The best TV or film robot ever?
.... we'll be talking about this at about 06.50 on Friday morning. Which is your favourite?
(and can you name the three above?)
Favourite on screen robot - Bumblebee from the Transformers movie. Or Kryton from Red Dwarf, if you're talking all television. Very very funny! Andy.
My favorite film robots are Huwie, Dewie and Louie from the 70's film Silent Running. To me they set the format for the likes of R2D2 Wall-e etc. Ed in Aylesbury
My favorite screen robots are Hewey, Dewey & Louis from the fabulous film Silent Running. The only human in the film is Bruce Dern & the robots steal theshow. Not a dry eye in the house. Pete Timney.
My favourite robot - maximillian from the black hole. He was dark and sinister, r2d2's polar opposite! Tony in leatherhead.
ORAC from blake's seven is my fave. . . In the late seventies, a transparent box with flickering lights felt like the future. I wish he cld meet my ipod. Nick

5LNPI: Christmas sales - godsend or god-awful? 28 Dec 09
10:43 Mon, 28 Dec 09
If the figures are to be believed, we all love a bargain. Millions have been spent since the sales started -- and the shops expect another busy day today. It's certainly good for the economy - and doesn't getting something for a bit less make us feel good too? But are the sales really all they're cracked up to be…all that queuing and elbowing for a few quid off? Why can't we stay out of the shops for more than 24 hours at a time? Or is grabbing a bargain exactly what the boost we need after a tricky year?ar?

They forgot to turn Wall-E off!
So the programmed robot kept doing what its limited outlook required him to do. Cleaning up the Earth. What would Robocop have done on an empty Earth then? No one to "clean up"
But most of us can think and consider our options and that is what I find most hopeful - when we have seemingly so many zealots from most of the worlds religion leading the way.
Like those Muslims I am watching on Channel Four at the moment - I hope I use my Bibles texts as a guide and not a skewed "rule book".
We humans have so much in common - why harp on about the perceived differences all the time?
