Delenn's wine carafe were all the rage with brits going to spain in the 70s. They all brought one back home


I like the idea of Delenn visiting Spain and bringing this back as a souvenir!

I'm glad the stories (and/or their effects) carry forward. In B7 you 're lucky to see the same characters three weeks running. But since I haven't watched the rest of B5, at least for a while, I'm not going to see the results!


Shall we run up to the end of this series (another week) and then rethink it?


TT's supposed to be back this month, and he was talking of Prisoner rewatches, wasn't he?

I think either we watch each episode or not at all. Jumping over some episodes would be confusing!

We can't just keep watching B5 forever! There's years of it. Don't get me wrong, I've enjoyed this introduction to it, but I think we should give something else a chance soon.

So we are agreed!

That light that almost wrecked the survey ship was some kid with a laser pointer, like at football matches, surely?

The development of Londo and of G'Kar is one of my favourite things about Babylon 5. Star Trek started something similar with Gul Dukat, then panicked, and tried to shove him back in the box marked 'villain', although by that stage he didn't really fit into that box any more.
 
AnneArthur
That's completely paranoid . . .
You've been in Psi Corps most of your life, Talia, surely you've noticed that they're paranoid before now?

Federation intelligence. Is that what they call an oxymoron?

How do they know that dude isn't hooked up to some kind of life support? They can't just pull him out!

Is that a rewatch suggestion?

M1795537OCVirn
Yep, you were right to say we needed both parts of this one. When do we start the second one?

I have always wondered that - it's incredibly reckless.

5 minutes to part 2?

I got a bit behind on that one. I don't know why????

Started - I think you might all be a bit ahead of me.

3rd Age, Third Calendar...probably the same thing.
