You're quite welcome, and thanks for the welcome! :)

Based on what I've read, on your site and elsewhere, I get the feeling
that I will be having a field day with the "Man From Nowhere" episode
when I finally get around to providing my take on it...especially now
having just read that the same writer behind "All Work and No Pay"
scribed "...Nowhere". That certainly explains a lot of what I have
heard/read, but I shall wait and see anyway... *gets a little more
giddy about the very recent UK R&H(D) boxset coming to her mailbox soon*
