  1. So something I've been thinking of doing for a bit of fun is a quiz based on my back catalogue of releases, I'll put a section from the machine in question, first person to get it right gets the point. I'll put another up once it's guessed correctly and keep track of scores.

    Easy one to start the ball rolling....

  2. I streamed it via an app and not netflix so obviously missed out on the interactive part, I could tell the bits that were, was like watching over someones shoulder watching them make choices (that's a bit freaky, considering the concept of the show).

    As I was watching the end on the bus I wondered if some geek would try to record it and load into a speccy, thanks for clearing that up Reg. :mess_291: 

  3. So who watched this over xmas?

    Started off promising, 30 mins in got really good but ended too repetative, too long and too fucked up.

    Still some great retro stuff in there, anyone under 30 must of been lost when he was listening to spectrum load tapes on his walkman on the bus :)

    I don't think I have ever played That's Life. Seeing that picture from Pook above, I think it's safe to say, that you won't mind being upstaged on this part of the thread.

    Fair point, was never my intention, just got excited for something I'd completely forgotten about, sorry Choppers.

  5. Omg yes 'the house that bled to death', children's party scene was shocking back then, never get away with that with kid actors today. Seem to remember a vampire episode with Diana Doors also.

    The scariest thing I remember as a kid was an episode of 'armchair thriller' called 'quiet as a nun' where a nun with no face was killing kids, nightmares for weeks! Amazed my parents let me watch it considering I went to a catholic primary school where a number of teachers were nuns.

    John Pertwee was a great Dr but Tom Baker was my personal favorite and enemy it has got to be the super kick arse Daleks   

    Yeah Baker for me too during my childhood, although Tennant did well during in the new series. As for enemies I loved the rastan robot from the 5 doctors, which is my favourite episode (well mini movie really) which ironically didn't feature Baker.

    I had high hopes of the newest series after Capaldi as I nearly gave up, but this new series is just a bunch of PC babies tosh!

  7. Wow I had a firefox, thought it was the bollocks back then. 

    I remember having a small white handheld, sure it was by granstand but had a nintendo feel to it, was based on a dracula theme where you had to reach the top of various floors and staircases whilst dodging baddies, think castlevania meets donkey kong.

    Wow...where to begin with classic TV shows. 

    Well when I was young the shows I loved to watch were...

    Knightrider

    The A-Team

    Streethawk

    Airwolf

    The littlest Hobo

    Life and Times of Grizzly Adams

    The Incredible Hulk

    CHiPS

    Star Fleet (I always loved it when they built the robot out of the 3 spaceships, and Lolled so hard when they punched the evil leader in the face with it!)

    The Equalizer

    Buck Rogers in the 25th Century

    Battlestar Galactica

    The six million dollar man

    The list could go on and on but these are a few of the shows I loved back in the day when TV wasn't full of crap reality shows or "talent" shows. 

    Quality list, you can add Automan & Manimal too.

  9. Oh I had one of those blue konix ones, loved it. Played Bruce Lee for hours on it. Nintendo so ripped it off with the nunchuck.

    Don't know how many quickshot 2s I went through playing decathlon. Anyone else used to hold it upside down by the base and shake the b'jesus out of it while running?
