Review Click here for the Tertiary Console Room Review - May Contain Spoilers! Professor Bernice Summerfield: Walking To Babylon (#1.03) By Kate Orman - Adapted by Jacqueline Rayner From The Back Cover... Professor Bernice Summerfield: 26th century archaeology professor, and tutor at St Oscar's University on the planet Dellah. Prone to getting involved in adventures, scrapes and general derring-do armed only with her wits, cunning and a flask of brandy! Aged about 35ish, but frequently says she's younger. Odd that... Jason Kane: 20th century guy, kidnapped by aliens and taken to the future where he met and married Bernice. Then they got divorced. Spends most of his time these days in bars, getting involved with very dodgy deals, criminal low-lifes and other undesirables. Far more intelligent and resourceful than he gives himself credit for. The Time-Rings: Given to Benny and Jason as wedding rings, they are two extraordinary poewrful devices which, used together, can take them anywhere in time and space. Some people would go to any length to get hold of them... The People: Now established as the most powerful beings in the cosmos, the People are spoken of in hushed whispers simply because they are, well, the People. Just won a very protracted war with another, similarly powerful race. Not entirely to be trusted.

She withdrew from the Miss Paranoia 2593 contest because she thought the judges were against her.' Benny: 'What sort of a person calls on a girl before 3PM on a weekend, eh Wolsey?' Jason: 'He's one of the People.' Benny: 'Well, so am I. Power to the people! Up the revolution!' Jason: 'No, I mean he's one of the... People.' Benny: 'You can't bring a member of the most powerful race in the galaxy to my rooms and then get pedantic about grammar!' Lafayette: 'I do not - I cannot - believe that I have walked to ancient Babylon.' Benny: 'Goodness, religion was never this much fun back at home.' The Drone: 'I may not be sentient, but that doesn't mean I'm stupid.'
