I wondered why the control tower was blown up - it wasn’t as though they could stop the Vampire. I thought Victoria looked quite strange (certainly nothing like her parents). I didn’t find her calling the Colonel ‘Daddy’ quite as awful as I expected - it seemed like a cultural thing. (I might have thought differently if they were talking in broad Aussie accents.)
This time around Spectrum are not exactly high on protecting identities. Aside from the Rhino under the house, Colonel White was back home
in uniform. I think Scarlet also underestimates the Colonel's importance to Spectrum. It's not going to fall apart due to some percieved scandal concerning him. Senior military positions are generally filled by a person for only a couple of years then they are posted on, retire or whatever and someone else gets the job. Colonel White would have to retire some day (or take one of those politically appointed cushy posts in the World Government perhaps).
I sure wouldn’t like Dr Gold as my GP - he seems far to fond of sticking needles into people, without much warning. As usual Black saves the day…I mean the episode. He gets my vote as the best character in the new series. Loved the hologram scenes.
