SCI FI PI

It's a week of classic fun this week on SCI FI with the grand finale of the Kirk/Spock Trek movies, Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country.


Christopher Plummer as the Klingon Admiral Kang is superb (what would you expect with an eyepatch that's literally riveted into place?) and the alluring Iman (David Bowie's real life wife) plays a troublemaking shapeshifter who gives Kirk a run for his money on the 'alien graveyard' of Rura Penthe, the galaxy's most brutal penal colony.


Leonard Nimoy (Spock) and William Shatner (Kirk) lead the whole original crew on one final galaxy-wide adventure to stop war breaking out between the Klingons and the Federation just as it seems that peace will finally reign.


For those who haven't seen number 6, it's one of the best of the Trek movies and a great place to start in a series of films that combine old fashioned adventure with true Trek class. Great special effects include weightless Klingon blood.


Keep an eye out too for Kim Cattrall and a cameo from none other than Christian Slater.


Don't miss it, this Tuesday night at 10.20pm!


Another Sci Fi spectacular in the 'don't miss' category - all new Battlestar Galactica, Season 3, continues Sunday nights at 22.10pm and Thursday nights at 10.30pm.


Don't fret over the ending of BSG Season 4 - relive the magic of Season 3! You know you can't deny it's goodness, it's brilliance, it's sheer unadultered genius. BSG is what's turning the modern ordinary audience into committed SCI FI watchers!


If you're tuning to SCI FI on Thursday nights for BSG, why not come in early and check out the great team of our all new episodes of The Dead Zone, and Threshold, at 7.30pm and 8.30pm respectively.


With Stargate SG-1 to tide you over to the All new Battlestar Galactica episodes at 10.30pm, it's a great night of entertainment, sure to be a regular Thursday night fixture for the coming month at least.


Of course, if you are looking for a regular fixture, there's nothing like or weekly dash of Anime, every Saturday morning.


Crack open then Froot Loops, Honey Smacks, or if possible, the Cocoa Pops and relive the glory of cartoons in the morning, all morning on Saturday, from 9am to 11am.


Ghost in the Shell, Cowboy Bebop, Black Lagoon and Blood Plus are amongst the world's most popular and acclaimed anime series - tune in and see what all the fuss is about, and start your weekend in a new and entirely interesting way!
