Why does everybody but Vila get leather? That’s not fair. :-( LOL

"I don't think Blake can think and swim at the same time."

Possibly punning on 'sink or swim'?

He had some leather outfits but they were chamois leather. There's a couple of interviews where Michael Keating says everyone kept asking him to lie on their cars.

So-called Blue Lace agate. From Namibia.

No, punning on Gerald Ford's inability to walk and chew gum at the same time. Lyndon B. Johnson said of Ford.

Aha. I was thinking chalcedony, which i think is the same thing. Very pretty.

Also lovely. What's the black stone - obsidian?

Nice. I'm familiar with the remark but never made the connection.

It's good timing that we're watching this episode about a living planet right now. Horizon's timely tribute to Sir David Attenborough turning 100.

Did Zil lay all those eggs? They look rather large...

I still like the way they've got the teleport set to try and pick up Blake. Cally has to react very quickly, so Avon 'helpfully' stands directly in front of her, blocking her view of the teleport bay.

They do. But weather balloons only come in large sizes.

The new FX include a big spaceship orbiting around Space Command, similar to a pursuit ship but larger and different. Presumably it's meant to be Samor's flag ship.

I like that Travis gets to yell at everyone. And they take it and deal with it with forbearance. Not like magistrates here.

In case Blake is mincemeat.

They probably expand on contact with the atmosphere. Or something.

That's a very believable explanation. I like it. Avon the quiet gentleman.

Travis is looking very Brian Ferry who in turn looked very Laurence Harvey.

Can you be executed based on a military court marshall ‘after’ you’ve been dismissed from the service???

I suppose the sentence is passed while he is part of the service. Dismissing him is a symbolic repudiation.

Is this the start of the jokey endings?

I think we have to see what happens to Ben Roberts-Smith.

They know they have the power to have him shot at any minute.

Makes sense.
