What a powerful throw!

Out of the taxi directly upon the tree!

Olympic! And now let's X-ray some geese!

Davina · January 16, 2013 7:42 pm

This new episode is great. Are there little nods to Sherlock Holmes hidden in there? The bees? The ring in the goose? Martin is, indeed the Master!

The notes on Timbuktu are great. I wonder why he decided to change it from Portugal to Sardinia? Maybe the Italian accents are easier- although they were pretty dodgey.

Pineapple juice anyone?

SusiGo · January 16, 2013 7:46 pm

Yes, the bees reminded me of Sherlock, too. And I thought of Benedict as Christopher Tietjens wearing the signet ring that belongs to him personally. Don't know if he got it from his Dad, though, who's still alive.

"It was in my socks. I didn't think it would look there!"

What a nosey little metal detector. Suppose the name's Sherlock.

Oh, what a prophetic pic! But it looks much nicer and handier than Finn MacCool.

SusiGo · January 16, 2013 9:10 pm

Incredibly fast and incredibly well done.

They are all so good in doodling and drawing.

SusiGo · January 16, 2013 9:17 pm

So many talented people in these fandoms.

I wonder what Andrew would make of the Irish accents?

besleybean · January 17, 2013 7:11 am

As they were supposed to be comic, I'd hope he'd laugh!
Yay and thank goodness somebody else made the sheep connection. I did and wondered if John had been inspired by the famous pix!

Martin's/Benedict's attempt at the Irish accent was hysterical wasn't it. It sort of mutated into West Country.

Of course, the sheep shrank after all that rain......

Oh god this episode... Shame you can't hug radio waves (or radios... doing either makes you look a bit subnormal.)

The part with the bees, Martin's terrified whispering. Everyone got a whole range of really good lines and equal airtime. If I had any criticism it would be this: it all ended rather too soon! It posed more questions than answers: Trust me... you didn't have to sit next someone asking questions about Martin's ring. (To which I nearly asked 'Which Martin are you talking about?' but I think a LoTR reference would have been totally lost on them.)

The character development in this episode was just... wonderfully handled. Can't wait for next week!

I'm just really afraid JF is preparing to let Martin go. I didn't much like the sound of Carolyn being unpleasantly surprised by Martin loyalty. I'm going to listen the episode again now.

Mnemosyne · January 17, 2013 2:56 pm

I know how you feel...Is *this* related to the the 'cliffhanger' that everyone keeps mentioning, do you think?

tiharoa · January 17, 2013 4:04 pm

Yes probably and most of all to what JF said in this interview. I'm going to be gutted if they change any of the crew, not just Martin.
