The Mackem and the Manc: Space: 1999 podcast @mancmakempod

To everything that might have been... to everything that might yet be. The last podcast. Part 2 of our wrap up begins with paying tribute to the passing of Clifton Jones, so soon after Prentis Hancock leaving us. #Space1999 creators.spotify.com/pod/show/mancm…

To everything that might have been... to everything that might yet be. The last podcast. With a ting of sadness we wrap out what remains of the Space: 1999 universe, starting with the two Year 2 movies. #Space1999 creators.spotify.com/pod/show/mancm…

Today is Nick Tate's birthday, so for fun (and because everyone loves dinosaurs) we'll share the trailer for Jurassic Park, to which Nick added his voiceover. In a world.... youtube.com/watch?v=QWBKEm… #space1999 #nicktate

The second of our two bonus pods see us pay tribute to the best moustache in showbizness, Prentis Hancock, Then we watch the fan edit God's Will - a great vision by Eric Bernard who spent years re-tooling the episode of War Games. #Space1999 creators.spotify.com/pod/show/mancm…

Katie and I are upset to hear of the passing of Clifton Jones, so soon after Prentis' departure. His outstanding contribution as the grumpy but affable David "Computer" Kano was a real highlight of Season 1 of #Space1999. Godspeed Clifton.

Our first of our three bonus pods sees us visit Into Infinity/Day After Tomorrow - so good they named it twice. Filmed between Year 1 and 2, this is an almost-Space 1999 episode, sharing a lot of the cast and crew. #Space1999 creators.spotify.com/pod/show/mancm…

Katie and I are gutted to learn of the passing of Prentis Hancock - aka Paul Morrow from Space: 1999. The beating heart of the show, Paul &his moustache always grounded the crew of moonbase alpha whilst the madness ensued all around him. Rest in Peace Prentis & godspeed. Colin.

Oh no! It's the final episode of the show (but not of the podcast - rest assured). The Dorcons is one of the better year 2's although you have to forgive the missing ceilings and sparse set decorations. The budget really had been blown. #Space1999 creators.spotify.com/pod/show/mancm…

As the most famous Mackem on the internet, Katie starts the pod celebrating some amazing Sunderland-related news. Then we quickly move on to the penultimate episode of Year 2, The Immunity Syndrome. #Space1999 creators.spotify.com/pod/show/mancm…

We'd like to congratulate Sunderland AFC for their promotion to the Premier League. Just like us, they are putting Mackems on the map.

So after there being no Spectre in the Seance Spectre, there's no Devil in the Devil's Planet. What you do get though is whip-wielding red lycra clad BDSM statuesque women running a dodgy prison. #Space1999 creators.spotify.com/pod/show/mancm…

As a special birthday podcast treat to Katie, Colin asked Kathryn Leigh Scott - one of the stars of the Space: 1999 episode "Dorzak" - to record a little message for her. Link to the full video: youtu.be/oBdc_Z1ZiNk #space1999 podcast: creators.spotify.com/pod/show/mancm…

Ok let's get it out of the way. There isn't a spectre or ghost and there's barely a seance. There, done. Katie was very disappointed to hear that. There is the lovely Carolyn Seymour though, who is proper sci-fi royalty. #Space1999 creators.spotify.com/pod/show/mancm…

Somehow the podcast is on YouTube. I think we need Computer Kano to show us how to do it next time. youtube.com/@mancmakempodc… #space1999

Oh yes it's the two parter as a two hour podcast. Will our stamina hold out? Colin's bladder? Katie's wine supply? Who knows - actually we do as we've just published the episode. We only had one domestic. I think. #Space1999 creators.spotify.com/pod/show/mancm…

So we've The Troubled Spirit's slightly lesser cousin as a young blonde with a tight perm can do magic tricks, turn Maya into a caterpillar and force John into telling us that he loves us all. #Space1999 creators.spotify.com/pod/show/mancm…

We think this is the funniest episode we've done yet, but then again not every episode has pink gimp masks and Maya turning into every creature you could imagine (and some you haven't). So they are rich seams to mine. #Space1999 creators.spotify.com/pod/show/mancm…

The 2nd of the Freddie episodes sees Darth Vader invade Moonbase Alpha, John and Helena go off on holiday to Monaco and Dave Prowse takes a fire extinguisher in the nether region. Yes boys and girls, it's a Freddie Special. #Space1999 creators.spotify.com/pod/show/mancm…

Everyone say in a low chanting voice. Imhotep! Imhotep! It's the tiny spangly shorts episode of Space: 1999 and a rubbish anti-matter science one to boot. But first we go through the husbands of our notable guest star. #Space1999 creators.spotify.com/pod/show/mancm…

It's the bad parting episode! 50 minutes of plot unravelled by John having his parting on the wrong side. Link to AI revival (you'll have to join the group) - facebook.com/share/v/18JMfz… #Space1999 creators.spotify.com/pod/show/mancm…
