Nuclear Hurricane – Irwin Allen References

Watched a TV disaster movie earlier called Nuclear Hurricane with Jack Scalia and there was definitely evidence of the Irwin Allen influence.  Not only was the nuclear facility in the movie named “Seaview”, but there was also the use of the phrase “Danger Will Robinson” as a character tackled an out of control computer.

Have you seen or heard any other Irwin Allen phrases and references in other movies?  If so, please do let us know.

Around the World in Eighty Days

The BBC series Around the World in Eighty Days featured 6 pairs of British celebrities including John Barrowman (Captain Jack in Dr. Who and Torchwood) doing a relay trip around the world, by any form of transport other than flying.  This challenge was in aid of the annual Children in Need charity.

So, we were sitting watching the final segment with two celebrities taking a cargo ship across the Atlantic back to England.  And lo and behold, which theme gets played during the ocean voyage… yes, you guessed it, the Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea theme.
