Jim Bagley - what can you say about Sir Bagley? Speccy hero, creator of multiple epic Spectrum titles including the classic Midnight Resistance.

Jim is also heavily involved with the development of the ZX Spectrum Next, successfully crowdfunded earlier this year and due for release early next year.

Jonathan Cauldwell

Jonathan Cauldwell - creator of the 'Egghead' series of games for the Spectrum and also father of the excellent Arcade Game Designer. Jonathan is seen as one of the most prolific writers of Spectrum games out there at the moment and has been creating games for the machine since the late 80's and is still going strong. Jonathan has an extensive back catalogue and is currently working on a new 'Egghead' game which will be released for the Next. Something to look forward to!
