Hi Martin, if you get the chance, I'd recommend "Dear Doctor" (Season 1 Episode 13 of Enterprise). There are some great episodes in every incarnation of Start Trek...

Thanks Mike, I shall put that on the list of things to watch. Blakes 7 is first, want to see if it's as good as I remember.

Martin - I think you may find that 'Blakes 7' whilst still great fun has dated somewhat but Servalan is a wonderful
character as is Avon (Paul Darrow) they actually outshone Blake in my eyes.

As for 'Enterprise' I'm surprised it made a bad impression as that PILOT episode I would suggest is the BEST pilot
episode of any of the Star Trek's, clever, fast moving and it set things up wonderfully, unfortunately they would not
return to themes of this pilot episode for ages and began filming many episodes involving underground scenarios
and CAVES!!!
I'm glad I stuck with it as it got far far better with later seasons...I always forget the name of the Double Episode
(can anyone help?) but it involved the Enterprise crew ending up in the 'Mirror' Universe and that was as good
as anything Trek has done, it included an appearance of the original Enterprise.
This 2 parter was on YouTube and in HD but it's probably no longer there, if it is I would urge you to hunt it down as
it's GREAT FUN!

Got so much to watch and catch up on now! At the moment I am halfway through the film Europa Report, so far so good.

Finished watching Europa Report. This is where a team of astronauts go to Europa to send a probe under the ice to see what's there.

Was an ok film and worth watching if you have a couple of hours to kill. Wouldn't go out of your way to see it mind.

Thanks Martin. I was thinking of watching it but won't now.

Minnaloushe creeps through the grass,
From moonlit place to place,
The sacred moon overhead,
Has taken a new phase.
