Captain Scarlet....By The Letters! (Word Association)

Assuming no 'Q':

Rat Trap

- NCS episode - series 1

by **MMK** » Sun Nov 23, 2008 10:42 pm

This is only an attempt at Q, but...

Quitter - Destiny (nearly) quits being an Angel in Instrument of Destruction: Part 2

any good?

Ok, so S...

Space Agency - the place where Commander Lewis was originally going to be taken to (The Homecoming)

I like your 'Q'

Just a minor query though :oops:

- apologies - would 'Space Agency' be the same as the one posted under 'I' in this round - 'International Space Agency' - (they're both in New Mexico - NCS)?

I would say it's just barely acceptable, as it's referred to in The Homecoming as "the Space Agency", not the "International Space Agency".

However, can we try to avoid such close matches? We've already discussed the acceptability of reversing the order of words in episode titles (i.e. Falling, Mercury) as opposed to characters' and actors' names - I think that simply omitting a word from a placename falls close to the same rejection criteria.

Thank you for the clarification, Hazel - I hope I didn't step on anyone's toes :oops:

For a 'T' :

Transporter 43

- the truck which carries the core reactor in Expo 2068

How about this for U:

Underdog - Captain Black/The Mysterons

?

by **Marion** » Fri Nov 28, 2008 1:10 pm

Actually, I'd say if any one was the 'underdog' in the War of Nerves, it would be the humans - after all the Mysterons have powers we cannot hope to understand... :wink:

by **MMK** » Fri Nov 28, 2008 1:14 pm

lol! That's true :wink:

But the word is ok, then?

by **RhapsodyAngel8** » Fri Nov 28, 2008 3:58 pm

If 'underdog' is fine ('U' is getting really difficult!) may I go with my 'V'...

Vampire jet

- these always seem to end up getting mysteronised in NCS

by **MMK** » Fri Nov 28, 2008 10:25 pm

That was the 'V' I had in mind

Never mind... :wink:

World Science Congress
- where the Mysterons planned to wipe out all Earth's scientific elites in a single strike ('The Achilles Messenger')

by **RhapsodyAngel8** » Fri Nov 28, 2008 11:02 pm

Oops, sorry about that - good 'W' though

Hmmm... 'X' - how about:

'XB'

- the name of the plan, activated by White and codenamed 'Europa', to protect the three joint presidents ('Codename Europa')

"...You attacked our complex on Mars and you will pay a heavy price..." Part of the threat issued in Big Ben Strikes Again.

Zuca

- Scarlet's Egyptian informant who turns out to be a Mysteron replicant (NCS - 'Duel')

I never thought of him! :oops:

... well, parts of episodes have run through my mind (including the bit with him in!) but I just never thought about using him as a 'Z' :roll:

Good one Rhaps :wink:

Round 17.... wow! :shock:

Astrid Winters - mysteronised by the Mysterons against the War of Nerves ('The Achilles Messenger')
