    India has a space and nuclear program. We don't even have that!! :D
    Hey now, we contribute the bare minimum to the ESA so we can get our flag on all the livery and street defecating is, thankfully, not that common here.

    Why did it never register, with me, that Chief O'Brien played the Cello?

    Was that "In Theory"?

    I remember noticing it anyway

    You misclassified Seven of Nine in her normal uniform in that section.

    I had people try slag me saying it looked like some pre millennium old site.


    Thing is, its a blogger, that I altered to make it appear that way by choice.

    IIRC O'Brien also sang "Jerusalem" - admittedly while drunk with maybe-Englander Bashir - which from this weekending anglophobe's point of view, felt a little wrong to be coming from the mouth from Ireland's greatest fictional character. :D

    He, well Colm Meaney, did veto the appearance of a leprechaun in 'If Wishes Were Horses', that's why we got Rumpelstiltskin.

    Imagine how bad it would have been if O'Brien wasn't over the X hundred years.


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 3,404 ✭✭✭Justin Credible Darts

    I don't believe for a second mild or severe cultural biases wouldn't still exist on Federation Earth. It's just not something folk go to war over, being the difference. The Irish would still mock the English; the English mocking the French; and so on.

    Relations with the UK probably improved after our reunification. :D
    Did RTÉ show all the Treks?
    I only remember them being on Sky and BBC.

    This too shall pass.

    Is the UK part of the Federation? :pac:

    For all we know reunification came about by the Republic joining the UK.


  • Moderators, Category Moderators, Entertainment Moderators Posts: 36,711 CMod ✭✭✭✭pixelburp


    Honestly, I presume by the time of the Federation, the UK still hasn't worked out what kind of Brexit it wants. Oooh, topical ;)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,927 ✭✭✭✭flazio


    I just remember Data saying we got the North back.

    This too shall pass.

    My recollection is that it was the BBC and that they actually pulled the entire episode, I may be wrong

    So I was watching a YouTube video about what might have been on season 5 of Enterprise and then thought CBS should do it in cartoon form we could get 3 more seasons if Enterprise and get whatever original cast want to come back to voice there character if not get someone else or change the character for another one. It would not cost that much and we would get the Romulan war and all the other things they had planned including Shran as a member of the Enterprise and the refit too. Surely it's the perfect answer to it.

    Live long and Prosper

    Peace and long life.

    I'd watch that. Especially if they go into the Romulan War. Also..always liked the look of the NX Refit

    Me too to watching it and liking the look of the refit NX-01.
    Just have to get CVS/Paramount to notice now and get it out there to get done. So if anyonexwants to start a pole online for it a post it here that would be great. Maybe if we got a petition to send to them even with enough names on it

    Live long and Prosper

    Peace and long life.

    Sorry to spoil the fun but Enterprise is seen as toxic and will never be touched again. Which is unfair really because looking back it's way better than Voyager which is crap bar a few episodes
