Sort of. Yes, but it's possible that different terminology became fashionable - like the different army uniforms.

I could a B7 costume sometime. :-) Agreed, creepy. How are you AA? I am fine, thank you, Tyce - my teaching has started again, but is going well (I think). How are you? Good to hear about your teaching. Yes, I’m well thank you. I’m having my gallbladder out in a couple of weeks, but apart from that I’m fine.

No, it's nothing to do with her initially, but she does want to be and is referred to as being an 'Empress'. Until then, the Federation appears to be run by a High Council and President. Don't philosophise at me you electronic moron.

No. Theirs were covered in squirted-on trails while this has attached cables. Don't philosophise at me you electronic moron.

Commissioner Sleer was going to be a new character because there was some uncertainty as to whether or not Jacks would be returning for this series. I think it suits her new guise.
