SKY IS COMING OUT ON DVD. YES! ZOMG and suchlike. Need I say more?
Eps 3 and 7 are non-archival... from the same source as the raretelevision.com rip, do we think? I'll be very interested to see what the quality's like, in any case.
For the uninitiated: we're talking Bob Baker and Dave Martin - Claws of Axos & The Mutants, dig? Fucking hallucinogenically insane ecofreako space skiffy thing, absolutely perfect, full of holes, works on some bizarre intuitive level while making absolutely no sense whatsoever. And hey, the whole plants thing gave me nightmares for years :) Slashy as fuck if you've a mind to see it, worth it for the Who links and just plain being weird if you don't. Brilliant and WTF in equal parts. Except for part 7 which is probably only comprehensible to the sort of unknowably alien intelligences attributed to the 'timeships' in The Book of the War. Or something.
Go on. You know you want to. If only so you can say "get a life, kel" afterwards :) or explain to me what the fuck it actually means
Release date: 1 June.
Other goodies in Network's schedule include Fireball XL5, The Fear, The Adventurer (the Smuggler sequel, not the other one), Mortimer's Will Shakespeare with Tim Curry...
