Reminds me of quite a few years ago when my Nephew was over for a visit from Canada, their Son was about 10/11,I put the Simpsons on the TV for him to watch, he was sitting all wide eyed watching when his Mom said, “sorry but he’s not allowed to watch this”.
Michael Sheard also featured in the epic Space 1999 episode Dragon’s Domain. Plus a few dr who episodes - pyramids of Mars for instance. Great actor.
That actually sounds like a conversation Homer and Ned Flanders would have on The Simpsons.
Dragon’s domain episode used to be available on YT but looks like it’s available on apple or prime now. Worth a watch.
Space 1999 was originally going to be UFO series 2 called UFO 1999 then that got cancelled so it became space 1999.
I still say 'Now then now then' in his voice as it's just something I did for years. Tried to stop after the revelations but it still comes out now and again.
Theroux was taken in. Ended up being mates.
No. His book goes into it in detail.
The TV doc he made contradicts that. Sav comes to his house and sits in the garden drinking tea. Theroux's narration says they became friends after the initial doc.
I'm currently listening to the audiobook - on the second TV doc right now. Friends is too far - but also a bit near the mark. He was clearly suspicious of him but did totally miss the depth of his depravity. It's an interesting listen and Theroux doesn't spare himself.
The finale was excellent.
