Not that I'm obsessed or anything...!
This image is in the extensive booklet accompanying their second L.P.
Looks gorram familiar to me...
Jayne: 'You see, Vera? You dress yourself up, then you get taken out somewhere fun.'
Or..."Let's go out there and twat it!"
[Red Dwarf]
| You paid good money for this? On purpose? | THE HERO OF CANTON, THE MAN THEY CALL JAYNE | Deeply move yourself to blow out them candles |
| Smell a lot of 'if' coming off this plan | Jayne ain't a girl's
name! I got man parts!
Oh, I think we need visual proof of this [BEG] |
Home to the rich and paranoid |
| One of you's gonna fall and die and I'm not gonna clear it up! | No power in the 'verse is gonna stop me | I'll be in my bunk |
| Can I start gettin' sexed up already? | Where I unwed, I'd take you in a manly fashion | Been following in the footsteps of a carpenter for some time |
| Not that I get flush from corpses... | What do I do? Shadow Puppets? | Magical wish-granting wooden planks |
| My days of underestimating you are definitely coming to a middle | She was naked and articulate | You guys had a riot on account of me? |
| You were busy trying to get yourself lit on fire | I swear by my pretty floral bonnet I will end you | I married me a powerful ugly woman |
| Arm Jayne with a stick and stand well back. | Captain, can I have some money for a slinky dress? | Turns out this is my kind of party |
| So, we gonna play
cards or screw around?
Ohh, Jayne... |
Management holds no responsibility for ball failure | I could get nekkid... |
| We've done the impossible, and that's what makes us mighty. |  |
You don't pay me to talk pretty. |
| Time for some thrilling heroics. | Space monkeys... | I was aiming for his head. |
| So child, how long has it been since your last 'confession'? | Little girl, that's just plain dirty! | My sister's a ship, we had a complicated childhood |
| What you all order a dead guy for? | It's a cow in a jar | Don't strain your brain tryin', you might break something |
| We promise not to stop for beers with the fellas! | Jayne, grab your
weapon
[snerk!] |
It is perhaps somewhat fuzzier on the subject of kneecaps |
| Sit down and hang
onto something
[snerk!] |
When you can't run, you crawl and when you can't do that, find someone to carry you | Not altogether wise,
sneakin' up on a guy when he's handlin' his weapon
[snerk!] |
| Just want to take a bite out of him all over | Black market beagles | Today I was pompous and my sister was crazy |
| How drunk was I last night? | Pretty girl gave me a hat made out of a tree | Some people juggle geese |
| Jayne Cobb's come back | We gotta go to the crappy town where I'm a hero | I got me important hero type stuff to do |
| I prefer something with a few miles on it. | How big a room? | I told you, that's incense |
Nathan is basically like Wash in character, but Canadian and mercifully without the taste in LOUD Hawaiian shirts!! He's tall - around 6ft 2 at least (so Adam Baldwin must be HUGE!!). Dry, slightly sarcastic sense of humour, good at deadpanning and kidding people. Very mobile, expressive face in RL.
Alan is quirky and funny. Very freckly arms. Runs his hand(s) through his hair quite a bit, so the bird's nest seen on screen is true to life! Probably just about 6ft tall.
Morena is probably about 5ft 8ins. Slender, jaw-droppingly beautiful, great big grin.
Jewel is around the same height, also slender and very married. Mr Jewel looks very nice (well duh). She does not know the first thing about engines or practical stuff ! Low speaking voice, sparky, funny. Also Canadian. We were subjected to several episodes of 'Space Cases' which is a kids show she made 10 years ago. Bill Mumy (Bab 5) and Peter David (good author) put it together with Harlan Ellison (wow). Camp as tits, tries to be serious when really it would have been better played deliberately for laughs. 5 or 6 year olds might well find it entertaining; any older and you'll either fall about laughing (as I did a couple of times) or making really sarcy comments (ditto). But Jewel does look cute and screams brilliantly!

