I wonder if Auron did lots of scientific research. This pulse signal and later on the cloning. |

One of the main reasons I don't like VftP is because it has so much wasted potential. It should have been a brilliant revisiting of 'The Way Back' as well as being a political thriller. It could have been very dark and shocking. 'Edge of Darkness'-type thrilling. The darker the better as far as I'm concerned. Yep, I agree. There is no point being grown up if you can't be childish sometimes

Hello everyone - sorry I'm late as usual. We've actually had some nice weather the last couple of days, although it seems to have reverted to grey today. No idea what to pack in my suitcase. 😬 No idea what to wear from one day to the next. I've changed my top three times so far this morning, 'cos I'm going out straight after the rewatch. Yesterday was lovely - met up with Tyce in London, and we walked for miles along and across the Thames. Today is grey, chilly, going to rain. So glad you met up with Tyce, Travisina. If you've got a contact for her, please let her know that there are Forever Avon tickets on Eventbrite. That's if she's decided to stay that long. Don't philosophise at me you electronic moron.

Hey Mrs. Bookmark & all almost didn't make but glad I did. How's everyone? Watching the Queens platinum Jubalee anyone? Here I'd say about 60% will be watching it tomorrow night. Hi Pilot! I've seen bits of it, but not very much. I've mostly been watching the tennis. |

But not the style. Or the charisma. Any country would be honoured to have her in charge. She brings order, peace, stability and very special frocks. "You're not sulking, I hope?"

We had a brilliant day: managed to get near St Paul's to join the flag-waving crowds as the cars went past en route to yesterday's Jubilee service Then we did a tour of the Globe Theatre, had lunch on the South Bank, visited the location where Jenna and Cally were chucked out of Freedom City (more or less - it's been redeveloped into a skate-board area), then walked up to Forbidden Planet. I left her buying up the contents of the Harry Potter Shop at Kings Cross Platform 9 3/4... There is no point being grown up if you can't be childish sometimes

Good morning! I'm here for a change (though this is my 2nd-least-favourite ep in the entire series). How is everybody? Hi Travisina. Which is your least favourite? Actually, this is my 3rd-least-favourite. Least favourite is Animals, 2nd least is Moloch, so this is 3rd. One of the main reasons I don't like VftP is because it has so much wasted potential. It should have been a brilliant revisiting of 'The Way Back' as well as being a political thriller. And in the end it's a load of weird costumes and accents, and Vila being galactically stupid. I agree. It seemed rushed and not well paced...and should have been so much deeper. Bringing up all the events from The Way Back and with all the old style look. It should have been more. I still like the ep ok. It's mid-range for me. ANIMALS is awful. |

For the sceptics, Avon and Jenna are being rather stupid. No-one is coming out of this well. |

Travis is a bit duff in this. I like both of them for different reasons, but, yes, Stephen is harder. Don't philosophise at me you electronic moron.

I like Servalan's dress with the big buttons. Me too. It has a nice 'military' look. I love that she's still playing with the flower Carnell gave her. Feels like that's some puppeteering going on behing the scenes... There is no point being grown up if you can't be childish sometimes
