WHAT LUCK that Blue should find a tiddly valve like that on the forest floor. Why didn't the driver take it with him?

Why is everyone so casual about damage to the NUCLEAR REACTOR?!?! At the start, the truck carrying it crashes but doesn't blow up (?) and later Destiny asks if she should start FIRING on the truck! HELLO? Nuclear reactor on board? Lots of big death on a large burning scale.
And I don't normally complain about stuff like this, but the path the SPV takes when it turns off and the skid marks as the human truck driver tries to stop going over the cliff are really noticeable.

The guy shot by the driver looks just like Will Riker. :)

When receiving instruction from Dr Summers (sp?), Scarlet says 'SIG'. Why doesn't Summers say 'What does SIG mean?' ?

I think Raynor's voice is Neil McCallum, but I'm not sure. (Just as you thought you were safe....)

Who's Raynor ?

The security chief chatting to Summers at the start.

These supposedly superior Mysterons can be very spiteful. Captain Black ordered the helicopter controller to lock down the one helicopter so that it could not be tampered with. Having spotted the SPV arriving, Black told the man, "Crash that helicopter!" The man protested that Black had ordered him to lock it down, and Black shot him. Poor guy had done exactly what Black told him to do. Spiteful--and a liar, since Black had implied earlier that obeying him would keep the man alive.

Rather interesting that Captain Scarlet could be in physical contact with the exploding doohickey, in an enclosed space, and yet his body survived intact.

(Ever notice that, no matter how violent the explosion or crash, the bodies are always intact for the Mysterons to scan? They don't even get burned very much.)
