Rae, I haven't seen it myself yet - and I've just realised that I've put it on my buffy/angel tape so I need to watch it before tonight!!! (how stupid can I get )

As soon as I watch it I'll give you a run down.

Okay quick run-down..hopefully I won't miss anything.

Basically Joshua & another Transgenic called Mole pick up teo X-series transgenics, one of whom is pregnant. However as they are making their way back to Terminal City Mole crashes the van they are travelling in, into the back of some guys truck making it undriveable. Mole, Joshua & the two X's start to flee the scene of the crash and Joshua phones Max who tells him to go to Jam Pony and get help from Alec. The group arrive at Jam Pony and meet Alec outside but Police officers have been chasing them and surround them outside Jam Pony. Mole & Joshua pretend to take Alec & Cee Cee hostage and retreat into the Jam Pony offices. Normal has a gun on Joshua & Mole to try and save his 'golden boy' Alec when Alec reveals he is a transgenic and disarms Normal. Normal is shocked to learn that alec is one of them as is Sketchy. Alec takes command and sets up a perimeter inside Jam Pony to keep an eye on the police and to hold the messengers as hostages. Meanwhile Max has arrived outside Jam Pony and sees all the commotion. Max rides one of the Police HoverDrones through a window into Jam Pony. There she takes charge however Normal trys to take all of the messengers out of the building but Sindy persuades them to stay so that the police won't storm the building and kill Max & co which they agree to. Max negotiates with the police to get a van to escape in and she'll realease half the hostages with the other half being released when they reach their destination. During all this White ahs arrived on the scene and tried to take over but been refused by the police officer in charge. The Caabal have sent a team of their best warriors into town to kill Max and ordered White to do whatever he has to do to aid them in their mission. When the van arrives half the hostages are released and Mole, Joshua, Max & Alec take the other hostages as human sheilds(Sketchy, Normal and a couple of others). Max has Sindy and Cee-Cee(who nobody outside the building knows is a transgenic) as hostages. She makes the police pull their snipers back but White has positioned snipers of his own. As the transgenics make their move to the van Logan, who had seen what was happening on TV and had strapped his super legs on and made his way to Jam Pony to join the mob outside, spots White's snipers. Logan jumps the police barricades and shouts a warning to Max. However before Logan & Mole can shoot at the snipers they shoot and hit Cee-Cee & Alec, killing Cee-Cee and catching alec in the shoulder. Everyone gets back into the building and white, blaming the police officers snipers for being trigger happy, takes charge of the operation. Inside Jam Pony tempers escalate and Mole wants to kill one hostage every hour to show the police they mean business starting with Sketchy. The pregnant girl goes into labour and Normal,who had some experience birthing cows, gets over his dislike of transgenics and helps the girl while she's delivering her baby. Logan & Max persuade Mole not to kill the hostages and everyone goes back to watching the police outside. Meanwhile the Caabal's warriors arrive on the scene dressed as riot cops and White sets up their entrance to the building telling them to kill everyone in the building and to blame the humans deaths on the transgenics to flame the hatred for transgenics that is being demonstrated by the mob. For some reason Max can sense them coming and gets everybody to go upstairs. She gets everyone to hide and Normal & Sindy try to help deliver the X5's baby. Max, Alec, Joshua, Mole & Logan lie in wait for the Caabal's warriors. The warriors arrive in the room and a battle ensues. While the battle is raging the X5 gives birth to her baby. Joshua is like a man possessed and when he gets hold of White he starts going to town on him. The others are slowly being beaten but eventually the tide turns and all the Caabal warriors are subdued. Max stops Joshua from killing White for White's killing of Annie. They strip the Caabal gaurds and Sketchy, Logan, Alec and Sindy come out of Jam Pony dressed in the uniforms with Mole, Joshua & Max as prisoners. They get into a police van and an ambulance and start to head for terminal city. While they are leaving the police officer leads his troops into Jam Pony where the last remaining messengers tell them they should have a look upstairs. Upstairs they find the tied up Caabal warriors and White. They figure out what happens and chase the Police Van & Ambulance into Terminal City. The two vehicles end up stuck in a dead-end and the police order everyone out and to get down on their knees with their hands on their heads. Everyone does except Max who tells the police officer he should take his men and leave. When the officer asks why hundreds of Transgenics appear from the shadow. The officer takes his troops and withdraws. Mole suggests that everyone should take off and hide but Max persuades them all to stay together. The show ends with a news report in which Normal is interviewed and tells his story about how he delivered a 'beautiful baby girl'(his fear/loathing of transgenics cured). The news report mentions that there is now a blockade of Terminal City and a tense stand-off has ensued. We cut to Max & Co and Joshua is raising a flag he designed to represent the Transgenic nation on the roof of a building in Terminal City... *The End*

I missed a couple of things out..just little things really...brilliant episode and I hope that they do make some made-for-tv movies to tie up the story.

wow it sounds great
wish i'd caught it hope they do do some tv movies

are there any plans for a terestrial channel to get DA?

I heard Channel 4 was going to get the rights for it - I hope they don't though because it will be so cut. Same with Alias( also going to channel 4 from what I've heard).
