Ashes to Ashes Updates


Updated links to Ashes to Ashes episodes so  if your not in UK you can now catch up on show ..pic here of Gene Hunt  is only about  a quarter complete(so maybe it's a bit more Liam Neeson than Philip Glenister at the moment)  it's a crop from front cover of comic I'll be producing which I'll create a new blog for soon ... I'm heading towards the end of script  but I'll have to do some edits here and there. It will be a Prequel/Sequel to tv series (you can do that seeing as it's about time hopping )

Dennis

Western Playlist

New 100 song playlist inspired by the release of Red Dead Redemption (the only reason I'll be buying a third generation games console in the next few weeks) alot of the playlist is made up from the ost to the  games predecessor Red Dead Revolver which seems to be the Nuggets of  Spaghetti Western soundtrack compilations (So it made it very easy for me to compile the playlist)plus added a fair bit of Morricone too

PC Dixon



The End of Ashes to Ashes adds a whole new new meaning to Dixon of Dock Green.. I always wondered what was inside that police box of his.
