http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Manimal "Manimal is an American action-adventure series that ran from September 30 to December 17, 1983 on NBC. The show centres around the character Dr Jonathan Chase (Simon MacCorkindale), a shape-shifting man who possessed the ability to turn himself into any animal he chose. He used this ability to help the police solve crimes." But, disappointingly: "By modern standards the show's special effects, though plentiful, are low-quality. While Jonathan had the ability to change himself into any animal, he would transform into a hawk and a black panther in nearly every episode. In some episodes, he would transform into a third animal, such as a horse, dolphin, or bull, with the transformation taking place offscreen, though once he was shown becoming a snake." Cheaters! Or Cheetahs.

Although I am aware you have proved your self to be an Avianist in the past, please, I can click and follow a fecking link.
I'm not some sort of "Community Project" for you to patronise as you see fit.
Manimal is clearly rubbish, he has nothing on the powers of The Skein.
If I were to morph, (and as if I would tell you, if indeed I could not or could, arch Nemesis) I would blind you with a shower of my Magnesium Powders first. None the wiser then La Café, non the wiser.
If there is no struggle, there is no progress. Those who profess to favor freedom, and yet depreciate agitation, are men who want crops without plowing up the ground. They want rain without thunder and lightning. They want the ocean without the awful roar of its many waters. This struggle may be a moral one; or it may be a physical one; or it may be both moral and physical; but it must be a struggle.

I just enjoyed the description of the special effects (or lack thereof) so much I thought I'd share for those who can't be @rsed to click a link about a short-lived crapola tv series from the early 80s. Arch Nemesis? The extensive gormclops community on here to select from and you pick me? Unbelievable
Right, I'm off to morph into something. A Matt Cardle-loving, middle-aged accountant I think.

Hmm, perhaps I was slightly harsh. I'll wait for MissNatalieLouise to find her way over here.

Good point, well put.

Just come back from Parma having spent some time with Errea looking at some plans for development etc and brought a couple of these bad boys back with me.
Could be a nice idea for an away shirt for you lot

Didnt bring any back but I had some top notch stuff whilst there. And the best Lambrusco I have ever drank
Never been to Parma, but I love Italy, great food, great booze, great people. It's the only place where my awful driving fits in, I recall a drive into Florence where Ms. pmh was more or less in tears!

The guy from Errea who picks us up is nicknamed the Stig, it kind of says it all!!
