I took Pike shooting the two grounders when the plan was non-lethal force as an indication that the show isn't going to allow him a pass on his previous zealotry. I'm hoping the reckoning is still to come for him once the ALIE threat is past. Whether it will be Indra and Octavia going for savage revenge, or Clarke and…

The show definitely came about because of the network wanting to capitalise on Twilight, so everyone gets to be right here!

It seems so logical that when you have eternal life and a low-to-none interest in convention, monogamy should be pretty unimportant, but of course they were never going to go there.

Someone has to die of natural causes occasionally, right? Can still be all 'medieval' - apoplexy, the dropsy, biliousness, bloody flux…

I'm pretty sure Australian McDonalds had a competition along these lines, except you had to recite the Big Mac ingredients.

In Australia they use cardboard and have for years.

I remember a similar Mars Bar competition that a friend and I were determined to win. We were too young and innocent to understand that it was rigged, and couldn't understand why we could never get that elusive missing word, while our parents rolled their eyes at us.

It had to be a shout-out, right? The showrunners would definitely be watching/aware of Deutschland 83.

I'm kind of amused by the idea that he never works it out - the last scene of the series will be him walking away saying 'Nup, don't want to know, getting on with my real job now'.

Dichen Lachman was on the Australian soap Neighbours, where she was far and away one of the worst actors in its history (on a show not exactly known for its great performances). It took a while to get over the idea that she was innately bad.

I hadn't caught the girl's name, but Justine was a novel by de Sade. Justine is a young girl subjected to a series of sadistic sexual situations, until at last she is rescued by a woman who has also escaped a similar situation, and who turns out to be Justine's sister.

Cruz knew about the security (we saw her scoping the place last week) so maybe she decided an all-out attack was better than a stealthy but slower one.

If I were contemplating a bungee jump, the last word I want to see is 'snap', and yet their jump has it three times in the name. Seems a little inauspicious…

"Girl, what you were dealt… is two parents who would kill or die for you. That's a hell of a lot more than most people got."

They finally found a way to make Enzo mesh with another character believably, after three seasons trying! Michael Malarkey must have some pictures of Julie Plec somewhere…

I was thinking about timing after this episode. We're up to ep 8 of this season, and I think they've said are planning on 5 seasons total; if so, then soon, maybe not this season, but early next at the latest, the Jennings have got to be exposed, surely?

Isn't it the perceived wisdom that that marriage was purely business arrangement?

Teenage me was thrilled that they snuck into The Outsiders.

I think Mail Robot was there - during Stan and Gaad's conversation by the lift, there was a whirring and beeping in the background. Such a tease!

I've just been rewatching S2 of Orphan Black, and so I noticed that one of the scientists on 12 Monkeys, Dr Adler, was also Ethan Duncan on OB. Very distinctive voice.
