Lindy better get back soon or Kimberley will have her job and who couldn't use leather pants, boots and a bit more eye liner
This weeks trivia question, never in a million years (well a month while I rewatched every episode) would I have got that answer right!
Good listening on the Aeryn character piece by Mark, as you say we have to start from the genesis of the character and follow their development through the seasons.

I can recommend The Descent, good movie for watching in the dark with a 5.1 surround sound system and Natalie Mendoza has also recently appeared in the BBC production Hotel Babylon.

On the weekend, I caught the Descent (Gotta support those Farscape actors, right? )

Not bad at all.  I will confess to say that they "got me" at one point in the film (no shame, no shame).  And they threw me with the ending too.  And hey, any horror film where the ending isn't completely obvious within the first 10 seconds of the film has to be good, right?

[Jarrak]

I have to admit I only watched the movie because I loved the directors (Neil Marshall) previous movie Dog Soldiers which goes about shocking you with in your face werewolves and blood/gore, he took a more subtle approach with The Descent

Just a word about the whole Hitchhiker's Guide/Farscape segment. Very interesting. It's not something that would have occurred to me to compare the two beyond the fact that John and Arthur are both regular guys who find themselves flung to the far end of the universe. It's always great to hear other folks' take on things. Expands the consciousness. Kind of. Sort of. Anyway, I liked it.
