdotes. An earth shattering 'Gordon's Alive' ended his contribution.

The screening of Flash was more enjoyable than I anticipated and a good night was had. Forum attendees were me, Cosh, Tips and Satanist. Beat that Southers!

"Could I get some comic art?"


Get a big blow up of Mickey Mouse - asking permission? squeak squeak!

I had quite a laugh over that whilst doing my dishes!

Buttonman is strong like bull!

Promised the wife a drink a lunch beforehand but should make it for a drink.

Does anyone know the format? Is the Blessed talk moderated or is it questions from the audience? Are these to be posted in advance?

Hope he mentions 'Blackadder' which only got a sentence in his book.

I picked up mine today. Man in the box office going too and he liked my Blessed impression. I pushed it and talked bout Flash appearing in the 'Ted' film but he didn't get the reference and it ended slightly awkwardly.

Me and the wife shall be there. Do you have your tickets or are you picking them up from the box office? I have booked and paid but don't have possession.

I read the great man's book in advance of his appearance - genuinely funny throughout. Gonna be great!
