UK time 10.30am In which Travis tries to outwit the Judgement Programme, Blake tries to think, we find out what Egrorian's previous job was, and Servalan looks gorgeous in white. Again. Join us for B7's only courtroom drama. "You're not sulking, I hope?"

I make some allowances for PD's appearances as grumphy Judge Prentice in Law & Order UK. However, shouldn't we, at the usual viewing hour, be tuned in to the Great Drama in the Abbey instead??? Don't philosophise at me you electronic moron.

I was going to ask for your forgiveness, because I am watching the coronation, not Trial, today - but it looks as though you are sort of watching it also. And I believe that it is common knowledge that Princess Anne travelled to the coronation on a special gilded Broomstick of State. Personally, I was rather taken by her fetching bicorne hat.

Tyce isn't here so maybe we can agree that he's thick. Maybe 'short-sighted' is more diplomatic. Don't philosophise at me you electronic moron.

We are doing double-watches. I'm glad you noticed PA's hat. I thought she looked terribly Hogwarts. Don't philosophise at me you electronic moron.
