I am pleased to say that New Rock, New Rules has been officially released!
Two enemies, each more powerful than the other. An army of monsters. An air fleet of dragons raining down fire and fury from above. The frozen north. Ice Wights and Ogres.
What could possibly go right?

Earlier this summer, I had the joy of hosting the famous five series reunion at my place in London... I along with Gail Renard edited and rewrote the script for the TV series back in 1978. There is little better ways to celebrate than with cake and lashes of ginger beer !

Just finished reading the excellent and entertaining book ‘New Rock New Role’, by former F5 Script writer, Richard Sparks. This is the first of four in the series. No spoiler alerts, but if you enjoy Gaming and a bit of fantasy reading, then this’ll be right up your street! 👍

45 years ago Richard wrote the school master sketch for The Secret Policeman’s ball. Last month Ryan Gilbey from the Guardian voted this as Rowan Atkinson’s best film. Here Richard talks about meeting Rowan for the first time.
