    i believe it should of ended with them being sucked into the dimention portal thing

    that would of made a better cliffhanger then the one we got, and it wouldnt of taken much to of cut it down to fit it in

    anyone else got any ideas?

    Why? Have you seen part 2 to form this opinion? Do they go straight into the portal?

    No. Lister talks for five minutes about the tomato he just took a bite out of, and a skutter giggles.

    I liked the cliffhanger. IF part 2 begins with them being sucked in- well, that will mean that the episode will have an action packed first scene, right? As a contrast to the subdued first scene of part 1?

    I’m hoping for a Hollister video diary.

    That goes for 5 minutes :D

    Part 2’s got an allocated running time of thirty five minutes. The extra five minutes is undoubtedly a recap, so what do we get?

    I think 5 minutes to recap that would be a bit of stretch. 2 minutes at the most should be sufficient.

    Would they take a full 5 mins for a recap? Probably 2 at the most. Which gives us an extra 3 mins which will, say, make up for the ad break.

    Well. I was exaggerating a bit.

    The cliffhanger didn’t bother me at all.

    I believe I let out an audible “GAH!” as I really wanted to see what happened next.

    So it had its desired effect.

    Yeah. I Gah!ed to. It didnt feel good that it ended abruptly or was finishing. So it was probably a good cliff hanger. I was expecting them to get to earth as the cliff hanger.

    The only thing wrong with the Cliffhanger was the fact it came so soon. Ending in that way, though, whilst abrupt, worked fine. And it’s not as if we need to wait long for the resolution.

    The ‘previously on…’ shouldn’t be any more than a minute and a half tops, really. I mean there really isn’t that much to recap.

    Portal.
    Go.

    I do hope in a way that they address the Series 8 cliffhanger.

    It could just be in a line of throwaway dialogue…

    Rimmer: I’m not hopping through that portal like some kind of demented trans-dimensional kangaroo.

    Lister: Come on, Rimmer. You’ve done it before. Remember when the ship was disolving and you went into the mirror universe to sort it out? That went pretty well.

    Rimmer: Went well? I ended up choking to death in a blazing inferno.

    Cat: Yeah, like he said – an afternoon well spent.

    I would want something similar. Although actually I would prefer some clarification as to which Rimmer this is, or even a mention of I-VII Rimmer (which I highly doubt will happen).

    I think they will, but in the meta-universe, where they’ll address the series IX issue, too.

    Of the two million people turning in, that would make seven of them very happy.

    Okay then – ‘Previously…’: Pre-credits?
