That was the one banned in the UK. Some sort of N. Ireland like Rebellion.Mark wrote:Ok wait........what was High Ground about again?me,myself and I wrote:High Ground was before BoBW.

Re: Episode nits on the main site
No, I think it was about terrorism.
Thus why it was banned in the UK and Ireland. Picard made a comment stating that the IRA's terror campaign in Northern Ireland succesfully re-united the country. Given that this aired at the end of a 30 year long guerilla campaign of terrorist bombings by the IRA, this was naturaly considered to be crossing a line.

Nitpick - it was Data, not Picard.Rochey wrote:Picard made a comment stating that the IRA's terror campaign in Northern Ireland succesfully re-united the country.
Not quite - it was first broadcast in 1990, twenty-some years into the Troubles, and several years before the first IRA ceasefire.Given that this aired at the end of a 30 year long guerilla campaign of terrorist bombings by the IRA
This was equivalent to a film made in 1943 commenting on the Nazis winning the Second World War.

Re: Episode nits on the main site
Not a nit per se, but in your review of the Forge you mention that you remembered the answer to the 2 questions Spock was asked without looking them up. So did I. I didn't remember the specific person but I remembered "Nothing Unreal exists" is the first law of metaphysics.

Re: Episode nits on the main site
A little something I noticed about the Voyager episode "Hope and Fear" as listed on DITL.org. Correct me if I'm wrong, but... the factoid says: "The NX-01A registry of the Dauntless should, by Starfleet standards, mean that there was an NX-01 USS Dauntless - perhaps the first Starfleet ship ever built. If that ship went into full service its number would change to NCC-01. However, we have now seen the NX-01 USS Enterprise in the show "Enterprise". This apparent contradiction isn't necessarily a problem, as Enterprise isn't a Starfleet ship and Earth may number its vessels differently."
Now, if I remember correctly, the Enterprise NX-01 was indeed a Starfleet vessel, as its crew wore the Starfleet insignia and even responded to the name "Starfleet". Did the author of that little piece of information perhaps mean to write "...as Enterprise isn't a Federation starship and Earth may number its vessels differently"?
Again, sorry if I'm incorrect, but I'm fairly certain that Captain Archer's Enterprise was Starfleet hardware, and that Starfleet was around for at least a decade before the formation of the United Federation of Planets.

Re: Episode nits on the main site
I think perhaps the distinction that is being lost here is between Earth Starfleet (a/o UESPA) of ENT and UFP's Starfleet of TOS +.

Re: Episode nits on the main site
I'm not sure if this is where to post this, but it appears that the Future's End II user review page has been spammed. Also, I noticed a missing YATI. During this episode, Rain says that the Doctor should have bruises because Dunbar hit him, "a bunch of times." However, she had left eh car and was running away while the Doctor was being punched.

Yes, here is fine. If you find more please let me know. I've deleted the junk.

Re: Episode nits on the main site
A very minor nitpick I noticed today:
In the episode description for TNG ep "Darmok", under YATI (What does that stand for anyway?), it reads: "At one point we see the Epterprise fire a phaser out of it's photon torpedo launcher."
Enterprise is misspelled as 'Epterprise'.
As for the phaser in the torpedo tube - maybe they had some hapless, luckless ensign standing in there with a phaser rifle firing down... (I'm kidding)

YATI is an acronym for "Yet Another 'Trek Inconsistency."
