This is very British humour. I wonder if it didn't get much of an airing in the USA - and hence only two seasons. I wonder if Brad and Paula have seen it.

Making the pilot female AND a kind of mutoid is one way of giving a girl a proper job, without tactually doing so. "You're not sulking, I hope?"

Between the Midlands and East Anglia - halfway between Coventry and Nowrich Don't bother. It's in the south, which means it's not very interesting. Hence they're trying to get rid of it.

Well, we northerners call them "ravine crappers". |

How about doing a Captain Helix fan series? All we need is a blurry rear projection of a lake, an old dustbin als robot, a total ham actor and weird costumes for the guest stars. Plus a lot of booze to come up with the dialogue... |
