She must have been freezing in that frock! But she (Servalan) would die rather than admit it. It's part of her mystique. |

Just for once I would like them to indicate religion by something other than Gregorian chant. |

I still can’t believe Michael Keating has dementia. It can’t be real. :-( :-( :-( Oh, that's sad! I didn't know that. Yes, the last few years. After he had Covid early on he seemed to be in a bad way. His wife, Sue, was doing a lot of prompting when he was part of a Zoom convention. Now, from what the remaining others are saying, he's a lot worse. What Covid does to the brain seems to be one of the scariest things about it. Yes, Michael had it in the first year and wasn't well at all. He did manage to sign a photos for the convention. No idea how Ian Kubiak managed that. Lots of help from Sue I suspect. The long-term effects seem dire. Don't philosophise at me you electronic moron.

“That’s very kind of you madam, but not at the moment thank you.” Hilarious. |

This orbiter looks like a 1980s' disco floor.

Very convenient that the games happen to suit the team's strengths. |

Gambit is losing interest in the whole game of soldiers.

So Belkov escaped, nobody else gained anything, and only Gerren died? Rather a pointless exercise, wouldn't you say? Except that it has some of the best bits of B7.

Belkov is a pretty good character. It's always nice to when someone gives our heroes a run for their money.

Lovely re-watching with you. I’ll be in Tasmania next week so I will see you in a fortnight. |

Oh yes, the utter wastes of time are becoming typical, but this ep does it in such a charming way. Gambit is an excellent character also. All kudos to Rosalind Bailey.

You're sounding much less pressured I must say. Enjoy the rain and wear your wellies. Next week MsVirn! Enjoy Taswegia Tyce! Don't philosophise at me you electronic moron.
