I noticed in the credits that the Doctor Who Confidential episodes are narrated by Tony Head. I never would have recognized the voice otherwise. He doesn't sound like Giles at all.
Sort of, vaguely. There was one with, I am certain, a man and woman dressed in just that style of old fashioned american clothing, whose hover car died, and they drifted down through the fog onto the ground level of the city, where they were promptly set upon by wreckers, banging and clashing outside the vehicle, as they tried desperately to get help from the Judges. And by the time Dredd got there, they had practically nothing left.
It was the clothing that really triggered my memory of a Dredd story. But it has been many many years.
One thing that bugged me a bit about this episode was the "eight minutes of air." A car that size, with three people in it, would take more like two hours before the CO2 level got too high. They had the same problem with the hospital on the moon in the first episode. It ran out of air much too quickly (unless the force field was leaking.)
I can justify it in this case cos it could well be included on the driving test - like stopping distances - its a thing you learn by rote without actually understanding it.
I dont know - haven't you every played the "how much air is there trapped in this building" game when you've been really really bored? Or it might have been a standard question at the staff room christmas party amongst the Anesthetists... But it does seem a little unlikley.
