Well, we're finally on the sunny side of the midwinter solstice, and today is traditionally Christmas Day in many parts of the world. All in all, a time of feasting, and lighting fires, and making merry.

It's also the time of year where the lads might have sat down in front of the box to watch that fine old 1970s tradition, the Christmas Special, and so in honour of 1977, and thirty years of The Professionals we thought we'd have a go at emulating such style!

So, without further to-do, ladles and jellyspoons, here for your viewing (and reading!) pleasure...
Well... nearly there... just a bit further... it's actually here

Wow... this is just brilliant! I'm so touched by all this effort and talent on our behalf. The art is amazing - and I am not one that gushes easily over fanart, but it's staggering. So, so good.

Cannot believe I have this hamper of fic to feast on. Thank you so much to all involved, and I shall be back with more praise for the individuals once I get going.

So, yeah, Christmas special... bring it on, baby, bring it ON!!

I just have to comment on [livejournal.com profile] crimson_37's art for this - it's brilliant! Her Bodie alone is especially wonderful and real, but I love the other two with almost equal fervour.

And huge thanks to [livejournal.com profile] byslantedlight for putting the whole project together.

Wow! I have just read this from cover to cover. Thank you everyone for all your wonderful stories and poem. What a true delight this was. I thoroughly enjoyed it.

And a special thank you to [livejournal.com profile] byslantedlight for all her hard work. For without it, we wouldn't have this lovely pressie.

Well done all, and thank you.

Shees! This random icon thingy? Is annoying like Hell! As I am at a borrowed pc, I have only take the time to setting only what is more important (yes, I still have hopes to recover my pc soon) and the LJ addon wasn't one of those *headdesk*

A fabulous zine! I loved all of it, but must make special mention of the art,which is fantastic.

Can we leave individual feedback to the contributors elsewhere? Or do you just pass on lots and lots of thanks and the fact that they all brightened up a grey January?

As always, I'm in awe of the 'long episode' stories (One of us two, A different kind of reckonin' and These layers of charnel air). I can do it in other fandoms but not, so far, in this one!! Some strange psychological block!! And they're my favourite kind, too!

I'm very impressed at the idea that someone is writing Pros poems...

Ummm, I tried to download the file over and over again but it always stopped when it reached 10% or 15%. I wondered if my internet connection and my location, Indonesia, are the problem. But I asked my friend in US and she experienced the same thing. I wonder if maybe you know the problem? Because I really want to read the zine.

Thank you.
