    Sorry it's late, if you want to prevent it being late again then buy Dave a state of the art laptop to replace the tired one he has.

    On this show Dave and Stace  talk about the new Green Lantern trailer, Incredible Hulk TV show, they also talk about the Conjour, the upcoming Science Fiction an Fantasy one day literary convention in Leeds, Karen Gillans new casting in a bizaare sounding take on Romeo and Juliet and the return of the podcast Q!Paw

    Week that was

    Dr Who: Tesseract by Tony Lee

    Judge Dredd: Mega City Undercover &

    the excellent show Community.

    Main: Shows we left behind

    Once again it’s time to tread the halls of Indie Asylum as we have a damn hard time wrapping our collective craniums around the subject of difficulty. With head scratching and brain punching we break out some games covering all varying levels of difficulty, with some chilled and casual that even Chelle can play to some so hard I wanted to kill puppies with my fists.

    All that and enough indie love to make the fat cats of Wall Street break free and live like work shy, over emotional, over opinionated hippies. Which funnily enough describes Silent Hitoshura who was kind enough to suggest this theme to us. So before I cut loose and go live in a cage, here’s some awesome games:

    1. Cloud – Free + flOw – Free / PSN + Flower – PSN + Journey – In development

    2. Canabalt – Free + Robot Unicorn Attack – Free

    3. Super Meat Boy – Xbox Live Arcade - 800 Points (Rising to 1200 from November) / Steam (Coming Soon)

    In the process they admire the writing, society and military technology of the Tremeraire books. While at it they keel hawl the reputation of Napoleon, amputate Marshall Bulcher and pull out the guns on the nature of the HMS Allegiance.

    Hammers Slammers make a surprise appearance and Kehaar gets all gushy eyed on the heroism of the period, Sharpe and Hornblower mainly stay in reserve but their presence is felt. They also admire the other developments of the time (though manage not to mention the Romantic movement - silly boys.) Jane Austin, Tom Mix and Tom Crabbe even get a mention.

    So take a tot of rum, sound general quarters, scramble, stand to your guns, mount up or form square depending on your service me lads & lasses -

    Do you want to see Napoleon in Windsor Castle? NO!

    Do you want to see a Guillotine in Piccadilly? NO!

    Do you want to see your children grow up speaking French* NO!

    Then listen to this exciting epsiode of Dissecting Worlds

    (* apologies to French, Swiss, Belgian, Quecois and other Franophone listeners.)'

    fter a couple of relatively in-depth episodes the gang settle back into their old routine, loosen their belts and have a good old natter about the best books to read on the holiest of holes. Basic practicalities such as portability, absorbency (i.e. attention spans) and the cloth-touching of family trouser-turtles are all mulled over and given the serious consideration they deserve.

    Meanwhile welcome distractions are provided by a hacking cough, the cheapskate Ambassador of Ferrero Rocher and Blue Peter ladies - both totty and notty.

    Books and authors discussed include The Green Mile, The Yellow Wallpaper, Robert Bloch, Blood Sword, Leather Goddesses Of Phobos, Charles Dickens, The Lottery, The Running Man, HP Lovecraft and Legends. Strangely no mention is made of Wee Jock Poo-Pong McPlop, for which I apologise.

    We do however mention a website from which you can get access to a whole bunch of free stories online - here's the link http://freesf.blogspot.com/

    Send your entries for the banner and logo competition flooding in to scrolls@hotmail.co.uk and for the sake of economy you can use the same e-mail address to contact us about joining in with the Scrolls Book Group podcast - open to all.

    I'm on Twitter now @Dion_Scrolls so I'd love to get any feedback there, on the forums at http://www.gsforums.co.uk via e-mail or on the comments section below. So much choice!

    Music is as ever by Steadman - except for the jazzy bit at the start which came off of some crappy cd I got free with a cocktail shaker a few years back.

    I should probably add that we are giggly and explicit from the beginning, but not so distasteful as to be graphic. Well, not that graphic. Wuss. Strap yourselves in, it's going to be a bum-py ride.

    With Flint unavailable, Rich pulls in Iz to see how someone who actually jumped on at prog 1700 is coping with the current storylines. They go through progs 1703-1706 and of course take time to take the piss out of the absent Irishman. This one was recorded slightly differently to normal, so apologies for the sound quality.


    As usual, expect spoilers throughout and language not suitable for the kiddies.
