The Bobbsy Twin outfits for Avon and Soolin are also really smart. Very cute. Now we won't get confused about who is on which side. Khaki with sparkles. Perfect for barren planets. Don't philosophise at me you electronic moron.

I like Soolin's amusement when Avon says that he is prepared to sacrifice her. She is a match for him, and knows it. |

Why does that base have a teleport bay? Sorry...why did that base have a teleport bay? Did Dorian not build it for the teleport he was developing. Ah, of course. I'd forgotten we were on Xenon. "You're not sulking, I hope?"

Ok, who wrote the soppy Zeeona/ Tarrant music? Soppy music for a soppy relationship? That's the killer thing about it, though. It looks soppy and it sounds soppy. Are we sorry? How do you mean sorry? About what happens to it. Well, it's Tarrant, so yes, I do, on the whole. |

Zukan is wear a hearing aid. He's an interesting character. I like his speech about Betafarl's permanent day - he clearly wasn't born there, but seems to have conquered it. It would be interesting to know in what circiumstances. |

Oh come on Soolin could shoot all those guards in a space of three seconds, without even blinking. |

Servalan looks good in that frock. Her make-up is a bit shiny though.

So Servalan has left...forever! And it's the end for Betchworth quarry, too. So sad! "You're not sulking, I hope?"

If Zukan is complaining about the bad dreams, he has when he does nasty things and why doesn’t he just stop doing nasty things? |

I don't think you understand what being a ruthless dictator is all about... It's tough, evidently. There's a conscience of sorts, it's not plugged into the correct jack, that's all. Don't philosophise at me you electronic moron.

Zukan assumes everyone has the same nasty motives as he has.

Opening the airlock really shouldn't do that to Zukan's ship - very poorly designed, I think. But perhaps the bomb exploded as he was expelling it? |

Environmental, or exogenous, effects are what affects the majority of us 'mad' folks, rather than endogenous. Don't philosophise at me you electronic moron.

Before we all head off, I need to ask if anybody has looked at my friend’s illustration on the advent calendar thread? I would love to give him some feedback. (preferably positive feedback)

The moral of the episode? PPE is important, folks. Right, then. Not much point watching the last bit of B7, since Servalan isn't in it. "You're not sulking, I hope?"

(preferably positive feedback) Avon's hair is a bit too black, and not blowing romantically in the wind, but otherwise it's fun and captures the mood quite well. "You're not sulking, I hope?"

It is, and Zeeona's gruesome end is an indicator that things are unlikely to get any better. There's such foreboding in it that the jaunty Series D/4 music seems rather tasteless. Don't philosophise at me you electronic moron.

Agreed, but Tarrant gives in so easily. i mean, Zeeona is clearly the love of his life... "You're not sulking, I hope?"
