Let's just say certain members of this forum didn't get on with Star Cops when we saw it at mine a few years back. We'll leave it at that..... But they're wrong!

The Gestalt are correct in their assessment of Star Cops.

Star Cops is unspeakably awful. I have yet to make it through a whole episode!

No no no, you're thinking of Moonbase 3. Star Cops is simply the finest hard SF series the BBC have ever made.
Not that it has an awful lot of competition to be fair.

Moonbase 3 is alright. Star Cops...I can't understand how that was seen fit to transmit!

Whaaat? really? I must dig out my Moonbase 3 VHS tapes and have another look. That's a series I've never managed to get through a whole episode of, even if it was penned by the mighty Dicks.
I can't believe the lack of love for Star Cops. I am deeply saddened. It's great!

Moonbase 3 is no lost classic and the direction is sub-par but it has a certain charm. DVD is out of print but it lurks on youtube.

I really like the Star Cops theme, what I've seen doesnt do much for me, but I really want to see the Graeme Harper episodes

We'll watch them the next time you come to Swindon Matt.... And then I'll show you quite how pish Moonbase 3 is. I have the DVDs and have never made it past episode 1!

Somewhere on this forum is the end of the tale of me and Moonbase 3. I never did find the tapes, I think they're in the lofft somewhere but I can't find them, but the DVD dropped below twenty quid on Amazon sometime last year and I bought that. I really liked it. As an adult. Too slow watching it as a teenager, but now, Moonbase 3 is okay by me.

This happened on the same day the look of the new Doctor Who was revealed as well as the announcement of a new Star Wars film trilogy and a Star Wars live action TV show. The return of fucking Star Cops at the same time must be the universe balancing things out.
Star Cops!
Fuck sakes.
At least the song is gone.
Fucking Star Cops.
BAD PHIL!!!

That's amazing. I'd have thought that too niche even for Big Finish.
How absolutely marvellous!

Having seen David Calder, Lynda Newton & Trevor Cooper are involved, I'm tempted to try this.
