An episode of high collars and red roses, puppeteers and clone masters. And the eponymous Weapon...

I thought I'd come early so I dont forget.....

Hi Tyce!
Happy Easter / Passover /Ramadan Smile

Hi, almost forgot about the rewatch - busy looking at other stuff on the site. How's things downunder? All better now Tyce?
"You're not sulking, I hope?"
 
M1795537OCVirn
What are the chances of starting on time? Even with the 30minute extension people will be late. I say three's a quorum - let's GO!

Travisina
Okay, starting... NOW!

Morning. Here early for once. Are we starting? I'll just grab the DVD . ...
 
Travisina
The weather is GORGEOUS today, and I'm feeling warm for the first time in weeks. Months. Smile
How's everyone else?

Hi Anne! Just starting. Great explosion, and very appropriate outfits for a Beta grade engineer and former slave.
Theory - those aren't their real clothes, they stole / appropriated them to help them get away. Fan fic awaits...

I like this episode. If this had been Star Trek, the Blake clone would have been done to death - we'd have known his whole history. Sometimes the relative lack of continuity is a good thing.
 
M1795537OCVirn
Sunshine? Don't know what you're talking about. Cloudy here in the North.

OK, where are they hiding that pipe organ?

I agree. So much more scope for the imagination (paraphrasing Anne of Green Gables) - and for fan speculation.

In their collars.

I like that theory. And exactly the sort of clothes Coser would have chosen too - grandiose and impractical.

It's a lovely day here too.

My siblings are similarly inclined Grin

I love Avon in plain black jumper. Suits him far better than the more extreme costumes.

It's a week of grandiose costumes - the Clonemaster is also very OTT. And I had forgotten the sub-LOTR music.
 
Tyce
Is everyone well? I'm talking but here.
 
AnneArthur
That poor clone!
 
M1795537OCVirn
That decorative? thing around Clly's neck is only connected to the dress at the front. Could be awkward.

Travisina
Such a different version of Travis. Physical, disrespectful, shouty. On balance, that's probably a good thing - Brian had to make Travis his own, rather than attempting to emulate Stephen Greif.

Yes I'm better thanks. I was pretty bad for a while but I'm good now.

Within reasonable parameters.
Enjoying the sunshine (sorry, M...Virn!), recovered from tummy bug - and it's Passover, which I love.

It's very impractical. But Avon is looking good - I agree that plain black suits him. And I like Vila's clothes this week too.

Glad to hear you have nice weather Travisina.

Travis had to be very careful where he held Servalan's neck - trying not to squash the 'collar' - presumably Costume Dept is even more scary than the Supreme Commander.

Pretty though.

But what are the odds of Blake and his clone both wearing the same outfit?

They can be ferocious, costume and hair & make-up people!

Agreed!
Sorry I'm late everyone. I had an audio disc stuck in the external drive and had to restart everything to get it out and the DVD in! The audio was a Big Finish, Crossfire. Annoying as they keep referring to 'infarctions' when they actually mean 'infractions'...
Zooming ahead to wherever you are.
Don't philosophise at me you electronic moron.

A million to one? I'd have preferred it the Clonemasters had given Clone Blake some sort of simple robe (oh alright, with a high collar if you must) - but probably would have slowed down the filming if Gareth had to keep changing outfits.

I like the way Servalan touches Travis's chest. Very sexy.

Well done Obsidian, you'll be getting your Techie badge any day now. Glad you could join us - wouldn't be the same without you.

Hi Obsidian. Erk, sorry about your tech problems.
Clonemaster Fen is talking about the Rule of Life.
