For your Hallowe’en Pumpkin! Prepare your pumpkin as usual… hollowing out the interior to about 2 cms thickness. Print off the outline of Straker’s face, (this is the same one I used for the cake!) It is best at A5 size or smaller…depending on the size of your pumpkin. Then hold the paper firmly against the pumpkin, and, using a long needle, perforate around the outline so that you end…
Shot in the Dark 4, 5 & 6
Chapter 4 Virgil was leaning casually against the railings overlooking his ‘bird, drinking in the sight of the powerful machine with appreciative eyes. It gave him something of the chills when he looked down on her like this, taking in the full scale of the giant green Thunderbird, knowing that he had complete control of her whenever she was in the air.

Captain Scarlet and the Mysterons: Crisis 5
Nurse Daniels busied about her tasks, a bemused Captain Scarlet watching her. Since he had little idea about what she was doing, he agreed with any suggestions she made.

One thing that was clear, though, was…

Alec Freeman: Identified!
(aka: The Memetic Mutation of Alec Freeman!) Alec Freeman has had a pretty rough deal at the hands of authors in the past. A considerable amount of the fanfic that has been written seems to have dragged the character of Freeman away from the man who was portrayed by George Sewell, and more often than not all that we are left with is a thin and almost comical shadow of…
