Hey, I Remember This Show: The Thin Blue Line

I suspect writer Ben Elton and actor Rowan Atkinson would rather me remember this show for some other reason than the fact that I first came across actress Mina Anwar on this series but hey! I gotta be me. And it is not like there are a lot of British shows with a star who looks like Ms. Anwar. (Okay, there was The Invisibles and now there is The Sarah Jane Adventures. But all that is besides the point -- and anyway, it is Ms. Anwar in those shows too.)

Anyway, I hope you all enjoy this brisk stroll down memory lane.

The Sarah Jane Adventures: “The Day of the Clown”

Oh, cool.

Sarah Jane's stepson Luke has a new schoolmate and her name is -- Rani? Are the writers of this series really all that up on the history of British sci-fi? Because I could have sworn that there was another Rani character on the original Doctor Who series.

On the plus side, it is kinda cool to find out that Sarah Jane's new neighbor is Maggie Habib from The Thin Blue Line. (Better known as actress Mina Anwar to all you spoilsports.)

And yes, this episode's villain is scary. I guess when the writers thought him up, they were not clowning around...
