For what it is worth,

my vigilance continues for news or updates about
BBC One's version of "War of the Worlds."

And in other places -- like YouTube video comment areas --
others are posting online about their impatience
to see the latest version,
and disclosing what they want included from the original book.

"The Thunderchild! They better have the Thunderchild!"

"Why are the soldiers in khaki? Shouldn't they have red coats?"
