47 Gedanken zu „The Spectrum Show EP 100“
  1. Great achievement – well done! I do sometimes sorry for the some of the authors of the poorer games which don't get a good review. They were probably really proud of them at the time and maybe they also watch the Spectrum Show.

  2. Gobbleman was my first Spectrum game. First owned game on any format. Still love it now. Regarding the instant death – When you respawn in the middle, just sit still for a few seconds while the ghosts wander off, then you'll be fine. The game works on a 'line of sight' principle. If you're in direct line to a ghost, it will come after you.

  3. More than eight years of dedication and only now i find out about your show : the YT suggestion algorithm definitely suxxx – but now that i found you , nostalgia flows freely ( or are zey zentimental dropletz from zee eye ? )

  4. Congratulations on 100 episodes Paul! I spotted an August 1984 Sinclair User Magazine in your section on missed magazine reviews, the very and only time I got my program published in the beginners section (Manic Axe). I got £10 for that aged 13, and went to Woolworths to buy a copy of Fred (also mentioned in this edition). Heres to the next 100 episodes !!

  5. Deep shame as a change of bank card meant I drifted from Patreon.Back on now and apols… and love your stuff so much. As a 51 year old who will never forget Christmas 82 you take me to a superb place! But no mention of CTech Kong??

  6. Thanks Paul. I’ve spent the last couple of months binge watching these hundred episodes, and I’ve learned a lot. Have several speccys in the loft including my original boxed +128 from my childhood which never gets used (I have another one for general use now) and can’t wait to get my Next hopefully in 2021.
    It is a shame though for a computer that sold millions you’ve got so few subs. You deserve more and I also respect your position on advertising, YT are really aggressive these days on ads. I would encourage anyone who has the means to bung a few notes your way.

  7. Paul mentions World of Spectrum (WOS) and wonder if it is a topic for longer discussion; is it now a reliable download archive or is its content slowly being removed. I think I read some people have downloaded the entire WOS content for preservation

  8. Thank you so much for this series! It has kept me going, binge watching all the way from episode 1, as I recover from serious injury! Loved every minute of the trips back to my childhood!

  9. Hi there – weird, my comment was lost. I just wanted to say well done sitting through all of those Pacman clones – very patient man indeed. OC Man and Z-man had the same music as on my handheld pacman 2 toy from the early 80's. Cheers!

  10. Awesome!
    I just bought a CTX5000 for my spectrum, but unfortunately it didn't come with the ribbon cable. Would you know where I could find one? It seems that most spectrum accessories just plugged straight into the edge connector rather than using a cable, so they don't seem to be a common item.
    Thanks in advance
