    Foiled again

    I still haven’t got round to seeing Terminator 3. Things just keep coming up to keep me busy.

    But I’m told that, like T2, it features a liquid metal terminator with the ability to shape-shift, only this time it’s a woman. Hmm. Sound familiar?

    It is, of course, a direct rip-off of Morph. Not only was he made of Plasticine, and therefore every bit as malleable as the T1000, but his mate Delilah - a woman - was made of tin foil*. A metal.

    The case is clear. Tony Hart should sue.

    *Further research suggests that Delilah was someone else altogether, and the character made from foil was called, in fact, ‘Foily’. I do hope this error didn’t cause anyone too much mental distress. If it did, then you’re just weird.
