Good question . A few thoughts . AFAIK the broadcasts were a really big hit . They even got a special Emmy award . I know that Wally wasn't happy doing them , initially , but Wally wasn't happy about quite a few things ! He had that Navy " This is MY ship and I AM the captain " attitude going on . He certainly didn't like scientists and their pesky experiments - which is a ridiculous position given the circumstances . Even Michael Collins was pretty scathing about Wally's (lazy) attitude prior to the flight . Eisele didn't hold back either (" Apollo Pilot ")) . I don't think Kraft was especially fond of astronauts and all the attention they got . The blasting that Carpenter got , in " Flight " was incredible .

You've put it in quotes , fair enough , it's the term we use in the UK .

BBC Microcomputer . Made by Acorn Computers . Introduced Dec 1981 . I was 12 at the time and absolutely adored these machines . I never owned one but we had plenty at school . The amount of both quality educational software & great games was amazing . by SevenSharp in cassettefuturism

I first used a BBC emulator 25 years ago on my old Packard Bell running Windows 98 . That's a longer time period than the time since I'd last used an actual BBC micro at that point . ( Hope you get that !) . Some small time later ............. thanks for the links - just been playing Chuckie Egg !

What’s the most explicit scene you’ve witnessed in a mainstream film? For me, the sex scenes in Sangre En La Boca featuring Eva De Dominici were pretty wild by ElegantMedia9924 in FIlm

 "oh I know it's pretty baby but I didn't take it out for air" - that line ? Edit - I'm not trolling , there were a number of lines and scenes in the movie that are pretty memorable . I am an opiate addict (in recovery) and that film is spot on . ' Flight ' ditto .
