The best SF ever

[scotspine]

ah dark star - garcia's finest moment [ and mesa's]

[bored]

Alfred Bester - The Demolished Man

That would be the best SF novel of all time - but The Stars My Destination is even better

[Cyber Controller]

Doctor Who and the Tomb of the Cybermen by Gerry Davies.

[The Master]

I have to disagree, Controller. The Mind of Evil by Terrance Dicks is the epitome of great literature.

[TheDoctor]

I have to disagree, Controller. The Mind of Evil by Terrance Dicks is the epitome of great literature.

Ah yes, I remember this little episode quite well.

The Master, posing as Professor Keller, has created a device he purports will remove the negative impulses from the brains of convicted criminals. The Keller Machine in fact contains an alien mind parasite which turns the convicts into servants of the Master. With their help, the evil Time Lord hijacks a nerve missile, with which he intends to hold a world peace conference hostage.

Needless to say it all ended badly for the goatee'd chap with the receeding hairline. Never trust a man without a full head of hair, thats what I say!

[The Master]

A particularly flattering portrait of your Evil Self, Oh Great Leader, if I may be so bold...

By the way, is that a Bloodhound missile in the background?

I thought so, I look rather cross in that one don't I?

We called it a Thunderbolt missile in the drama documentary, o trusty miniom, but in reality, yes it was a Bloodhound.

Need I remind anyone about my role in Dark Star.

Truely sublime, Sir!

Truely sublime, Sir!

Oranges are far superior to limes!
