CLASSIC IMAGE: DO I KNOW YOU?


He may not be Starbuck and he may be on Earth rather than in space, but THE A-TEAM's ever adaptable Templeton "Faceman" Peck certainly recognises the silver armoured machine man walking around the Hollywood film studio. Yes, its the great nostalgia image from the hit five-year running Stephen J. Cannell and Frank Lupo created action series made at the same UNIVERSAL home as GALACTICA, and which truly made Dirk Benedict an international name after his prior success playing Starbuck.


THE A-TEAM is now available in its entirety in super remastered UK Blu-ray from FABULOUS FILMS/UNIVERSAL, and its as enjoyably bonkers, action-packed and lively now as it was when it first aired. I recommend it with my Nostalgia Hat firmly placed!

CLASSIC IMAGE: READY FOR THE MISSION!


A top model perhaps best known for her work on the US soap DYNASTY, the truly gorgeous Leann Hunley gets ready for blast off in her Colonial Viper, in a scene from Lost Planet of the Gods Part One. Miss Hunley would reappear as the same character later in the season, with the episode The Man With Nine Lives.

CLASSIC IMAGE: "OH FRACK!"


Someday's you miss one, and Starbuck's experiencing that frustration whilst rushing to join his friends in the escape elevator to the Carillon Casino, after failing to hit a Cylon warrior, in this great still from Saga of a Star World.

CLASSIC IMAGE: THE MYSTERIES OF KOBOL!


Apollo, Serina and Adama continue their exploration of the lost homeworld of Kobol- where life originally sprung- in a scene from Lost Planet of the Gods Part Two, of which a small second unit went out and filmed scenes in Egypt specially for the story, with local people playing the three characters- Serina actually played by a young boy!

GALACTICA 1980: CONQUEST OF THE EARTH (UK STYLE!)


It sure looks like Galactican warriors Troy and Dillion are on their own as the Cylon attack on Earth, 1980, begins, in the exciting UK movie poster art for CONQUEST OF THE EARTH eventually used for the CIC Video rental release back in the day. Great art- I just wish the cobbled together from three episodes "movie" had ultimately been better!
