Tarrant gets a solo scene - and is out-acted by a computer.

Ms. Virn thanks for that clarification regarding name change of Servalan.

Tyce, so sorry that you won't be with us again. That's a real shame. Hope all is well with you.

My main problem with it is that it's so slow and stilted; it's as if they're speaking slowly instead of padding.

Tyce I've been to Quybeanne ( apologies for the miss spelling) years ago. Nice neat town, narrow streets though. Nice friendly people.

OOO! Handbags at dawn. May I point out that in a few episodes time Servalan won't be quite so contemptuous of our Tarrant?

Blame the Director?

No, no you miss read my message. I was being sarcastic. I was bemoaning the fact that the week that I’m available is the week that we get to rewatch Animals. LOL

Agreed Queanbeyan is a nice place. I lived there for about 5 years. Sadly it is very low lying, and the town that always gets flooded when there is heavy rain.

Yes, I think we have to, but it seems as though there's not enough script and that they didn't have enough time to rehearse. Of course, there were all the Cally/Dayna script changes that can't have helped.

Only because she wants to use him and get the gun. Decorative, remember?

Well all yet another great rewatch & I must be off. Saturdays for me are busy so come night times my eyes get heavy.
Great seeing you all as always, fun too.
Have a great weekend ahead one & all.
To our neighbours up North stay safe & above waters....

And the red on Justin’s outfit is nice and bright!

It just reminds me horribly of a very bright, 1970s' dental hygienist's outfit.

Another plus: Servie's beautiful feather cape.

But (as she admits herself) having got the gun, she finds she can't use it. More than just decorative, I would say.

Another case – very common in Australia – of idiots building in a flood plain. It's not called a flood plain for nothing.

For me, the worst bit is the 'brainwashing'. The script for that exchange is SO SLOW and OVERDONE. Not even Jacs can overcome it!

Agreed. And don’t get me started on which idiot decided to plant European crops in Australia (which is 90% desert) so that as soon as there’s a drought everything dies and farmers go bankrupt and our food supply is stuffed (again).

The Ogg monsters, like the decimas, feel grief.

Don't let TT hear you calling Og a monster!

Justin really is a piece of work - but the Dayna relationship makes him even more creepy. If it had been Cally he had been involved with, we would be focussing on the ethics of his work with the animals, rather than his involvement with a minor.

Jacs is SO good in this. Again. She says so much without speaking - which is what Justin - and on this occasion, most of the rest - don't manage to do. I wonder what her opinion of the episode was!

For someone who doesn't know much, Ardus knows a lot about Bucol 2. Wouldn't be in the script just for a bit of exposition, would he? Oh, and for showcasing Servie's evil deeds.
