HBO look like they mean to make Game of Thrones and make it well. Good news for our American readers. Over here in the United Kingdom we’re still waiting to discover whether anyone will air this. HBO and Sky are closely alied. Hopefully Sky will pick it up. Even though it may break your heart […]

November 20, 2010 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

The 2010 Christmas special from the Matt Smith Doctor is called “A Christmas Carol”. As part of Children in Need 2010 the BBC has aired a special preview. Worth a Geek Native peek too. What do you think? over on YouTube there’s quite a lot of negative comments… but that’s YouTube and negative comments are […]

Caprica’s Alessandra Torresani as slave Leia

November 13, 2010 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

I rather liked Caprica. It wasn’t the fastest paced show and I suspect, a bit like Dollhouse, that was part of the problem – but it was intelligent and engaging. Without a doubt Alessandra Torresani has made a name for herself among geeks. She’s web credible. Torresani stars in Kevin Pereira‘s Capirca. His goal? To […]

Castle does steampunk – Punked

November 8, 2010 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

I don’t mind admitting I’m a Castle fan. Okay, I may have watched the first episode because ithad Nathan Fillion in it – but I just clicked with the show. I think it’s balanced perfectly. It’s really easy watching and often my first choice of record TV when I get back home after one of […]

Star Wars ad for Currys and PC World: R2-D2 and original C-3PO

October 24, 2010 by Andrew Girdwood 1 Comment

If, like this geek, you watch British TV then you may have seen the new Currys and PC World ad that features the always cute R2-D2 and C-3PO. If C-3PO sounds an awful lot like the “original” C-3PO then that’s because it is. It’s Anthony Daniels doing the voice. The ad features a website called […]

Locke & Key TV series in the works

October 22, 2010 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Okay, this is an old rumour but it’s still worth a special mention as it involves some very interesting people. Locke & Key is a graphic novel from Gabriel Rodriguez and Joe Hill. If you’ve just said “wait a minute… I know the name Joe Hill” and are trying to remember where you know it […]

Death of the Doctor pictures

October 19, 2010 by Andrew Girdwood 1 Comment

The episode The Sarah Jane Adventures called “Death of the Doctor” is controversial. In it they seem to suggest the Doctor can regenerate as many times as he wants – rather than just 12 times which had been suggested before. Yes, also, there are canon examples of Timelords being given fresh regeneration cycles. BBC Pictures […]

Hollow mask makeup

October 16, 2010 by Andrew Girdwood 2 Comments

Would other Bleach fans agree with me when I suggest this is Hollow inspired makeup? Yeah, sure, we can start to debate if half-a-mask counts as something else but in terms of inspiration – this is Bleach tribute? Or is there another series I need to track down and start watching?
