John's Roundup - 21/10/04
Roundup. No time to explain. Intelligence compressed. Reduced lifespan. Two point three five remaining.
I think we've experienced this moment in time before, sir...
- Thomas Evans has unearthed something very interesting on Amazon.co.uk about the Corgi models. Both Red Dwarf, Starbug, and the twinpack give the following: "Availability: usually dispatched within 1 to 2 weeks." Not quite the 1 or 2 days usually given, but rather better than the 30th November 2004 that RDSUK gives. A mistake? Quite possibly; but the other interesting thing that is less likely to be a mistake is that the Red Dwarf model now comes with the Lister figure, and the Starbug with the Rimmer one. Previously, it was only mentioned you'd get the figures in the twinpack, so this is excellent news.
- Also from Thomas is the unbelievable news that Play have dropped the price of the V Gift Set from £17.99 to £14.99. (RDSUK still list it at £18.74.) This is only £2 more expensive than the vanilla V release; the Starbug model alone is worth about £5. THE JOYS OF A CAPITALIST SOCIETY.
- Speaking of Play, some random twat named, oooh, Thomas Evans, also pointed out that they appear not to know the meaning of the phrase 'Just The Shows'. I suggest we all spell it out to them using vulgar, threatening, and obscene language via the mistake link at the bottom of the page.
- Andrew Dowds aka Rad has informed us that, as we predicted, a Dwarfer has signed up for Memorabilia. Specifically, Norman Lovett is showing up at the NEC Birmingham on 27th-28th November. His website informs "don't you dare ask me about the Red Dwarf film". Why not show up with a megaphone and the appropriate placards?
- Michelle Mills sent us this: Hattie being confronted by a cock. For more of that, see this. (I'm implying Chris Evans is a cock, see?)
- More Fuchal updates! Firstly, for a limited period only, the 1993 Nangy-nongy. Truely excerable. Not a patch on the 1983 version. Secondly, there's loads of interesting stuff about DVD rankings on Amazon. Hmmm.. interIreallyshouldcomeupwithsomedifferentquotesargh.
And finally, a message from Ian: "By the way, I can't cunting access fucking FTP at this twatting university, due to a shitting firewall."
