  1. the best movies never made

    And here was me thinking that George Dixon was the only TV cop to come back from the dead!

  2. Anime is sort of underrated for how much alternate history it contains

    I'm reading it at the future and with references to the USSR still existing and World War IV (!) it certainly feels both like AH and Alternative Future (if that can be a thing). It would certainly take quite a PoD for our 2029 to be like the one depicted in GitS!

  3. A Blunted Sickle - Thread II

    Depends where you are. The U.K. has a strong(ish) third party at Westminster level.

  4. Images Of Kara's First Day: Pictures Of Red Dawn's WW3 And The Aftermath

    A GCM-A 30mm cannon mount, which was mounted on many RN warships and some RFA. A GAM-B01 20mm mount. These cannon were fitted to almost every vessel in RN & RFA service. A 20mm Oerlikon. While this weapon dated back to the Second World War, it was still in widespread service with Allied...

    Which was why Japan had access to intelligence that no other US ally had…oh…wait, what’s that? They didn‘t? It was the U.K. that had the position of getting access to stuff that even other members of the Five Eyes didn’t and still does? 😀 Sounds like Mansfield ’went native’ to some degree...

    OOC: I figured that’s where the pic came from. The closest one is interesting. It’s not a tank. I think it’s a Centurion ARV.

    Look like Chieftains to me, rarer than Challengers.

  8. TV & Film Cross-overs that never happened

    In the spirit of the film and TV threads I thought I'd start one for cross-overs that never happened. * Father Brown - A Marple In Kembleford (2014) While visiting her old friend, Mrs McCarthy (Sorcha Cusack), Miss Jane Marple (Julia McKenzie), assists Father Brown (Mark Williams) in...

  9. Images Of Kara's First Day: Pictures Of Red Dawn's WW3 And The Aftermath

    A Rapier Field Standard B launcher of No.27 Squadron, RAF Regiment, fires on a Soviet Su-24 attacking RAF Leuchars.

  10. the best movies never made

    The Man Who Didn't Save the World (2014) Hour long documentary that challenged the claims of the 2013 film, including the claim that Petrov had the authority to order a retaliatory strike. Petrov himself appeared in the film, dismissing the idea that he saved anyone. Missed out on the Oscars...

  11. Images Of Kara's First Day: Pictures Of Red Dawn's WW3 And The Aftermath

    A post war shot from circa 2018, showing an RAF Lancer B.1 in formation with a Typhoon T.1A and a Tornado GR.4. The RAF made extensive use of the Lancer and Tornado during the Third World War.

  12. What if Clement Attlee appointed Ernest Bevin to Exchequer and Hugh Dalton to Foreign Office, as originally planned?

    Bevan swung the Cabinet decision towards building a British Bomb. So, I guess it depends on whether Hugh Dalton is spoken to as badly by Dean Acheson as Bevan was and if Dalton reacts similarly.

  13. A Blunted Sickle - Thread II

    On a weird random note, was just reflecting on the fact that in this TL the classic sitcoms Dad's Army, 'Allo, 'Allo and It Ain't Half Hot Mum won't exist. I guess Perry and Croft will write something else.

    And killing air crew who have ejected is a War Crime. Those responsible for atrocities such as that one should have been sent to prison.

  15. Images Of Kara's First Day: Pictures Of Red Dawn's WW3 And The Aftermath

    That’s not the M60A4 as per RD canon. It’s based on the M60-2000, or 120S. I’ve included some pics of an M60A4-120 below.

  16. WI: David Lloyd George died from the Spanish Flu in 1918?

    Well, at least we‘d be saved from the self-serving fiction that his War Memoirs were.

  17. Protect & Survive Miami: End of Watch

    Not the bookcase! Oh, the horror! Won't someone think of the bookcases! 🤣

  18. Protect & Survive Miami: End of Watch

    Temps me to write something like The Journey again.

  19. Everything goes wrong for post-war Britain

    A better TL for Scots, Welsh and the Northern Irish. We don’t need to listen to England boast about it ever after. BBC and ITV aren’t able to crowbar mentions of 1966 into the commentary of almost every international football match. I thought we were trying to make things worse, not create a...

  20. How likely do you feel that Roger Hollis, director of the UK’s MI5 (“EM” - “EYE” - 5), was a Soviet agent?

    @Dancing Fool in an internal conversation between two KGB officers? It was a conversation reported by Oleg Gordievsky.
