Star Trek :

TNG, DS9, Voyager

I'm not a fan of the original Star Trek, but I do like the other 3. The Next Generation and Deep Space 9 are both repeating on BBC2 (usually at 6pm Wed, and 6pm Thursday respectively), and Voyager is usually on during the Sunday (but, to my annoyance, is usually cancelled due to sport) around the 6 - 7pm time. The latest news on the episodes of any of the series can be found on the links to the webpages.

Latest News: Voyager crew may be losing their captain....

Favourite characters:

TNG: Riker

DS9: Quark

Voyager: The Doc or Tom Paris

Red Dwarf This is probably the most successful sci-fi comedy series ever. Having just finished series 8 with "The End? Not smegging likely" we can certainly look forward to series 9. If you've never actually watched Red Dwarf then you're quite insane......

Favourite character: Lister

Blackadder Another superb brittish comedy series, each series being set in a different time era. My personal favourite is the WW2 series. Even though we can only watch repeats now, it can still get you laughing.

Favourite character: Baldrick

Drop the Dead Donkey Finished now, but hopefully we can look forward to the repeats sometime soon. This comedy show was set around a newscasting station (which would deal with the actual events happening within the week) with a whole load of quirky characters. Very funny.

Favourite character: George

Babylon 5 Yet another good sci-fi series come to an end. Probably the next best series to Star Trek, if not better (shock horror) that has a very good plot, and the special effects are very well done. Each episode of B5 is designed (in my opinion) to build up each character, so that the viewer can get the idea of what they're like, and a plot slowly evolves during the episodes. My favourite episode is with the two construction workers working throughout the station (while it's under threat) discussing and bumping into the main characters of the series, a top episode....

Favourite character: De'lenn (not sure on spelling)

The Last Train

Sorry, it's yet another program that has finished. Basically the plot behind this was that there was a meteorite heading for Earth, it hit, lots of people died, except for a few, in particular a group of people in a train. Well, basically they get cryogenically frozen, and wake up quite a few years later and try and work their way to a possible military bunker, etc, etc. It'll probably get repeated sometime in the future, just make sure you watch it as it's pretty good.

Favourite character: None really......
