compressed for viewing on CD and have now been compressed
again to stream across the Internet so the quality isn't
wonderful....
The video that the World thought had been
lost.... well, bad luck, folks, it's been found again!
Yes, this was our fabulously wonderful pop video Heavy
Metal tribute to Village People. Accompanied by my trusty
companion and one-time Features Editor, Mary Branscombe
(seen here in hard hat and whiskers), we recreated all
that was best about the 1970s music scene. This was for
yet another video on a cover disc back in the Golden Age
of PC Plus magazine. Don't ask what it was all about. The
'justification' for this video was far too trivial to go
into now. Just sit back, turn up the speakers to full volume
(especially if you are in the office!) and enjoy!!!!

I love The Avengers -
the wonderful '60s TV show starring Patrick Macnee as John
Steed and Diana Rigg as Mrs Peel. When I had the chance
to review some script-writing software, Collaborator and
Dramatica, I decided to write an Avengers-type script based
loosely on The Hound of The Baskervilles. Here
is an edited version with most of the software reviews
cut out (well, they would be way out of date now). What's
left is my co-star, Mary Branscombe, kicking the living
daylights out of me - with extra bonus of my late lamented
dog, Bran, starring as The Hound. Pah! Ralph Fiennes and
Uma Thurman, eat your hearts out!

My director, Wendy, and I happened to be in Las Vegas
for the computer show, Comdex. Just a hundred or so miles
away from Vegas, in the middle of the Nevada Desert, is
the famous Area 51 military base, where the US Government
has been rumoured to be developing technologies based
on crashed UFOs. Naturally, we had to go and see for ourselves...
