Rewatch Downunder Saturday 24th June B13 Star One

In Australia we got Seasons B and C in the same year so it wasn't as tough. Don't philosophise at me you electronic moron.

The BBC didn't have it, but it was out there for those in the – at that time very exclusive – computer industry. It was something my brother was part of and it was quite amazing what was available for them to play with. It took a long time for things to become commercially available. Like today, with all this supposedly amazing AI - yet anything I've seen is pretty rubbish.

Can't say I feel the call at all yet. Besides, I'm quite happy with my own intelligence. Maybe if you lack any... Don't philosophise at me you electronic moron.

It is, that's why I can't imagine what it was like back in the day in the UK, waiting for the next series. We only had to wait a few months in Australia between the two so they seemed to follow on quite smoothly with the sudden dramatic change in crew etc. Don't philosophise at me you electronic moron.

It must have been terribly distracting for quite a while there. Don't philosophise at me you electronic moron.
