    Howdy doodly do, folks! As we’ve now had 2 weeks of the Difficult Daily, I thought it might be prudent to move discussions of the day’s puzzle and our scores to a dedicated thread, so we’re not just bloating the comments of the “Reintroducing Smegle” post all the time. Let that be for more general feedback (or bug reports).

    And of course, if you get any share-worthy frames in Casual Continuous, feel free to post those here too!

    To start us off,

    Somewhat tricky, but once I’d got the right series I felt confident I could narrow it down enough not to fail.

    Also, what do you think: should this thread be spoiler-free, or not? I’m leaning towards not – because I generally prefer to do the Difficult Daily myself before hearing about others’ scores anyway, and it would be cool to speak openly without having to wait until the next day – but only if there’s consensus on it.

    Psirens.  The revealed square looked more greyey-black than blue to me, to start with.

    problem with VI is cockpit scenes and camera angles all look the same in ever episode

    I guessed correctly that it was a Series III telly person, but I went for Jim Reaper first. The green should have been the clue there.

    I got the right episode, but identified sky on the screen, and thought it might be the slide of the skiers.

    First thought was Lister’s VII bunk, but second guessed myself with BTE. Then despite recognising the scene, went with Duct Soup and Beyond a Joke first

    as always, flying blind through the Dave era breaks my streak as often as not, but there’s no surer way to help me start a new one than going back to those early years.
