Interesting news...

Sky are currently evaluating how useful it would be for them to add Faze TV to their basic package and the channel is looking for people to let Sky know what they think.

A quote from the company: "Sky seem to believe that there are already lots of gay programmes on TV." I'm not sure where they're getting that idea from, but I guess it depends on what your definition of 'gay' is! :P

Anyway, if you're a Sky viewer and would like to see a gay channel added to the basic package for viewers in the UK, the email address for channel feedback is viewerr@bskyb.com and the telephone number is 0870 606 6663.

From fannish5:

Your five favorite pieces of fannish memorabilia (in no particular order)

1. My Leah Rosenthal original cartoon of Daniel Jackson in pink bunny pyjamas looking rather cross. ;)

2. My Obi-Wan and Darth Maul beanies.

3. My original 1960's Illya Kuryakin action figure.

4. My complete set of Wild Wild West (the tv series, not the movie!) trading cards, including all the autograph cards and the extra set with the James West costume card. I like to imagine my small piece of material was from somewhere over that magnificent arse of his. ;)

5. My complete set of the US and UK Man from UNCLE paperbacks (including the well-thumbed copy of The Assassination Affair where both Napoleon and Illya get whumped within an inch of their lives!).

I'm not a great memorabilia collector really, but I like what I like. And yes, I am a completist. ;)
