Here’s the first part:

Lovely interview with Peter Marinker. https://youtu.be/UwDx7tRayK8 SF is briefly covered a few minutes in. Bizarre journey to finding this. Got the new Flash Gordon 4K set a few days ago and watched it yesterday. To my shame this is the first time I’ve watched it in over 20 years. While watching it ...

Nice read that, thanks!

I don’t think I’ve ever read Mark Rolston comment on the series before. So lovely to see him speak so enthusiastically of it.

Sounds like an interesting challenge - might have a bash at the first episode, just to satisfy my own curiosity. Have had a quick scan through the first episode on the French set - given the low(er) quality of the opening and closing credits then I think what I'll end up doing is just swapping out t...

If you rip from a BD into an MKV container then you shouldn't lose anything. AQ and PQ should be retained nicely. I was more thinking of the loss of menus and such. Doesn't really bother me as long as I have the episodes looking and sounding as great as they can be. I'll try and test the waters with...
