L'enquête du célèbre journaliste d'investigation Joe Strombel, consacrée au "Tueur au Tarot" de Londres, tourne court quand il meurt de façon aussi soudaine qu'inexplicable. Mais rien, pas même la mort, ne peut arrêter Joe. À peine arrivé au purgatoire, il décide de transmettre ses toutes dernières informations à la plus charmante des étudiantes en journalisme : Sondra Pransky. De passage à Londres, Sondra entend le fantôme de Joe s'adresser à elle durant un numéro de magie de l'Américain Splendini, alias Sid Waterman. Bouleversée et folle de joie à l'idée d'avoir déniché le scoop du siècle, l'effervescente créature se lance avec Sid dans une enquête échevelée, qui les mène droit au fringant aristocrate et politicien Peter Lyman. Une idylle se noue en dépit de troublants indices semblant désigner le beau Peter comme le "Tueur au Tarot". Le scoop de Sondra lui sera-t-il fatal ?

A Short Film About John Bolton is a darkly hip and hilarious film explores the question that torments artists of every medium: "Where do your ideas come from?" Renowned artist John Bolton's paintings of voluptuous she-vampire nudes have earned this quiet eccentric a reputation for having a "damaged imagination." BBC radio personality Jonathan Ross buys his pieces, which leads interviewer extraordinaire Marcus Brigstocke to find out what the appeal is in Bolton's beautiful (but terrifying) artwork. Why does Bolton demand that his gallery "monsterpieces" speak for themselves? What does he do with that ornamental knife that he carries everywhere? Will Marcus ever learn how to operate the camera?

Jupiter Moon was a science fiction television series first broadcast by British Satellite Broadcasting's Galaxy Channel from 26 March 1990 until December the same year. 150 episodes were commissioned, but only the first 108 were broadcast by BSB. It was commissioned to fulfill the perceived need for a soap opera in BSB's line-up and, as such, it was shown three times a week, with an omnibus edition at weekends. The series was curtailed owing to the merger between BSB and Sky Television plc and the subsequent cessation of the Galaxy Channel, although the later episodes were eventually shown in the UK on the Sci Fi Channel between 22 January and 19 February 1996. The soap was screened on GBC TV ahead of its premiere on BSB's own Galaxy channel. The soap was seen in the British Overseas Territory every Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday at 730pm, having taken the slot formerly occupied by Eastenders which had become too expensive for GBC TV.
