I believe I am right in saying that the dear Colonel studied at King's College, Canterbury.

Leach, Archibald...

(deep breath) the real name of Cary Grant, on whom Francis Matthews based the voice of Original Scarlet, and who was also possibly the inspiration for the facial appearance of the puppet.

Under-control puppets - used for scenes in vehicles and close ups.

This is not to be confused with 'out of control puppets' as depicted in many fanfics! :wink:

Yes we have, in Round 16.

$\D/$ Can I remind everyone about the Word Game spreadsheet? It's a couple of rounds behind, but much better than hunting around the thread!

Yikes!

Sorry!

How about vacuum. There is a vacuum on the moon: no moon, hence why the officers in both series have to wear space gear.

I'm not sure what you are trying to say here - but if it is that a vacuum is the natural state for the lunar surface, I'm not sure it can be allowed, otherwise we'd have to allow Gravity, because the Earth has some, or Water because they all drink it...
at least, that's what I think I would say, if you mean what I think you mean...

I think I agere here. We've had rather a lot of ordinary words with no specific relevance to either series, with a Scarlet association shoehorned in regardless of whether it fits or not.

I'd suggest skipping V, unless someone has a Scarlet-specific suggestion, and going on to W.
