Most of those 'Londoners' look like extras from the Blues Brothers. i think it's the hats.

You don't often get repeated lines in films nowadays either. No time, in between all the car chases and shootings.

Yep. Back to normal in the morning. Normal for London, that is.

You're just too used to B7 jokey endings. At least we're spared all the moralising 'epilogue', followed by hook-ups between the characters.

Do you want to watch a film of them picking up body parts and sweeping the streets?

That was enjoyable enough but I always get the feeling of an opportunity slightly missed when I watch Q&tP.

We basically want a pun-based gag from Q to round off the evening

They knew how to do that, after the Blitz.

I think I would like some sort of reassurance that they are taking the threat seriously, and will know what to do if they find another one.

But it's Blighty. They'll just muddle through.

Yes. Not as good as the second one, I think.

I won't be around next week, but if we are doing Q4 by episodes, I can always catch up in time for the week after.

Another one? They'll just ignore it and hope for a maverick rocket scientist to save the day

Agree. Q2 is the best one, for me.

Interesting twist to see Q almost getting taken over. Didn't like his hat much, though.

I've never seen Q4. Are there gags at the end of each episode?
