Dear Supporters
Thanks for your patience with this video; one of those "tentpole" major videos that I do from time to time. And whilst this was I think my biggest edit to date, I hope you have as much fun watching as I did creating it all! 2021-11-08 01:53:11 +0000 UTC View Post
Teaser: Knight Rider Locations & Games!
Dear Supporters

Early bird: Why can you smell nostalgia?
Thumbnail updated: Sometimes I like to take a little time to get it just right, as is the case here! I've found it can sometimes make or break a video's success, which all in turn helps the channel and our little retrogang here. Go Perifractea...
