Went and watched him again (the things we do ...)
What I think it interesting is Her Supremeness's reactions, which are totally unlike I recall seeing anywhere else. First, the scene where she's reclining on the bed, and he's swinging it gently, with that bird-bright expression as they're cheerfully discussing who's going to get killed (one of the things I like about the Gnome is that mixture of befuddlement and cheerful ruthlessness) - then later, when they're waiting on events, they both kick of their shoes and relax, perfectly at ease with each other. And he calls her Commander several times (forgetting the Supreme) and gets away with it :-) They're slmost ... cozy together, which is so totally unlike Servalan that one has to suppose she's actually fond of him (even if she does show a desire to brain the dear little man at times :-))
Does it all mean anything? Probably not. But it's one of the few times I actually find Servalan quite watchable.
