I remember when our tekkie ( Andy - they're always called Andy) drilled holes in the actual stage of our village hall and stuffed them with things that went BANG later in the performance (it was a pantomime!). Nearly got us banned from the place. "You're not sulking, I hope?"

Alpha Grade Posts: 8709 Joined: 16.01.22	When I was watching this on Saturday, it occurred to me that the decision to put Servalan in flowing white draperies might owe something to advance publicity for Star Wars, with Princess Leia in flowing white draperies. It got a rather cold reaction, but I'm not convinced that it's ridiculous. What do people think?

For me, this echoes not Leia but Darth Vader boarding the rebel spaceship at the beginning of Star Wars, albeit with inverted colours.

I guess so, but remember this followed Survivors, where the first series (the only Terry was involved in) had two female leads out of three, and Abby Grant - the leader - was hardly whiter than white.
