Unintended Knightmare references: Ace Lightning
-
It's funny but I don't really go in for fantasy stuff - Km is the massive exception (because it's compulsive and tense viewing, and I've always liked the undercurrent of sci-fi that runs though it such as the fire in Treguard's antechamber being indelibly linked with time, plus the blatant parodies such as Lord Fear's Shell Phone!).
There is an augmented reality drama series on CBBC (I can't remember its name) whose plot consists of some computer-generated baddies in the real world. Their leader is called Lord Fear!
Meh! Someone got there before you! ;D

I remember seeing that when I was working at the Village Hotel! I watched a whole ep and went BAH!
Considering I am anti most modern Children's TV, I actually quite like Ace Lightning. I remember catching the tail-end of an advert for it and hearing Lord Fear mentioned and I got rather excited for obvious reasons. Then I realised that they had "stolen" the name and I dismissed the programme as another dire rip off, but then after a while I decided to give it a go.
I expected to moan the entire way through it, as you do when you are determined to hate something, but it was really rather good. It's not KM and it never will be, but at least if I am really bored at around 4.30pm in the afternoon, there is at least one programme on BBC/ITV that I will watch...hang on...they've revamped Thomas the Tank...make that two! ;D
