Rewatch Australia: D11 Orbit Saturday 10th December 2022, 9.30am (UK) / 8.30pm (Australia) In which we find out how much Vila weighs, and why it matters... There is no point being grown up if you can't be childish sometimes

Hi, Tyce, I'm OK. Also late - was looking at the Advent Calendar.... Are we going to wait or start? "You're not sulking, I hope?"

Hi, Tyce, I'm OK. Also late - was looking at the Advent Calendar.... Are we going to wait or start? Obsidian won’t be joining us. Her cat is desperately ill and will be being put down tomorrow. She has my sympathies. So it might be just us so let’s start. :-) |

Apologies from Travisina, she's up to her usual tricks. And, of course, gallivanting off to the BFI in London with the SC and others to watch Jacqueline Pearce in 'The Precious Things' and I CAN'T GO. Argh! They'd better give me a full report later. "You're not sulking, I hope?"

Oh poor Obsidian! My borther is not arriving until 12, so I think I have time to watch this before I get started cooking, then getting all the junk out of my sitting room and making the place habitable. |

I've started. Vila has, fatefully, said that he wants to stay with Avon, where it's safe. They are just parleying with Egrorian. |

Three start systems doesn't really sound like a long way. |

Hi, Anne. One of my favourite episodes today. Love John Savident's Egroroian, ably supported by 'Pindar'. Not to mention some brilliant stuff from Servalan, of course. Oh, and I think Avon and Vila have a slight tiff somewhere along the line, don't they?

Oh, and I think Avon and Vila have a slight tiff somewhere along the line, don't they? Yes, it's another great episode. Egrorian is wonderfully creepy, and especially his horrible relationship with Pindar - and it's a wonderful Servalan episode. |

Vila is trying to sacrifice poor Soolin and Dayna to Egrorian. LOL

So glad we're on the same page, Anne. Some people seem to think the Avon/Vila thing is the important bit.

The tachyone funnel looks rather like my school's video recorder - it sat on a trolley rather like that, so that it can be pushed from classroom to classroom. |

The scene where Egrorian punishes Pindar is really horrible. |

Also her expression, the minute she has her back to Egrorian. |

That frock is borderline 'wardrober malfunction' though. I seem to remember that it develops rather more support as the episode proceeds. (Not that she'd have bothered). Edited by M1795537OCVirn on 10-12-2022 09:59 "You're not sulking, I hope?"

It's a small thing. but the cameraderie between Dayna and Soolin is a rather nice feature of this series. Jenna and Cally never got on, and she was really too depressed in series 3 to bond with Dayna. |

Although it's a tribute to Servalan's power over even inanimate items of clothing that she gets away with it. |

The only way they can have everything they want is to point, the tachyon funnel at someone and threaten them, I don’t think I believe Vila would be that much of a bully. |

Is that the approach to Moonbase, or are we about to fall inside a huge worm-like thingy?

Hi, Pilot. So sorry to hear you're unwell again. Perhaps this time you'd better take things easy for a while Coughing all day takes it out of you.

Be great if we could see each other live, I know it's hard for most due to great distances & commitments etc. Just a thought.
