Me: <Absolutely. The greater harshness of his voice and manners in the later episodes is rather too striking to miss.>
Dana: <Just you try having a job where you get more concussions than tea breaks.>
and Nico: <Yes! So someone else noticed! At least I assume you were talking about Vila? (I've just joined). Because Vila *is* the one who got regularly clobbered.>
Errr... well, Avon, me-actually-thinks , what with the number of times he gets hit on the head once he becomes Fearless Leader (*3* times in Power alone, that would explain *anyone's* temper). Can't say I recall how many times Vila got hit on the head (this is the eyelash thing, I'm afraid. Shallow and superficial, but irresistable).
Anyone done an actual head-count?
Vila changes too - he's definitely sourer and finds it harder to maintain even *some* joi de vivre in late S3/S4 - but it has more to do with the general nastiness that tends to focus more on him.
