Tarrant clearly knows that his brother is the champion of Teal. Very anxious to see the contest, while trying to pretend that he isn't. How does he think the others won't find out?

The voice over man speaking to Darvid the presenter is the Vinni actor.

Tarrant's not one for thinking. Or empathy. Or sense.

Welcome AnneArthur!



Not too bad, thanks Tyce, though I've got some nonsense going on that's not helping things.

Did you get the goat to keep the lawn down? We had a couple of goats when I was a in high school, except the bloke on the next property had a herd and ours kept running away to join them.

I just love how they have Tarrant's brother and he's like some sort of super famous super suave celebrity and as viewers we just have to accept it from the first frame. I don't think they even really introduce him? The show just acts like we already know.

It does that a few times, it's disconcerting but it works

That's interesting.

Thanks Virn for fixing my link. :-)

They also do the voices right at the start, when the proclamation of war is being transmitted to the Teal Star.

I like the way that they don't recognise Tarrant in a wig . . .

A wig doesn't cut it for me. Brothers would have to be twins to look so alike. Deeta nees a scar or something. And different make-up.

And different teeth. Not difficult to do with some sort of falsies.

I’m really sad. I can’t get to Leicester by Saturday for the sci-fi convention with Jan and Sally. :-g

You've had quite enough fun for one year! Get out there and mow something.

Cally was enjoying her quiet time I think

I don't like Avon's outfit here - those epaulettes are ridiculous.

Following the sopron adventure, she's decided to check out her rock & crystal collection.

Look at the colour palette in this scene! It's is pure 80s but right at the start in 1980. It's so beautiful too.

Otters' noses?

Otter noses? Like reindeer noses but with chili in them?

(It's the chili that makes them 'otter.)

What is that she's drinking? Looks like blood!
