The BBC costume Department got a work out in this episode. So did the scenery department. More is better in this episode.

Obviously cosplaying a character from the then current Star Trek incarnation, Star Trek: The Cavalier Years (probably some time travel series).

Is this a proper game of chess, are the moves right?

Can't speak for the entire game, but the final position of the Vila / Klut game, for which I have a screenshot, looks like a draw to me.

I've watched this a hundred times (literally) and just now caught why the bomb in Travis' arm doesn't go off.

You could call him the Blake's 7 Jar Jar Binks.

Jarriere is not decorative at all. It seems illogical for Servie to hang around here without a decorative one.
BTW decorative ones can also be slow-witted.

Travis is bugged. The mention of the bomb is for Krantor. Servie doesn't want the bomb to explode because she doesn't want to kill Docholi until she has his info, thus, she never arms the grenade.

Cold! You don't know the meaning of the word cold!
Cold is when you have ice on the INSIDE of your window!!

I love how Jan throws the drink near Sally, so as not to harm the costume.

If you take a close look at the actors, you can see the fit of giggles that they professionally hide.
It makes me giggle too every time.

Because it is a non-speaking role. (Or would that be a non-meowing role?)

your five million credits... forfeit...

Followed by a great fourth wall break by Paul.