Summer is both completely unlike and yet strangely also like River. She says she got most of the character from having been a lone, geeky teen and living with a strong interior world in which she used to pretend that people were watching her. She took ballet for a long time and her performance in 'Serenity' will apparently blow people away; Sean's tipping her to be the next 'big thing' along with Nathan to get many more leading man parts.
If you recognise yourself and want a credit, let me know!
More piccies at some point!
Alan wrestles the mike into submission! |
Now if I add some gin to this bottle... |
Great cowboy boots! |
And it was about this big... Alan Tudyk musses his hair...again! |
Captain, Mrs Reynolds, River, Doc and Jayne |
Apologies for the murky shot - the hotel lighting was terrible At least you can try to make out Zoe, Kaylee, Wash and Inara... |
You can see why he won second prize! |
And why this won first prize If I was anywhere near that damn good, I'd apply to WETA Claire is a Big Damn Hero |
Same lady as before being Inara; different cozzie! |
Another contestant |
Cathy with her Kaylee 'wedding cake' dress |
I think Hugh might have shrunk a bit in the wash, but it's a darn good pair of cozzies |
Going the whole showgirl & cowboy route; Friday party. |

Ron is just...lovely. Beautiful warm voice, stunning smile - a real gentleman. He does not own a computer or a 'cell phone'. There's a scene with 'Badger' where the latter is peeling an apple as Ron passes by. This is an oblique reference to a performance Ron gave wayyyy back in the American version of 'Till Death do us part' in which the racist lead male said that Ron's character was threatening him with a knife; but all the time he was just peeling an apple.
Chris was very nice - good looking, friendly, informative. Don't know what else to say about him.
Mark Sheppard is actually British by birth and sported a London accent all weekend. The Artful Dodger made real! Very much a 'wide boy'
Costume competition:- Won hands down by Claire as 'Wash-o-Saurus' - which was her legs inside an incredibly lifelike TRex with her top half (and a pair of false legs) as Wash riding said dinosaur. That does not even begin to do it credit - it was awesome and Alan had some difficulty recovering from the sight of it - to say he was gobsmacked is an understatement!!
Second prize - very nice fella whose name I've forgotten as the statue version of Jayne from 'Jaynestown'. Slightly off-yellow head to toe and a matching sign reading 'Jayne Cobb'. Absolutely brilliant! The group prize was won by the crew (minus Shepherd Book) plus Mrs Reynolds. Their Zoe was just...jawdroppingly like Gina Torres. I went on as the Guardian from 'Buffy' complete with "scythe"; didn't get a prize but warm applause.
"The Mercenary"
Which Firefly character are you? brought to you by Quizilla
Keith R A DeCandido, Worldcon, Glasgow He's a fan AND he's writing the tie-in novel from the film! |
Mike Conroy has a dinosaur, it's green and four feet high, He's really
rather proud of it, it's the apple of his eye, But looking underneath its
arm he found to his dismay A nasty gaping hole from which the air had
leaked away...
(CHORUS) Oh, Mike Conroy's dinosaur has a hole under its arm. Now
some might think it adds a certain something to its charm, But a sudden
drop in pressure could do a person harm; Does no-one love a dinosaur with
a hole under its arm?
Perhaps it had an accident while wading through the swamp Or in the
rough-and-tumble of a prehistoric romp. Oh isn't it a tragedy that a
little thing like that Can make a firmly rounded friend so weary stale and
flat?
(CHORUS)
He's a victim of deflation, and he's feeling quite let down. One time he
took it swimming, he was almost like to drown. It's hard to know that
someone who ou thought would really care Turns out to be a hollow shell of
nothing but hot air?
(CHORUS)
The moral of my story you may view with some alarm: Don't place your
trust in no-one till you've checked under their arm, (Slower) And when you
shop for rubber goods they sell behind closed doors... (a tempo) Don't
ever buy their condoms till you've checked their dinosaurs!
