As promised a late last minute Christmas present for you all The Derelict is boarded once again as former host Peter returns to give us his in depth thoughts on Star Wars the Last Jedi.   Will he side with Andy, will he be seduced by Lee (fnar!) is there a middle ground to be found? (or knowing Peter will he simply turn up and crash for no apparent reason)  

After the view from the Light Side in the previous Last Jedi episode Andy conjures up a view from the Dark Side by calling upon the force wraith of Lee Medcalf. And in atypical fashion chaos ensues with the only thing they can agree on being that Revenge of the Sith is actually quite under rated...

(no)  Is it worse than Attack of the Clones? (no) What is the airspeed velocity...
