There is also an omnibus on Thursday at 10.20 p.m. which apparently has extra sex, but that clashes with The Sopranos. -- Harriet "I can tell that you're not really interested." - Marvin, HHGTTG

Fwd: [B7L] Vila's outfit change after teleporting to Terminal

I always think of this one when watching the start of Redemption: Orac does the prediction thing - we're all going to die! So what do we do, but head en masse to the Wardrobe room for a complete change of image ... <Does it fly?> <grin> no sillier than anything I could come up with. Now explain Jenna's lightning-change-while-teleporting act in The Keeper. _________________________________________________________________ Get your FREE download of MSN Explorer at http://explorer.msn.com/intl.asp

Dorian and the slime monster
by Helen Atkins 04 Nov '01

Perhaps Dorian kept Soolin around for the same reason I keep a first aid kit in my car - a second best option, but useful until you can arrange something better in an emergency. _________________________________________________________________ Get your FREE download of MSN Explorer at http://explorer.msn.com/intl.asp

Vila's outfit change after teleporting to Terminal
by Nicola Mody-Nikoloff 04 Nov '01

04 Nov '01

Just for a laugh, I've got an explanation for this 'blooper'. In 'Terminal', Vila wears a loose Russian-style (side-fastening) tunic over a black shirt. In 'Rescue', he's wearing an earlier season 3 outfit (worn in 'Ultraworld' and 'Moloch'). I've got a theory which is in character. The enzymes are already eating through the flight deck walls, and Zen has said the Liberator won't survive breaking orbit. Vila knows he will have to abandon ship. He's a very cautious lad and doesn't like the cold, once turning his thermal suit up so high he almost suffered nasty burns. He also remembers his mother's warnings about wearing clean underwear in case of accident or arrest, and having a good stock of it. So he dashes off to his cabin, strips to his underpants, puts several clean pairs on over them, then a spare outfit just in case Terminal is chilly (he chooses one which earlier fitted so nicely under a Fed trooper uniform), then the quite loose outfit he just took off. Of course, before leaving his cabin, he also makes sure he's got his emergency lockpicks, his credit card, and some spare socks. Once in the Terminal base, of course he overheats and takes off the top outfit, which gets left behind later in the bombed ruins. Does it fly? Nico *** This e-mail is privileged and confidential.

Can't remember whether anyone's mentioned it yet, but Glynis Barber is in a new soap on ITV which starts on Tuesday. It seems to run three times a week, Tuesday to Thursday, at 5.05 p.m. -- Harriet "I knew you weren't really interested." - Marvin, HHGTTG

Make up piccies
by Steve Rogerson 04 Nov '01

04 Nov '01

This message appeared on the Cult TV list - can anyone help? "I've just come back from Memorabilia at the NEC and think I've managed to stumble across something rather rare from Blake's Seven. I bought 3 polaroid photos, each signed by Jan Chappell, at 4 quid each. The first is a photo from Sarcophagus showing Jan in full make up, signed on the front by Jan Chappell. On the back somebody (Jan?) has written 'Original polaroid for make up purposes Circa 1979'. The second is another photo of Jan in full make up, also from Sarcophagus, also signed on the front. This one also has, in the same handwriting as the signature, 'Sarcophagus Blakes Seven BBC original'. The third is a location photo of Jan from Terminus, again, signed by her on the front. In pencil along the bottom, somebody has written 'Cost. Terminal Down The Hatch' and along the top it has 'Unique BBC costume polaroid 1979'. Would I be right in thinking that these are photos that would've been taken for make up and costume tests and continuity at the time of the productions? Does anybody know if there are many of them knocking about, or have I stumbled across a rarity? Any ideas?" -- cheers Steve Rogerson http://homepages.poptel.org.uk/steve.rogerson Redemption 03, 21-23 February 2003, Ashford, Kent Celebrating 25 years of Blake's 7 and 10 years of Babylon 5 http://www.smof.com/redemption

Does the Thing refuse to eat people in dirty clothes or sommat? _________________________________________________________________ Get your FREE download of MSN Explorer at http://explorer.msn.com/intl.asp

I thought to keep them at ease, I mean wasnt it because he was having a bath or sommat that Avon's gun was stolen. They're so busy thanking fate, they don't have time to wonder why there are clothes fit to size, or why Soolin doesn't wonder at all the new-comers. I mean for an intelligent, resourceful woman, how could she miss the large influx of people coming in and lack of them leaving?
