JMS may com across as slightly pompous on Social Media but he did a damn fine job of pulling off a story arc. If you like B7 and the first season of Star Trek: Discovery Babylon 5 is well worth your time but watch it as cold as possible to avoid spoilers I always thought shows like Charmed were basically just trying to mimic Buffy - which was something else I didn't watch

If that was between Babylon 5 ending and Nu Who starting I was probably not really engaged with any contemporary SF/F at that time.

I hate to admit it but the only reason I know who she is, is because of discussion about her on this site

When I first looked this grouping was the one that gave me the biggest meh. I know what I want to go through but they will probably not go into my final list very high

Thank you everyone who has pointed out what needs updated. I have updated the masterlist and @RoverAndOut does move into a finishing position just awaiting William Shatner

I did wonder with a name like that

Wouldn't even be in the Top 5 Englishmen Graham Potter Eddie Howe Sean Dyche Kieran McKenna Michael Carrick I actually think Paul Chuckle would get the nod ahead of him

Twitter can be great. Someone is running some cracking Doctor Who polls there. However Twitter does contradict the No Smoke without Fire adage. So if you smell the smoke on Twitter don't share it until you have seen the flamed for yourself. I have been caught like that myself.

Changed to Patricia Routledge

This could finish this weekend

Is that double points or two sets of single votes which cannot be on consecutive posts?
