Dan Dare 'live'
There could only be one subject for this week's Saturday Timewatch that goes back exactly 50 years to the landing of Apollo 11 on the Moon. Yes, like millions of others, I was watching a tiny television in the middle of the night.
Talk about the culmination of childhood comic heroes! The Eagle comic (titled purely by coincidence with the same word used by Neil Armstrong) featured Dan Dare, space adventurer. I was hooked!!
The photo above was taken in 2010 at NASA Johnson Space Center, Houston.
Title music from Brian Cox's BBC extravaganza "The Planets"
