I kind of wish that the Season 3 cliffhanger had kept them all together instead of in their separate realities.
The two episodes (Into/Out of) belonged together; they meshed so well. The music that they used for the air scenes was very exciting. Don't think I'd heard it before.
I was very touched by the shooting of Marguerite, the quiet little 'John' before she and her maps hit the floor. I would have changed the next part though. I'd have had Roxton ignore the gun and go to her, heedlessly. They could have had Marchbanks slug him and the scene could have continued much as it did. And I really wish she'd smacked that weasely captain over the head with the ink bottle before he shot her.
Veronica had some touching lines (and some serious running through the jungle). She was truly an avenging angel through out.
Marguerite gets such great lines. What I found with both her and Roxton was that they were so quiet-spoken and there was so much else going on you had to concentrate or watch again to catch it all.
I notice that no-one in this thread (I think) mentioned that two years from May 26, 1915, Churchill was going to present her with a medal.
Churchill was well-portrayed. I liked his "Time has a way of running out."
Did his "Tick.Tock" line remind anyone of the leader of the band of cut-throats in Resurrection?
A very powerful image when Veronica lit the signal fires, almost like a children's story "One is for safety. Two is for luck. Three is so they just can't miss." Then she's filmed on the horizon through the distortion from the fire.
Marguerite's hug for Challenger -such spontaneous caring; she has sure mellowed.
I also hadn't realized that they were going to put out there in the first episode the concept that there was one solution for all the mysteries and all the people they met. A bold step into a season to remember. As Marguerite says as they take up the dirigible "It's time to fly."
