Better to Travel Hopefully than...Watch The Sensorites

[SiHart]

Yes folks, that most romantic of stories, The Sensorites will be coming to DVD on Feb 14th 2012. Buy your loved one a copy!

[Lissa]

Awesome - I'm so going to drop hints. I've nearly got her reading "Adventures into Space" so she almost knows who Butch, Carol and the man John are.

[Si Hunt]

This is an appropriate release for a story which features a full on love story between The First Elder and the City Administrator.

What, didn't you stop those Senso-erotic overtones?

Si.

[SiHart]

What, didn't you spot those Senso-erotic overtones?

Oh, I had not thought of that...

[Rob McCow]

Love affairs are incredibly hard to manage for a race that can't tell one person from another unless they're wearing a sash.

This leads to the possibility of a Sensorite nudist beach where no-one can remember who they are or who anyone else is and new identities are given out depending on who's clothes you pick up on the way out.

[Andrew Curnow]

Nothing says "kiss me" like gigantic feet.

[Antony Cox]

Stay back, Andrew - I've got size 12's!

[Si Hunt]

Well you ought to see the size of mine.

Si.

[Dave Tudor]

I shall look forward to cuddling up with the missus, Ian and Barbara, and John and Carol next Valentine's Day.

[Larry]

oh well I guess they had to release this snooz fest sooner or later..

[Dirk Gently]

They released it on Valentines day just so people would go to bed early.

[Rob McCow]

It reminds me of that old Lou Reed song, 'Sensorite of Love'. I'm sure a full set of lyrics will be turning up for that soon!

[Dave Tudor]

" I've been told that you've been bold
With Carol, Maitland and John."

(My aim is to mention Carol and John in every post I make on this thread.)

[Stuart Wallis]

Nothing says "kiss me" like gigantic feet.

Well you know what they say about big feet!





Yes, big boots...

[Rob McCow]

Well you know what they say about big feet!

You'll never be a dancer!

[Andrew Curnow]

Surely that should be, Dammit Butch I'm a mineralogist not a dancer...

Sounds VERY Babylon 5.

Stay back, Andrew - I've got size 12's!

PHWOAR!

[Si Hunt]

I'm not won over by that cover. Overall I prefer montages to an artificially constructed "scene" and Hartnell looks so fake that he might be 100% CGI. And artistically, shouldn't he be flipped and examining the Sensorite rather than the edge of the DVD cover.

Si.

[Stuart Wallis]

I'm fairlu sure the character with his hand on Susan's shoulder is Dirty Old Sensorite.

[Dave Tudor]

He certainly seems an unusually, er, 'hairy' Sensorite...

Not a particularly good cover. It doesn't even feature Carol or John.

[Stuart Wallis]

The Man John was unavailable, as he is currently being held by the Monsterdons.

[Anthony Williams]
