Just a few months. Tessa died on Oct. 23, 1993 (per the HL calendars).
Counterfeit is the next spring; RR got cold waiting for the bad guys in pt.
1. (And we don't see summer in Paris until season 6; it isn't pretty.)

She was acting?
>>>and while we're at it, AP's Scottish
accent was very convincing I thought. I've talked to
some who say they didn't think CL's was quite as
good.)>>>
I like DM's Scottish accent, but then I'm easy there since I have no real
(non-TV/movies) frame of reference (as opposed to Southern US accents,
actor-style ones of which drive me batty). But even I can tell CL's
Scottish accent...isn't.

>Charlie doesn't die until season 4. He *leaves* in early season 3.
Which _sounds_ like a good thing. But, there's always a catch....

In season 6, "Justice" suddenly gave us the facts of DM's current public
persona, when a newspaper tycoon had him investigated & spouted the
particulars in dialogue--
--born 1962 in Glasgow;
--to parents Mary & John, who died in a car crash when he was a child;
--he was raised by his maiden Aunt Judith in America, & she died of a stroke
when he was 17.
The key would be making sure your money & possessions follow you through the
decades, moves & ID changes. Tougher & tougher.

Very. I had to laugh when someone said they wondered
who she slept with to get the part...then they found
out who she was. One of the terms I saw used was
'wooden'....at any rate, I don't even wanna get
started on it. The episode itself was pretty good, but
the acting wasn't in that particular case.
Meanwhile, I also heard it said there was an extension
on the Darkness flashback where Richie sits up after
he revives and Mac talks to him a bit about his new
Immie-hood. Was the reason that we didn't see it
because it was Eurominutes, or just TNN's butchering?
Or have I got the wrong ep? Because I know they
spotted the kid in 'Leader of the Pack' and it
could've been in that ep.
