Bye, Pilot. Hope you're better soon.

Same trays as were used in 'Assassin'. Genius idea, along with Vila's coffee-stirrers badge in The Way Back (when they still had a budget!) The coffee-stirrer was a brilliant idea. I don't mind the trays either. There is something about objects en masse that is so attractive. An artist whose work I saw in Basel did a couple of things with erasers. So wonderful! Don't philosophise at me you electronic moron.

On his lapel. I wonder if BBC canteen coffee-stirrers became collectible after that? Don't philosophise at me you electronic moron.

In our village pantomimes, it's a running joke that we try to spot what Karen (costumes) has re-used each year, and what it started out as originally - someone's curtains that they donated to us etc etc. "You're not sulking, I hope?"

Wish 'stardust blizzard fields' were real. I'd love to see them. I thought humans ARE stardust blizzard fields. Only when they've been vapourised back into stardust, surely? "We are stardust We are golden And we got to get ourselves Back to the garden." Joni Mitchell I love that song! Me too. Just our vintage and too young to be allowed to go. Ha ha, you're so right! There is no point being grown up if you can't be childish sometimes

On his lapel. I wonder if BBC canteen coffee-stirrers became collectible after that? His very first scene. I think he's in the same outfit all the way through until 'The Web', when he shows off his new one to Cally (with unfortunate results).

What a great laugh. Avon does have a very well-developed sense of the ludicrous.

That is such a good episode. I'm not sure if I'll be around next week - my brother and his partner are coming to visit, and they are very much morning people. I'll try to suggest that they turn up at 11, but I doubt I'll have much luck in getting them to stick to it. |

Get well soon, Pilot. Hopefully he’s not as I’ll as the pilot who gets the yellow custard virus in Children of (M)auron. |

I know, but I don't think he's doing either Clint or Burt here, though. Someone else, just not sure who. Don't philosophise at me you electronic moron.

He's getting quite close to the edge now. Servalan is making a fool of him rather too often these days, and he isn't coping well with the knowledge. |
