By now Servie must realise she is in charge of a pack of school kids.
Don't philosophise at me you electronic moron.

Thanks Obsidian. The trooper helmets look wrong without that green band thing. Commander Mori knows about Orac... Why don't they have them? Lost? New client-friendly uniform design? "You're not sulking, I hope?"

31m: A rare case of Cally using her telepathy! Imagine how often they would have more wins if they let Cally BE Cally and embrace her weird alien skills They are very inconsistent. |

33m: MORI: So this is your magic computer Orac? ORAC: I assume your use of the word magic means that I am incomprehensible to you. I am simply the sum of the thousands of data stores which are available to me. Hah, ORAC really is a smug annoyance |

At least they use the right sort of numbers for grid references this week. Except that in space, I'd expect 3-dimensional ones.

The whale space cruiser... I see it as styled on a crocodile canoe prow. Doesn't look like a whale at all. Maybe an icthyosaur. Don't philosophise at me you electronic moron.

Why don't they have them? Lost? New client-friendly uniform design? Different uniforms for different units? They do the same in 'Rumours', to help distinguish the rebel fighters from the real troopers. |

It's totally a space whale shape If it's a whale, it's head is on sideways, showing what looks a bit like the baleen. Anyway, the back half isn't whale-y at all. It's a cut-and-shunt ship!.

Slave refused to answer anyone but Dorian, until Avon reprogammed it. But Orac will talk (down) to anyone. |

Or we'd have lots of her 'thinking' ... Avon? Avon? Tarrant? Dayna? because NOBODY LISTENS. "You're not sulking, I hope?"

It's silly how the Battle Commander is calling Servalan by her name, rather than 'Madam President' or 'President Servalan'. MInd you, Servalan did the same earlier. |

Then again, HE is a bit sloppy. Maybe they were in infant school together. Don't philosophise at me you electronic moron.

Something I pointed out earlier, when you apparently had better things to do. Also, she can call anyone anything she likes, while they should remember who is in charge. Or else.

45m: Troopers have Cally and ORAC hostage under the volcano. I love how budget that is... ORAC is literally one of the most valuable objects in the galaxy and he's just chilling on a rock in a cave |
