Plumbing the Depths...in a good way!
26 April 2023
Firstly,All praise to Irwin Allen and his fantastical shows,(..Lost in Space,Land of the Giants,Time Tunnel etc..),which gave so much pleasure to me and generations of children,(..and hopefully,still do..). I recently stumbled across full episodes on YouTube and started watching them and was instantly transported back to the 60's and 70's. With a beaming smile on my face I watched Admiral Nelson,Capt Crane,Chip,Chief Sharky,Kowalski and the rest of the crew outwit the larger,(..literally..),than life,scenery chewing Victor Buono as a Mad Scientist wanting to start WW3 by taking control of the 'Seaview',(..the absolutely beautiful submarine which still looks great nearly 60years on...ditto,the Flying Sub,an absolutely awesome designed craft..). I did vaguely remember the ep but loved it anyway,the shonky sets and wobbly scenery,(..primitive by today's standards,obv..),just adding to the Charm. I shall be watching all I can and enjoying every second of them. Some people say Nostalgia isn't what it was,well it is for me. Big Thank You again to the Mighty Mr Allen.
