Sidewinder FTMFW!!


What? Is that a challenge?!

Look, the Sidewinder (great though it is) can't even walk properly! Clicky

Now compare that to the power of the Crablogger: Clicky It's got giant claws; a giant chainsaw, it's huge, it's heading for a dam and it's packed with nuclear fuel.

I think I know which way the psychic octopus would go with this. :P


The Sidewinder would've been fine, if it wasn't for that bloody great hole in the ground! The terrain it can move across is far more varied and anything that involves an ep where the mole is used gets extra kudos straight away.

Hmm.. that's probably my favourite Anderson series, TBH. Just the right balance of mad future tech, actual decent plotlines, a touch of cold war paranoia and not too much psychedelic nutcasery (which rather ruined Space 1999 IMO).

If one is diving so close to the limits that +/- 1% will make a difference then the error has already been made.

My wife thought that I was making these two up- Chorlton and the Wheelies and Kloppa Castle.

I have to admit that I don't remember much about Kloppa Castle, apart from the fact that they were enemies that were friendly- go figure- but Chorlton was brilliant.

I thought (at the time) that Terrahawks was great, but it was a long time ago.

Does anyone remember that they used to have a decent drama show on a Sunday afternoon- strangely enough at lunchtime? There was Chopper Squad, which I think was Australian surf rescue, but for one or two series, they had a US American show called 240 Robert.

240 Robert was the call sign of a paramedic sheriff unit somewhere out in the wilds of the United States. The one thing that I recall was that I loved the theme tune.

Chorlton was absolutely ace. Kloppa Castle … now that one takes me back. (8+)

I recall Chopper Squad and Chorlton, but not Kloppa.
