Welcome home. :-) Did you have a good trip?

Servalan vs Dayna scene. Excellent writing. We Brits are so good at using politeness to insult people.

At last! Great photos, Obsidian. Did you find the entry lock?

So glad I paid for the Premium Economy on the way back. Felt human instead of the usual piece of garbage. Return flights to Australia are hideous.

So that's Tarrant getting aboard Libby?

No, but I found a moon disc.

I’m also very impressed with how Josette held her own in that scene. It must be very difficult for a newbie who is also a bit younger than the regular actor to turn up on day one and be so confident.

Explaining that probably needs whole fanfic.

It’s almost a pity Avon was worried he’d ‘be dead in a week’ because otherwise he could’ve switched sides and change the course of the show with him and Servalan ruling the Federation. LOL

This question isn’t meant to be rude, even though it might sound it, but was Bamburg Beach chosen because it was the only one (or at least one of only very few beaches) in the UK with sand.

Only Servalan would be so mean as to play hide and seek with a blind man.

Absolutely not! We have lots of sandy beaches, and the ones in the north (like Bamburgh) are often undeveloped and fabulously wild/windswept/romantic and beautiful. Avoid the south coast, though, lots of gravel and shingle.

Not true. It's Australian bigotry has promulgated this cobblers about UK beaches not having sand. Where did sand castles comes from if not the Brits on hols? Here's Broadstairs.

The film crew did a great job of keeping the castle out of shots.

We’ll for my part at least it wasn’t bigotry, it was experience. Every beach I went to had pebbles.

Hee hee, you make it sound like they were herding it from one place to another to keep it out of sight.

Sorry about that. And even Broadstairs is full of beach trash like huts, donkeys, people etc. Better off up here where there's nobody spoling the view, absolutely nothing to do and (sadly) no ice cream sellers.
