The answer to the first part of the Avon's tunic thing is that Tarrant and Dayna take them from the trussed-up Helots. The Helot got his from Space KMart. The Helots don't strike me as being very fashion conscious. One was. Before he was adapted he opted for the same navy blue leather as Avon did in S2/B. Ah - you mean to say that he was wearing something that was fashionable at least two years before?  |

Who knew? Pink, green and silver cachous will reverse the effects of Pylene 50. If only they worked on bronchitis.
Don't philosophise at me you electronic moron.

But Pylene is a stroke of luck for her - she's too useful for many questions to be asked. Servalan makes her own 'luck'. "You're not sulking, I hope?"

'Helots' has always bothered me. Apparently a class of serfs in ancient Sparta, between citizens and slaves. |

Jacqueline Pearce didn't like the eye make-up because she thought it made her look like a drag queen, but I think it goes very nicely with Servie's new identity. I'd love the whole outfit.

Anti-vaxxers would be shocked at Tarrant. 'Some new drug' - what does it contain, has it been properly tested, etc.? Far too trusting of Big Pharma . . . |

Or does Forbus have an artistic streak? Exactly – cachous. Probably 30mg, 60mg and 90mg, or similar. Different dosages. Don't philosophise at me you electronic moron.

She does look increasingly like a drag queen as the series progresses, but it's not really the eye make-up that is the deciding factor. |

Helots were considered to be a warrior group from Helos who were captured by the Spartans and made slaves of. It's the warrior aspect that Holmes is referring to here.

One of the better endings to an episode, I feel. At least he isn't smiling.

Back to the beloved quarry next time for the make-up extravaganza. Keep pushing the fluids, Obsidian. Hope you're better soon. Great to hear from you all, even Pilot - guess he went to bed again. Have a great week. "You're not sulking, I hope?"

Hi all, Sorry to have missed this ep and your company again! As M...Virn explained, I had my flu+Covid jabs on Tuesday, and had quite a rough reaction. I don't *think* it was the Covid jab (new m-RNA variant, not an actual virus) - got a sore arm (still a bit sore, TBH) and that was about it - same as last time. My guess it was the flu jab, because that would have been actual (albeit deactivated) virus, and my symptoms were definitely flu-like - fever, shivers, fatigue, loss of appetite, generally feeling rotten. It may have been exacerbated by having the covid jab at the same time, but I didn't really question that, because there are plenty of other vaccines given simultaneously, eg the MMR. And before I went to Egypt I had 4 in one go at the travel clinic - one in each arm, one in my bum and one on a lump of sugar! That was fun. So anyway, thanks for your kind wishes. I'm feeling a lot better today, though still taking it easy. Other replies on this thread to follow... There is no point being grown up if you can't be childish sometimes

Just trying to re call this episode? Darn I'm way,way too early yet again. Trust me to be early. I tried to get onto other members here took the liberty of inviting them to join in but no takers, think they may have other plans. Hope all are well, Tyce are you ok with the N.S.W. floods? Saw the floods on the news, most of Victoria is suffering severe floods & over 1200 homes & businesses are affected as well as live stock. Here where I live we've only had medium rain fall no where near as our interstate counterparts. See you all soon.... I'll be back! Well apart from the ABBA festival being cancelled because Trundle is under water, I’m good. In fact it actually sunny here in Canberra. Glad you're okay, Tyce. Shame about the ABBA festival, though.

Sorry I'm late. Testing negative for covid for some days now - hooray! And I've got a working fridge, shower and washing machine now. I just need to get a plumber to fix my leaky tap - which is proving harder than you would think. They all seem to be booked up for weeks. Hi Anne, good news about the dreaded covid. Good luck with getting a plumber! There is no point being grown up if you can't be childish sometimes

Hi, Anne! I've decided not to tell Travisina that had my flu jab, too, but had absolutely no reaction whatsoever, not even a sore arm. (Shh!) I think people who have 'flu and Covid jabs at the same time - as she did - might feel it more, though. My husband never reacts to jabs, either. And he didn't even catch Covid off me when I had it. Amazing resilience! I'm not jealous at all... really... There is no point being grown up if you can't be childish sometimes

I like this episode - it's much the best one in the first half of series 4, I think. A lot of nice details. I agree. Lots of character and story set ups, and the exterior fight scenes are possibly the best in the whole of B7. And I like the music. There is no point being grown up if you can't be childish sometimes
