No doubt already mentioned at length, but I was watching some of the episodes recently and it struck me how much of the series was helped by a strong opening...
I agree! It did when I was a child and still does. It looks so detailed and real. I was and am also captivated with the ending credits. The planets whooshing...
Hi guys, Yes the opening credits are brilliant and the closing ones are pretty neat too. Both held me captivated as a child and they are still captivating. The...
I think the opening chords were to set up an atmosphere of "High Drama". This was definitely not a "Kiddie-show". The writing and story lines were well...
... Oh definitely. I was 7 years old when I first saw the series, and remember the opening episode scaring the you-know-what out of me (something no program...

In "Trial By Robot", when they say XL-1 is taking off, you stop it and its Xl-5. How many XL ships are there? I heard in the show of XL-1,5,18.28. What is...

Hi Keryn I would recommend ordering a set on Amazon.co.uk - they seem to be the cheapest at the moment. I'm sure they can deliver to Australia - you just wont...
I'm really peeved that I couldn't get an overseas flight for the screening. But, for those of you who do go, I'd like you to keep in mind this little song...
Hi Ed. This "region" business with dvds is a bit of a pest. I've got round it by having my desk top computer set to Region 1 and my laptop to Region 2. I've...

Recently I was re-watching "Whistle For Danger", and was struck by the way a scientific space mission was handled. During the initial discussion concerning...
It seems to me that XL5 is the Flagship of the World Space Patrol. That would earn it's photo a place of honor at HQ. Also, isn't Floran in Sector 25? If...
