Well, That’s it.
No more JPC on Thursday mornings. :(
We’re going to miss all the mental antics and tales of strange adventures that always seem to end in a near death experience. Continue Reading
Having returned from our breif Easter Sojurn, it soon became clear that JPC had gone so far beyond the deep end
he was in a completely different pool, five miles down the road! Continue Reading
To those of you who have been following JPC on twitter recently you’ll have probably noticed him going on about something called ‘Project Sacrilige.’ This morning we found out what that was.
Turns out he is trying to write a live action Fireman Sam movie. (Many of you of a certain generation will now be screaming in hatred at your computer screens, considering this to be sacrilige of a childhood favourites.) Though we didn’t get many details on air, we can confirm that the plot ‘goes back to basics, revolving around the story of a man who fights fires.’
The main writing criteria is that it doesn’t end up as ‘Fireman Sam VS Pyro from X Men.’ This was the reason for the main topic of the morning: Kids Cartoons vs Comic Book Characters.
Such suggestions included:
- Postman Pat VS Catwoman
- Charlie Chalk VS The Joker from Batman
- Wolverine VS The Poddington Peas
Further suggestions since we went off air have included:
- Thomas the Tank Engine VS Magneto
- Thomas the Tank Engine VS The Juggernaut
- Pingu VS The Incredible Hulk
To coincincide with the launch of the New Series of Dr Who, we also had a run down of our best dr who stories from each doctor.
- The Dalek Invasion of Earth
- Tomb of the Cybermen (Second Place: The Mind Robber )
- Inferno
- Genesis of the Daleks (Second Place: City of Death, Special Mentions: The Talons of Weng Chiang, Brain of Morbius, Stones of Blood (because it mentions Bangor University Archaeology Department)) Androids of Tara, Horror of Fang Rock)
- Mawdryn Undead- (Special Mentions: The Visitation and The Awakening)
- Trial of a Timelord (Segment 2: Mindwarp AKA: Brian Blessed doing what Brian Blessed does best for 90 Minutes!): Dishonourable Mention- Colin Baker’s Costume!)
- JPC’s Favourite, The Curse of Fenric- (Special Mentions: Survival, The Greatest show in the Galaxy, Remembrance of the Daleks)
- Only one to Choose from here- The Movie!- (Dishonourable Mention: ‘I’m half human On my mother’s side (I mean, WTF?))
- The Empty Child/The Doctor Dances-
- The Waters of Mars-(Special Mention: Tennants Performance)
- The Eleventh Hour- (Special Mention: Everything So Far!)
The next Series (Starting 23rd April) looks to be fantastic and we reckon it might just knock Fenric off it’s pedastal as JPC’s all time favourite.
Only Time will tell. (Ha Ha, Get it?)
See you after easter guys- The Thursday Team.
Firstly we have good news and bad news.
The Bad news first- Unfortunately creating this has been a tougher challenge than we thought. Because of this, we have had to cut the planned three episodes down to one due to time constraints and our remaining budget.
However, the good news is that the majority of recording on the remaining episode has been completed (which includes sfx) and what we have so far is already in the editing suite and being prepared for our premier in may. Even writer and director JPC has stepped in to lend his vocal talents, just so we can get this all done and dusted on time.
Already the music has been preliminary selected, both incidental and Ad breaks and includes some brilliant stuff from Muse, The Jam, Simple Plan, Slade, Gustav Holst as well as something in there for the real jazz nerds to pick up on as well! All is coming together nicely to create what will surely be an astonishing audio experience like nothing you’ve heard on Storm FM Before!
And just to tantalize some more, here are some photos from our production recordings so far.
