Simple Minds being astonishingly good on Radio 2 In The Park. Forever amused by the fact they mentioned Nastassja Kinski in Up on the Catwalk because they wanted to meet Nastassja Kinski and thought it might help.

The apocalypse is upon TG Jones in Bath (or WH Smith, as it was before the body snatchers got it). #buymagazines
In brightest day, in blackest night... I'm talking to Lanterns showrunner Chris Mundy about his intriguing new take on Green Lantern in the latest @sfxmagazine.bsky.social
Highlight of today's Bath Book Fair. Sadly just a little beyond my wallet but what a glorious cover...
Shout out to the guy in the Odeon who chose to open a bag of crisps during the siren song in The Odyssey. Your idiocy is truly worthy of legend.
Is there truly any part of Doctor Who history too mundane to be recorded? If you've ever wondered what the press snacks looked like during SFX's location visit to The Zygon Invasion, well, I don't believe you. But here they are, nevertheless.
Currently experiencing thunder and lightning so overwrought it feels like stock footage spliced into a '70s TV horror.
Up, up and away! I’m talking to star Milly Alcock and director Craig Gillespie about bringing Supergirl back to the big screen. Find their flight plan in the latest issue of @sfxmagazine.bsky.social

So sad to hear of the passing of Anthony Head. Always so supportive of the magazine and, living in Bath, a frequent visitor to the @sfxmagazine.bsky.social office and photo studio. Fabulous actor and a charming, approachable man who wore his fame lightly.
Mr Spielberg and co at last night's Disclosure Day premiere in London. What a thrill to be in that room.
Early, bruising rejection by the film industry...
Watch the skies! I’m talking to screenwriter David Koepp about Spielberg’s new UFO thriller Disclosure Day in the latest issue of SFX. Get it before the authorities do…

A treat to hear @samiraahmeduk.bsky.social talk about A Hard Day's Night and all matters Fab today. A thoroughly fascinating, entertaining Q&A as part of the Bath Literature Festival. Her BFI book on the movie comes highly recommended by this Beatlemaniac.
Wonder if the photo-bombers in the background ever realised they ended up in the title sequence...
What a treat to see this beauty back on the big screen last night - first time for me since 1978...
Spider-Noir brilliantly reimagines Spider-Man as a 1930s private eye with Nic Cage spinning the webs. I walk the mean, sticky streets with showrunner Oren Uziel in the latest issue of @sfxmagazine.bsky.social

No ageing Gen X thrill quite like buying a brand new issue of Action... Alas I didn't have enough left over for a Sherbert Dab.
Happy 75th birthday to the brilliant Peter Davison. I interviewed him in 2016 and he told me why Patrick Troughton was one of his heroes, vegetable patch and all...
This was fun to dive into: I'm talking to the team behind the proposed Blake's 7 reboot in the latest issue of @sfxmagazine.bsky.social Available now in all Federation-free star systems...

Doing some research into Close Encounters of the Third Kind and just unearthed a Spielberg interview from a 1978 issue of Cinefantastique. Fascinating that he seemed absolutely committed to a sequel at that point…
45 years ago today the Fourth Doctor gave way to the Fifth. I remember reading in the paper that morning that Tom Baker would simply vanish, which killed any excitement I had for a glimpse of the new guy. So imagine the sheer thrill of seeing Mr Davison’s face in the closing moments after all…
