I can't wait for the episode where Marvin doesn't say "it's crap". I have a feeling it's one of these 2 but I could be wrong....

But I don't have a dressing gown. Talking of dressing gowns, it's interesting there's not a single of them mention in the first two books - in fact, there's a mention somewhere of Arthur simply being in normal clothes. Get to Life, The Universe And Everything (published one year after the TV Series) and suddenly there's references galore to Arthur being in his dressing gown. It's not just B7 that made its continuity as it went along... Douglas Adams did it too! PS Have you got a bath? Bring that instead. It'll come in handy once we get to Episodes 5 and 6

Sorry about your pain, TT. Don't worry, it won't spoil my viewing tonight. I think the (im)probability drive is one of the best inventions of Sf. "You're not sulking, I hope?"

That's a better quarry than B7's. Unless it's CGI'd.
