Funny how having lived with Covid for two years that it seems inconceivable that people were getting close and not wearing masks in Survivors. Probably wouldn’t have struck me more than two years ago. Fabulous women’s clothes.

At least the first episode is also on Daily Motion in far better quality:# https://www.dailymotion.com/video/x7u...eo/x7utged I actually do have the DVD, but I haven't them with me in my Fuhlsbüttel exile (and they wouldn't be of any use to me as there is also no DVD player in this flat).

I was scratching my head for a few days, but now I think I know it! It's cropped differently, isn't it? Previously, the second eye wasn't visible!

You also have to remember that this is fiction and being acted by actors who would not approve of their faces being covered while they worked. It's one thing to be playing a doctor or scientist with a mask, but the entire crew? We'd never be able to know one from the other! LOL Resist the Host
