Yeah, what were you playing at, kidda?

Don't you start Kidda, She showed an interest and at the time I only had Series Two off the top of my head I thought "Oh I liked that one" (As I say, I hadn't seen it in years) and flicked it on. I realised about 5 minutes in that I had made a mistake. Too late then.

I have tried to show her The Way Back a few times but she won't have any of it. I think I am going to have to try to get her into The Prisoner instead. I am trying to convince her to give Sapphire and Steel a go after we finish watching The Wire but she won't have any of that either.

I can see your way of thinking... Gambit's an episode all about stealing. But women and SF is a hard mix, innit? I find that women aren't too keen on Pris either.

S & S though.. that's the kiddy.

The stealing aspect probably did swing it for me now you mention it. Never thought of it like that, my inner Scouse-ness must have compelled me to stick it on.

She doesn't mind New Who (Tolerates it) but she has seen/heard every episode of The Old Stuff and loves it.
I don't understand why she doesn't fancy S & S, reckon I am just going to have to force her to watch, she'll thank me for it in the long run. I agree, I don't think she will like The Prisoner but she is more interested in that than S & S so if she is willing I may as well give it a go.
To be honest I don't think she would have went for B7 even if I had started like I should have with The Way Back.

I know, what a f***ing idiot you've been, kidda.

Show her some S & S for her own good.

I'll make it her Valentine's day treat I am sure she will be thrilled.

It was a fun story. And neither Avon nor Vila are strangers to greed. Plus it gives them a chance to secretly rebel against Blake.

We never got to see if they had a chance to spend their ill-gotten gains. (I just hope that somebody doesn't read that last sentence and decide to write a fan-story where they spend their money together on Mutoid hookers.)
