Smoke Me a Kipper! New Red Dwarf T-Shirts at TruffleShuffle!

It may have taken us the best part of ten years, but we've finally gone and done it! Yep we've just got our hands on an amazing range of Red Dwarf T-Shirts and we couldn't love them more!

.

Red Dwarf if widely considered one of BBC2's greatest hits and at its prime was one of the most watched TV shows on the box.

Spanning an amazing 10 years from 1988 to 1998 and with ten series to its name, it's hard not to see just what a hit this show was. With an amazing mix of sci-fi and comedy, what's not to love?!

Red Dwarf followed the story of Dave Lister, the last man on earth who is doomed to spend the rest of his days lost in space with his crew, Rimmer, Cat and Kryteb. For as long as we can remember, we've loved watching this unlikely team explore the depths of space. With their up and downs, love hate relationships, and constant power struggles it really is one of the great British comedies! TruffleShuffle salutes you!

Na-Nu Na-New Mork And Mindy T-Shirts Now In!

We're sooo excited to have our latest designs in! From such a classic show too!

Inspired by the huuuge hit, Mork and Mindy was an American sci-fi sitcom that was broadcast back in 1978, right up until 1982 on their popular channel ABC.

Now, we're sure that this show could be a few years before your time. It certainly finished before many of us TruffleShuffler's had landed on earth in our own little eggs! So here's a little rundown...

The show tells the tale of the space alien from the planet Ork named Mork, played by screen legend Robin Williams, who (crash) lands his egg-shaped ship into planet earth after he is sent to study humans. He quickly meets Mindy, a sweet 21-year-old played by Pam Dawber who having just been abandoned by her boyfriend, needed to be chaperoned back to town. She decided to help Mork to adjust to life on Earth and they become great friends despite Mork usually frustrating her.

At the end of each episode, Mork reports back to Orson (his long-suffering superior) on what he has learned about Earth. These end-of-show summaries really are the peak of the shows humour and generally involve making fun of the things we all do.

Amazing Thunderbirds Behind the Scenes Piccys!

5....4....3....2....1....Thunderbirds are GO!

We can still remember it now, the opening titles, the excitement of getting to see what the heroes of Tracey Island would be up to next and what catastrophe or evil villain they had to deal with, all taken in their bouncy, puppety stride.

For as long as we can remember, we've been the biggest fans of Thunderbirds along with a whole line of kids from its humble beginnings back on September 30th, 1965 (nearly 49 years ago!).

It had everything, the characters, the gadgets, the cars, the planes and of course....its own Island! Not only that, but at every moment you found yourself trying to spot the strings (which wasn't tricky) and also when they had used someone's hand....probably the tea boy's, but all the while trying to believe it was all real. Simply magical!

Now, hopefully some of these won't act as a spoiler and perhaps young fans eyes should look away, but we've been busy digging out some of our favourite pictures of the creative geniuses putting together this iconic show for you all to see. Take a peep at our amazing 'string' of classic behind the plasti-scenes pictures (not even sorry) :) Enjoy!
