Rewatch Australia: B11 Gambit Saturday 11th June 2022, 10.30am (UK) / 7.30pm (Australia) In which the search for Star One leads to Freedom City, where the girls get dressed up, Orac gets dressed down, and Avon and Vila visit the casino... There is no point being grown up if you can't be childish sometimes

Sending apologies again - I'm going out this morning. Enjoy the rewatch, I'll catch up with the thread later. It's one of my fave eps, so here's a couple of Fibs: I love Gambit. Orac shrinks, Vila plays speed chess and Avon spits out his pudding! I love Gambit. Servalan is lady in red, while Docholli struggles with coat!

Hello, I am here and ready. Looking forward to joining in with you for a change Hi meegat! So glad you could be here. I'm just getting set up – been out soldering. So much to do before I get on the plane for the UK. Sorry to miss you Travisina. It won't be long now... Don't philosophise at me you electronic moron.

H Obsidian, I don't mind, we can start at 10.40? How are you? I feel so guilty for hardly ever taking part any more. I have started dong Parkrun every Saturday and it's not practical to do the rewatch as well unfortunately. Hubbie has gone metal detecting today and I couldn't motivated myself to go on my own. Not very flattering I know... |

Docholli's an Aussie? Did they still have Aussies in the third calendar?

Hello everyone - late as usual, I'm afraid. I like Travis's hat in this one - suits him. And I didn't recognise Blake's lawyer in the man whose leg Docholli rebuilt - thanks for pointing that out, Obsidian. |

How's everyone? Ignore my question regarding timing MsVirn. It seems we're all caught up, or close to. Krantor has just invited the Supreme Commander to take a seat – or a bed. Don't philosophise at me you electronic moron.

Docholli's an Aussie? Did they still have Aussies in the third calendar? We'll probably all be Chinese by then, which is wholly in keeping with Mr. D's ideas on how things pan out. Don't philosophise at me you electronic moron.

I like Servalan's eyeshadow - she's really pulling out all the stops this week. And of course the only episode where she isn't wearing black or white - because those are the colours everyone else is wearing. |

They're a nice after thought. Don't philosophise at me you electronic moron.

A) I don't mind pausing with HER on screen - not at all. B ) She can have anything she wants: doves, no problem Planets: easy peasy. Blake: just wait, he'll make a mess of something soon. "You're not sulking, I hope?"

Such an adorable little Orac. I have the Lego one. Wonder if I can take it to the Casino Canberra and win at Blackjack?

Now they need someone who can work on the theory of molecular reduction so that they can reduce Orac permanently and make it/him so much easier to carry. I bet Dorian could have done it.

Avon's eyeliner is rather fetching this week too. I have to say his eyebrows seems quite bushy. Do they get thinner in series four? Ii wonder if they have been emphasized with makeup? |

I imagine you're right. Dorian didn't have too many other things to worry about other than rounding up prey. Don't philosophise at me you electronic moron.
