S02 E06 Doomsday Machine The Enterprise encounters a vast mechanical monster in space, which is set on a path of destruction so that whole worlds are threatened. https://www.dailymotion.com/video/x8l...eo/x8lm0rh (Is this mechanical thing inhabited by blue people and their menials, perchance? Does it like jokes?) "You're not sulking, I hope?"

Sounds horrendous. Nothing worse than itching. Hope the episode can take your mind off it for a while.

Just put some eye drops in. Well, I hope some of it actually got into my eyes, I have a terrible blink reflex...

Hello. Meeting cancelled, so I'm here. Almost got the job, but alas just beaten by a candidate with better German, so back to square one. Sorry to hear you're feeling under the weather, OneSparePart. |

Poo. Sorry about the job, Anne. You wouldn't have liked Aber anyway. Probably. OK, not sure whether CB has started his leave of absence already but shall we start? "You're not sulking, I hope?"

Aber seemed lovely (mind you I was seeing it under optimal conditions, in bright sunlight) but it is very remote. The three trains necessary to get there almost made me lose the will to live. Especially when the second was stopped in Crewe for 2 hours due to signal failure. |

And the redshirts are a blueshirt and a yellowshirt. That makes a change. Hope they survive! |

At least with Trek you get a sense of the distances they travel in

What did I miss? I had to go and see what the dog was barking about (answer: nothing, as usual).

I remember it now! But it looks more like a hollow log than a cornetto. |
