COMING SOON : High Tech House of Horrors

COMING SOON

WELCOME TO PARADISE - HIGH TECH HOUSE OF HORRORS

OUT IN MARCH 2017

Have you ever wondered why your toaster maybe trying to kill you? or why your washing machine is on the blink? why the cleaners are so keen to take you to the cleaners? All these and more are answered in High Tech House of Horrors.

Why do this story? - I have always liked the idea of a house that is technology based and could possibly turn against you and try to kill you. It's a very strong science fiction idea. With aggressive cookers and homicidal Hoovers. Very similar to what the idea behind Paradise Towers was but a little bit different in the sense that this is an actual house that is the threat and it's not set in a block of flats. It's a holiday resort gone wrong, which has closed down due to the disappearance of a missing person, and the doctor gets caught up in the mystery of it all when Pip goes missing. 

  

What to expect? - What to expect from this? Well, technology which is trying to kill people for the purpose of which you'll have t find out later.

Who is writing the script? - I'm working with Christian Evans on this one. It's my idea which I have talked him into helping me write with me. But he's a good sport and is a new writer and has lots of lovely fresh ideas, and he's passionate about science which is an enormous help to me. 

When is the story likely to be released? - At the end of March, I hope. 

How long is it? - One episode long.

DOCTOR WHO : THE SIXTH DOCTOR ADVENTURES IN 2017

Coming this year, two new adventures with the sixth doctor. The sixth doctor was absent from last year's run of stories. So I thought my viewers couldn't go with the absence of his coat any longer.

THE PARADOX PLANET is a regeneration story, or as I call it, the basic twin dilemma story. The reason I call it that, is because The Twin Dilemma started off the Sixth Doctor's era on television, and so with this being a story where in it, the doctor has just recently regenerated, I call it the twin dilemma story. I also wanted to follow Paradox's or something to do with the danger of the fabric of space time. That was my reasoning behind coming up with the basics of the story. 

THE AUTONAUTS I wanted to do that one again, simply because I watch it back thinking that there are so many things which I know I can do better. The sound for a start, basically when I was editing that story the first time around back in 2013, I had problem with storage space on my computer, so I had to delete a lot of things and by the end one of those things was the original soundtrack. So lots of sound effects and soundtracks for episode three were lost, and the story isn't much good and can be done so much better, and it also opens up an opportunity to use that beautiful new blue suit Colin that we got in the thirteen doctors collectors set.

The Sixth Doctor stories, will be released in the Spring on 2017.

Mortal Kombat XL : Kenshi Variations

KENSHI

Play and fight as Kenshi in these three fantastic costumes, and here's how to unlock them.

Normal Kenshi - Unlocked at the beginning of the game.

This is the standard model variant of Kenshi's look and the most iconic out of all three that are available on console. There's also a gold colour scheme which is open to players as an alternative option. I do like the gold on this one I might say. In terms of variation - Balanced is the best.

Tournament Kenshi - Unlocked by completing a Klassic Tower as Kenshi.

This is Kenshi as he looked in the past, right at the beginning of the story in Chapter One - Johnny Cage. So he looks a lot younger than what he did look before but is still blind for his sins. To unlock this costume you need to complete a klassic tower with Kenshi. 

Ronin Kenshi - Available in Samurai pack

That mouth mask looks cool amongst anything else to do with this outfit. How cool does this look? probably the coolest of all three skins I have seen. To unlock Samurai Kenshi you need to buy the pack with him, Kitana and Shinnok in it and then you'll have another option to play with as Kenshi.

That's it for this post, Kenshi only has three skins, so not much else to show you. There is an Elder Gods skinned Kenshi for the Mobile game. But this is just a post strictly about how to unlock the skins that are available on the console version of the game. With different elaborate and exuberant alternative colour schemes to go with them, all three of Kenshi's costumes speak volumes about his character's look. Normal Kenshi with the gold colours is probably my favourite. And always pick Balanced. Balanced is the best.

Nick Strudwick

It is with sadness and deep remorse that I write this post about my friend and colleague Nick Strudwick.

Nick was known best known for directing plays at the Abbey Theatre where I work in St Albans for the Company of Ten to which I am currently a member of. He directed plays such as "Eclipsed", "My Boy Jack" and "The Master Builder" to name a few of the many shows he put on as part of the company.

I got to know Nick proper on Eclipsed. But the odd thing is, I could sware I knew him before then as I have met him on many occasions prior to this. But when you work with someone for a considerable number of months on say a play, for example, you really do get to know them a little. You come to rehearsals and watch them work three - four times a week, so get to know a bit about them and get to see how they work. Nick was a very talented and very human director, he would work with all of his actors solidly and really get them to tap into the pure heart of their character to help them give, the best performance possible. One of the things he liked to do was 'hot seating' and just sit his cast members down in a circle and get them to talk about their characters, and by doing that, I think this helped the cast identify themselves with the character that they were playing.

He was a loving, kind, gentle man with a wonderful sense of humour and was always very generous with his time. I don't just mean just with rehearsal time, but with all of it, and with everyone he worked with cast and crew.

I haven't known him for very long, a year and a half I should think. And there are other people who know him better than I do and to whom he was a great friend to.

After Eclipsed I would bump into Nick occasionally and have a chat with him about upcoming projects or related work he's doing and stuff like that. When Rope came about I was one of the first people he asked to help work on it which I felt very humble in him actually wanting me to help him. Having read the play in advance to this offer, It seemed to me a great challenge, there was a great story in it, and there was a lot of opportunity to make it another cracker and if anyone could achieve that it would Nick himself.

He made a very promising start with the production, however, he was taken ill and had to leave the rehearsals and eventually he finally passed away today.

I'm very saddened by this news, as I'm sure are all of the people he knew and worked with over the years. He had many dear friends and my thoughts are with his family during this terrible time.

It is hard to believe that he will not be with us anymore, and a great shame that he would not see "Rope" completed. But we are doing what we can in the very few rehearsals we have left to focus and concentrate and put on the best show possible in his memory.

But the people you love, Ronald Montgomery said "The People you love become ghosts inside you. And like this, you keep them alive".

Rest peacefully Nick.
