It's Crossover Time Again

One of the programme items I didn't end up going to at Redemption 07 was "What Would Blake's 7 Be Like Not Set In Space?" On the basis of Ben Jeapes' description of his panel's suggestion it sounds like I missed out! I can't hep but imagine this as a steampunk-themed RPG scenario...

Personally, I think the US version of Life on Mars should eschew the cop-show format; inspired by the fact that there was a West Wing episode entitled 'Life on Mars', I want to see the spin-off where Josh Lyman is knocked over on Pennsylvania Avenue and wakes up in 1973 to find himself working for Richard Nixon. Bonus marks would be awarded for featuring guest appearances by an economics professor called Barlett and a Vietnam-veteran aerospace executive called McGarry.

I'd watch that ...

The Radio Times has irresponsibly suggested that they should bring back Blake's 7 with Colin Firth as Blake and Rufus Sewell as Avon - so that was my work attention span gone for the morning...

Interesting concept, but I thought it was McGarity. Of course, I didn't keep up much after the second season.

It's definitely Leo McGarry, but on checking I see that it's 'Bartlet' not 'Bartlett' (and definitely not 'Barlett').

Some West Wing addict I am...
