The first BF Survivors episode is bloomin' grim. Comes as a shock after all those telly episodes about farming.

It's good though. That first box is excellent.

The Survivors 'Ghost and Demons' audiobook is well done though too grim for me due to horrendous scenes of violence.

There's nowt wrong with it. It's a good audiobook. Just a tad too graphic in places for my tastes.

Oh ho ho. You ain't heard nothin' yet. -Ralph I’d say three out of five. One of the characters and subplots could’ve been excised and that time used to flesh out some other characters, but on the whole, I enjoyed it.

With the release of this year's DW Short Trips freebie, my BF account page now shows...900 available downloads.
I don't have a problem.

Catching up on some BF series. The Prisoner volume 3 does actually have an ending. I thought I had got a handle on what it was all about until the last 10 minutes. More satisfying end than the TV show though.

Survivors 3.1 the other night. My goodness. That ending is going to stay with me for a long time.
Still no farming though.

Survivors 3.4. Blimey. That was tense.
This series makes very good use of the 4-episodes-a-series format, I must say. Not an ounce of fat and the running time is used to really flesh out the characters and situations.
It's from another era, though, as BF seem to have moved from a 4-episode box set format due to a 3-episode box format format for most of their lines.

Nearly every piece of art should always have a defender.

Survivors 5: Not quite as gripping but still good with a proper "I can't believe they did that" moment in episode 1.

I find it hilarious that there is an option for the buyer to order a gift card...for themselves.
I...don't understand.

So that on some unspecified rainy day in the future, you can gift yourself an already paid for morsel of audio excitement. It'd be like a free play! Gifted to you from benevolent and kindly past Ralph.

Do not tell benevolent Ralph he makes no sense. He wouldn't take it well.
In other news, I see Russell T has been enticed back to write a Dark Season story and has managed to get Kate Winslet to take part!
