Firefly? I've never even heard of that! What is it: some American
series which didn't travel?

Firefly was an *excellent* series that was on about two years ago in
America, and is now available on DVD. It was poorly handled by the
FOX network, got poor ratings, and cancelled very quickly. However,
they are now filming a movie version which will be released next year.
The entire cast of the series were at the San Diego Comic Con this
past weekend -- I understand they had 4000 people at that session!!!
Unfortunately, we didn't have time to catch that session, but we did
get a chance to see them all signing autographs afterwards (right
before we took Antonia back to the train station for her departure)

Also, just for the record, it was from Joss Whedon, of "Buffy" and
"Angel" fame.    

Thanks for the info. It is clearly after my time. If it is still being
warmly talked about on the Internet in 35 years' time I will clearly
have to accept its legendary status...
