Rewatch Downunder Saturday 5th August C6 Cityat the Edge of the World
M1795537OCVirn
Start time: Downunder 7.30pm, UK 10.30am.

Join us for an introduction to Bayban's idea of how to get along with the neighbours.

Most of this one is about doors. Locked doors, open doors, invisible doors - and who do we know that can open any door? Yes, of course, we are relying on Vila, for once, to solve the problem and get the girl.

I’m here, but I confess I’m rather distracted on something else.

Hi MsVirn, hi Tyce.

I'm a bit distracted here, too. Cleaning some earrings. I hope you're both well.
Don't philosophise at me you electronic moron.

I’m good thanks. I saw some of your beautiful earings on Facebook today. Hi Ms Virn.

Hello, both. How are you? And what's so distracting that Vila being the hero can't make you glued to the screen. Not that I've started yet. Should we?

Meanwhile, Tarrant's thugging Vila.

'And less reason to care?' might seem almost out of character for Avon, for anyone who didn't know him from 45 years of watching him

Bullying behaviour highlights Tarrant's own lack of self-confidence. Or maybe self-worth. Perhaps that's what Federation training does to people.

Tarrant's version of diplomacy – get someone else to do it.

Nice styrofoam box. But I'm enjoying Chris Boucher's cutting writing already.

She'd want to, But would she manage to get past (through?) Tarrant alone? She'd need Avon's support, I think. I also think she'd get it.

Bayban and Sherm are rather wonderful.

Actually, wearing all that plastic they probably wouldn't smell all that good. Sweaty.

Maybe I should have asked WHY she put it there? In case Bayban was hungry while waiting?

The filming was done at a reservoir near Ripon, Yorkshire.

Maybe Kerrill's like a sort of human sopron - makes herself whatever she needs to be for her companion. A survival trait.

I certainly don't see her dressing up for Bayban, so yes, maybe.

As Avon has realised, Vila is often the difference between winning and losing, even if he's not always centre stage. He's useful, and that matters.

I was trying to find a photo, but couldn't do so quickly, of the mausoleum of Ayatollah Khomeini and assorted other Iranian saints and notable. The latticework and green lighting of this inner room are exactly the same.

Dyall sounds as good as he looks. Excellent casting for both roles.

Suicide stunts your growth! I’ll have to remember that. LOL

Perhaps seeing it somewhere (news story?) it had lodged in the designer's memory. I like the lighting effect, either way.
