Thanks FX.
I suppose I also need info from the UK geezers which TV channel Lexx appears/will appear on. I should check that my current satellite subscription covers the correct channel.

newbie Nick,you’ll be very lucky to see Lexx on terrestrial tv. If you do it’s usually channel 5. Actually until the recent winter olympics channel 5 was doing a re-run of series 2 on a Tuesday nights I think. Whether or not they will resume this at some point I don’t know.
If you are really stuck places like HMV are usually pretty up on the stock of lexx videos. MCV music and video stores usually have a good back catalogue too.
Failing that if you speak nicely to a “veteran” Lexxian [whose got the ability to copy tape to tape]they may make you a copy. I think you’ll find that most of us have got all the videos anyway [but not all of us have got tape to tape facilities, I still havent I’m afraid, but I’m working on it.It’s worth a try
ta ta xx
bye the way, where are you from Nick?

Thanks Tina
Lots of good help – just what I needed. I was thinking that if it’s shown on one of the Sky channels, I would need to know which one.. as I have a bare bones subscription for Sky.
I’m from Somerset, the Quantock Hills between Bridgwater & Taunton.

The UK SciFi channel shows Lexx, although it would not be in a basic sat/cable subscription. Sky One has been showing Series 1 late on Saturday nights (Sunday mornings) at half midnight, which came as a surprise for me since Lexx isn’t thery Skyish (which is probably the reason for the ridiculous times). Channel 5 was rerunning Series 2 with the possibility of showing Series 3 once the run had completed (there has ben conflicting news on this front) but suddenly stopped a few weeks ago. There is hope though, since they were the first to show Lexx in the UK (iirc) and created a Lexx section on their website fairly recently.

Sky were running series 1, which is only 4 episodes.. I’d imagine they have finished by now
There’s still the possibility that they will run Series 2.. I didn’t know they were showing Series 1 till after it’d already started.

Although there were only 4 episodes of series 1, they were all movie length and starred the mouth-watering Eva Haberman. 790 was also in top form slandering and cursing Tweedle at every spare moment. And Kai…he’s just dead as he should be.

SEE! Gerbils are evil! EEEEVVVIILLL!!! I tell you! evil!

Nurse: yes doctor, she won’t come near gerbils.
Doctor: I see. *walks away with a gerbil squeeking up at him as doctor hides a grin*——————
