"His business is salvage, Dayna. Same as ours." Vila hasn't learned his lesson not to give away their names. |

Tarrant sounds like he has a cold. If you spent all that time in the snow, wouldn’t you have a cold? Snow feels cold, it doesn't give you a cold, dear. "You're not sulking, I hope?"

Hello everyone. Sorry to hear you've been ill, Obsidian. And I hope the new machine does what it's meant to. I have just spent an insane amount on a new boiler (well, not an insance amount for a new boiler, but they are expensive). But it is nice to have hot water again! I know the Liberator is The Ship, but I always have a soft spot for Scorpio. Hi AA, I hope you are well. |

That's right, Avon. Leadership 101: give them stuff to do and they'll stay out of your way.

It's Vila who explains that only the flight deck is pressurised "on these old cargo ships". Which I suppose ties in with him knowing something about spaceships in Stardrive. Funny he never volunteered to learn how to pilot the Liberator... ; D |

I want to see what the micro-grenade looks like popping out of that gun.

"Lift, you scruffy bag of bolts! Lift!" "Scruffy bag of bolts" gets used again later in the series. |

It seems you understand what I mean about poorer: empty pockets, empty piggy banks etc. Glad to hear you have hot water again. Life is really miserable without it and boiling kettles isn't fun.

If Cally was still around she'd probably get taken over by the Sea Creature.

Scorpio descends a long, long way. Why is that base so far underground? |

This Dorian chap has a promising name, and he has a main squeeze. Very unusual for B7.

Dorian looks a lot better in red than Tarrant did. Funny how colour works, isn't it?

Steven and Josette must’ve got very tired walking up and down those stairs. I mean the BBC probably only had one flight so that every time they wanted to film them some more they would’ve had to walk back up and start again. |

Right. These new costumes. Are the men's jackets sleeveless? They match the jackets but I get the impression they're part of the next layer of clothing underneath. |
