Curious footnote to the law of TV repeats, originally derived in my case with reference to Star Trek. Last night, I and a friend found ourselves watching an original episode in which Kirk et al end up facing Kitten Kong from the Goodies which neither of us could ever remember having seen before. In addition, it included a sighting of a guest star who seemed to be an answer to "what happened to ..." an ex-fellow-pupil from one of the schools I went to. She went into acting, had a good part in an Oscar nominated film, went to Hollywood and disappeared. Many years later, someone who looked like her, sounded like her and moved like her appeared in a detective series, but with a different name. This was the same lookalike, again with a different name. I'm sure I would have noticed her if I had seen the episode before! Odd.
