A few weeks ago some legendary Apollo heroes and "some others" decided to get together to create something that brings a little bit of fun to a very strange time.

See if you can spot an Apollo Flight Director, a FIDO, an infamous Sim Sup, a LM and CM Caution & Warning Engineer and some other "characters." Heck, there's even a former BBC Apollo correspondent and a Professor of Psychology involved. Oh, and some notorious collectSPACE members barged their way in to the production, too.

If it simply makes you smile then we’ve achieved our goal!

An excellent effort by the three of you and it was an absolute honour to be a part of it. I got to share the screen with some true legends and a few even worked for NASA and the BBC.

Great effort chaps! A very impressive list of luminaries and great to see some familiar faces: less so some unfamiliar knees!

Do you think we can pass this off as our audition piece for any future editions of Space Dealers?

And yes crash, it was an honour for you to appear in a film with me.

Loo Roll Challenge #lockdown2020. Such fun! The amazing space community came together with some incredible guests to help this very special toilet roll on its travels. So honoured to be included.

Thank you Craig, Colin and Peter for making it happen.

No guys (and girl!), thank YOU for participating, it was such a fun project which really brought out the ‘creativity’ in us. This video will be a joy to watch for many years to come!

I might create a "blooper" reel one day soon, we don’t have many, but the ones we do have are very funny (Dick Koos has a cracker!).
