The Other Side of the Glass 1 2 3

This is my favorite episode because it has Wooton and Bernard!!

I would like to hear your ideas. I know some people who don't like Wooton so I'd like to know what you think of this episode.

It's actually one of the strangest episodes in all of AIO's canon, at least for me. I remember LOVING it when I was about 7 and just getting into Odyssey (Moment of Truth was the newest album back then, so that's the one I bought). However, with some time to reflect, I consider it a quirky little thing that was basically trying to reproduce the grandeur of Novacom on a much, much smaller scale. While I would say that it mostly failed, at least in that regard, Wooton and Bernard's chemistry is extremely impressive throughout the episode, and it makes me wish there were more episodes with those two in them. The first part was extremely creative and well done, (particularly the extremely intriguing first couple scenes) but I guess I just expected more from the next two. Mr. Corelli was a pretty boring villain, and the whole thing felt ridiculously condensed, particularly in the last part. I don't hate it, partially out of nostalgia, but it's pretty disappointing, especially since I read in The Official Guide that it was supposed to be some kind of "return to form" for Paul McCusker. It would take him 4 years to really get the "return to form" thing right.

The last portion is the worst.
