A Look Back at the Nineties: The Complete Series of the Award-Winning BBC Radio 4 Comedy
"The 1993 series that sees Brian Perkins and Kate Robbins 'looking back' at the decade that was yet to happen Newsreader and ‘Godfather of Radio 4’ Brian Perkins and Spitting Image impressionist Kate Robbins star in this Sony Award-winning satirical show, set on New Year’s Eve at the turn of the millennium. As the Nineties come to a close, they recall the tumultuous, earth-shattering events of the years 1994-1999. Join them as they revisit when the House of Commons voted for an Honesty Act; Blue Peter launched an appeal with a twist; the media’s attention turned to an unusual new breed of dog; The Archers went on strike; the Hubble space telescope discovered a new star sign and young people thrilled to an exciting new musical style blending dub reggae and horse-racing commentary… Predicted using a crystal ball in 1993, this futuristic show was foretold by Spitting Image writers Mark Burton, John O'Farrell and Pete Sinclair, who also performed alongside special guests Chris Barrie, Hugh Dennis, Steve Coogan, Jack Dee, Rory Bremner and Alistair McGowan. Cast and credits Starring Brian Perkins and Kate Robbins Written and performed by Mark Burton, John O'Farrell and Pete Sinclair Special guests: Chris Barrie, Hugh Dennis, Steve Coogan, Jack Dee, Rory Bremner and Alistair McGowan Produced by Caroline Leddy First broadcast on BBC Radio 4 on the following dates: 1995 10 July 1993 1996 17 July 1993 1997 24 July 1993 1998 31 July 1993 1999 7 August 1993 1994 31 December 1993 © 2024 BBC Studios Distribution Ltd.

Revenge: The New World Series Book 2
"The eagerly anticipated sequel to DINOSAUR After their leader is taken, the remaining crew of the USS New World are in danger of losing heart. Freshly minted Captain Jill Baines feels the loss more acutely than anyone, yet she must somehow bring them all together to face the increased threat of an enemy whose power is growing by the hour. Left with just one course of action – attack, and quickly – her courage and ingenuity are tested to the limit while the deadly dinosaurs of Cretaceous Gondwana prove an unexpected ally. Meanwhile, political rumblings and further treachery at home threaten to crack the fledgling human society into pieces, forcing Jill Baines to choose between the lives of the people in her care or that of her best friend. Tim Norris proposes a daring plan to attempt both, which sets him on the darkest journey of all… alone. “A highly suspenseful time-travel adventure series, combining a clever mix of detailed prehistory and history throughout – not to mention some great bad guys. The twists and turns really keep you guessing, while the darkness and humour really keep you reading. Not to be missed.” Black Sheep Books 'With book two in the New World series, Stephen Llewelyn picks up right where things ended after DINOSAUR, roaring to action in REVENGE, and it’s another phenomenal tale. While DINOSAUR took time to set the world, the plot, the characters in motion, REVENGE wastes little of it, setting the reader off on an adventure like you’d never believe. It will get your adrenaline pumping as new action sequences burst to life, and it’ll give you chills when each new surprise comes your way. This series is one you won’t want to miss, and while you’ll certainly want to start with DINOSAUR, you’ll no doubt want to stick around for this tale.' Michael DeAngelo"

DINOSAUR: The New World Series Book 1
"An insane plan is hatched to save humanity. Fighting to stop it could doom us all. When every action and decision may determine the fate of everyone who has ever lived, the right choice is not always clear. However, for one man, there is no choice at all… Captain James Douglas sets off on a mundane transport and supply mission that quickly descends into disaster. Leading a fledgling society through a wild and hostile world was not part of his brief. Nor was the custodianship of all human life, history and endeavour. Worse still, the knowledge of a boy, just days out of school, may be all that stands between mankind and extinction. The crew and passengers of the USS New World are lost almost 100 million years ago in Mid-Cretaceous Gondwana. It is the time of the dinosaur. The castaways follow a trail of mystery. Battling conflicting evidence, misinformation and baffling discoveries they hope to reveal who has placed them in such terrible danger, why, and most importantly, what on ancient Earth can they do about it? ************ Tim Norris was a nerd, an outcast, a ‘nobody’. When his lifelong fascination with natural history and paleontology became crucial to the very survival of over a hundred people, he was suddenly a ‘somebody’. In his wildest dreams he could never have foreseen that he would travel to Patagonia and document such incredible creatures as Mapusaurus roseae and Argentinosaurus huinculensis, in context and from their own time in the Mid-Cretaceous. The ancient world was both a place of awesome natural beauty and bowel-clenching terror. The crew and passengers of the USS New World are surrounded by peril without and stalked by enemies within, but when compared with the desperately overcrowded, dystopian 22nd century in which he grew up, Tim wouldn’t change a thing. Chris Barrie is best known as Rimmer, in BBC sci-fi ‘RED DWARF’, and from 'The Brittas Empire’, ‘Tomb Raider’ and ‘Spitting Image’."
