Batty Birthday to Burt Ward, alias Robin, the Boy Wonder, who turns 81 today. Here he is on a selection of Batman bubble-gum cards from the 1960s that I used to collect when I was very, very young.

A very happy 91st birthday to Lee Meriwether!
Lovely Lee has appeared in many of my favourite TV series and films, including, of course, Star Trek and Batman (as far as I’m concerned, she is still the best movie Catwoman). But it was when Lee played Dr Ann MacGregor on The Time Tunnel that a very young Roo first lost his heart to her.
All my very best wishes to a very special lady.

I've just realised that Alan Napier was 63 when he was playing Alfred. Gulp! That's my age…
Actually, looking at him, you can see he's in the prime of life. Just a bit of a kid, really.

Blu-ray boxed set worth every penny; introduced ourselves just the other night to 'Bookworm' (#RoddyMcDowell!) - unpublished author taking revenge in fiendishly designed villainy.
And the 35mm film scanned for this release holds detail unavailable to original viewers (noting that USA's NTSC video format had even poorer resolution than Europe's PAL). What else do you suppose was in his library?

Eartha Kitt (age 27) guest hosted the penultimate episode of NBC's live, 90-minute variety program YOUR SHOW OF SHOWS #OTD in 1954.
She was already a veteran performer, with hit songs and solo albums and appearances on Broadway.

Apparently, it's Trading Cards for Adults Day. No, I don’t know who comes up with these things either.
The first cards I remember collecting appeared in shops in 1966. These were The Riddler's Riddle, featuring scenes from the Batman TV series and movie. A delightful set of 38 cards, each with—as the name suggests—a riddle to solve on the back.
One of my earliest memories is of opening a packet and discovering the cards inside were in Dutch.

“I was in dire need of tremendous help at that time…And it helped me grow back into a successful name again. People recognized my name, and still do, because of Catwoman.”

Batman '66 was my introduction to Batman. And Started my live long love of the character and all things Batman.
Batman '89 was just an amazing movie. And solidified why I love the character. -
I found something in the backups. Nine years ago, I edited Batman: The Movie to the music from Mad Max: Fury Road. I don't remember why, probably on some weird impulse, but I remember having fun. I really like both movies. So please enjoy this super short trailer.
