ROBOTS - A review

Grovel, the graphic novel news and reviews website, has posted a rather glowing review of Accent UK's ROBOTS, which you can read here.

I keep saying this to... well, anyone who'll listen to me, frankly, but it was a pleasure and a privilege to be a part of ROBOTS. It truly is an amazing book, and well worth a place in anyone's collection.

Remember the book is still available directly from Accent UK or Forbidden Planet International.

Oliver Postgate - A tribute

Charlie Brooker's Screenwipe had a beautiful tribute to the late Oliver Postgate during it's last episode, and here it is to enjoy...

RIP Oliver Postgate

I was sorry to hear of the passing of Oliver Postage earlier today.

His work in children's television entertained me no end when I was a kid, and I still have fond memories of Bagpuss and Ivor The Engine to this day. They were definitely in a class of their own, and I doubt we'll ever see anything like them again.

Thanks for the memories, Oliver.
