The policies detailed on this page are summaries of the policies in the Reservations Agreement, the Commitment to Purchase Agreement, and the General Cruise Policies. These summaries are not definitive. For definitive terms and conditions related to the Fantastic Voyage, please refer to the listed documents.

Cruise Package.

The FANTASTIC VOYAGE® is selling a cruise package aboard the Fantastic Voyage® 2024 (the “CRUISE PACKAGE”) sailing aboard Royal Caribbean’s (the “CARRIER”) Independence of the Seas (the “VESSEL”), departing from the CARRIER’s cruise terminal in PortMiami, Miami, Florida, on Saturday, April 27, 2024 with ports of call at Puerto Plata, Dominican Republic; and San Juan, Puerto Rico; and returning to PortMiami on Saturday, May 4, 2024 (the “ITINERARY” or “CRUISE”). The CRUISE PACKAGE is all‑inclusive, consisting of: transfers to/from the airport to the cruise terminal, passage aboard the VESSEL for a tour of the Caribbean, all food aboard the ship (excluding specialty restaurants), entertainment as provided, gratuities, and port fees and taxes.

ITINERARY is subject to change, without prior notice, including but not limited to the departure and return dates and ports, ports of call, order of ports and berthing times, CARRIER, VESSEL, scheduled entertainment, hotels, excursion packages, Fantasy Packages, and amenities. If the CRUISE is cancelled (including if due to a change in ITINERARY), refunds, if any, will be issued in accordance with the policies in this RESERVATION AGREEMENT (no exceptions will be made).

DIRECT RESERVATIONS. CUSTOMERS are strongly encouraged to make their own reservations directly with the FANTASTIC VOYAGE’S® Call Center or the CRUISE’S® website and not through a third party. The Fantastic Voyage® will accept instructions only from a CUSTOMER on the reservation. FANTASTIC VOYAGE® has no authority, nor obligation, to enforce side agreements. Be aware that only the FANTASTIC VOYAGE® can manifest passengers to the VESSEL; therefore, all purchases of berths aboard must go thru the FANTASTIC VOYAGE®. The FANTATIC VOYAGE® will facilitate the transfer of berths between CUSTOMER and someone else; however, it will not honor any arrangement for which it was not involved.

The Deposits, Cancellations, and Refunds Policy (Summary).

The policies detailed in this summary are not definitive. For definitive terms and conditions related to this topic, please refer to Commitment to Purchase Agreement.

Non-refundable Deposit. Paying CUSTOMERS are required to make at least a nonrefundable deposit at the time of booking the CRUISE PACKAGE. Generally, the nonrefundable deposit will be five hundred dollars ($500) for each passenger; however, for suites and some specialty cabins the nonrefundable deposit per CUSTOMER may be higher.

Customer’s Ability to Sail. It is a CUSTOMER’S responsibility to know whether or not they can legally sail on the CRUISE. Should it later be determined that the CUSTOMER cannot legally sail, such package will be terminated as of the date the FANTASTIC VOYAGE’S® Call Center becomes aware of the prohibition and the terms of cancellation as defined in this section shall apply; there will NOT be a full refund of the package purchase price.

Refund Amount. If a CUSTOMER cancels a CRUISE PACKAGE, amounts paid in excess of the nonrefundable deposit are refundable at the following rates:

Amounts retained in excess of the REFUND AMOUNT shall be considered liquidated damages.

If the CRUISE is cancelled due to an act of nature, breakdown of VESSEL, hostilities, medical outbreak, blockades, labor conflicts, strikes aboard or ashore, restraint of rulers or princes, war, fire, collision, directions of underwriters, arrest, order or restraint by governmental authorities or others, acts of terrorism, civil commotions, passenger safety, weather conditions and considerations of safety of VESSEL (of which the CARRIER shall be the sole judge), foundering of VESSEL or breakdowns of or damage to its hull, machinery and fittings, inability to secure or failure of supplies, including fuel, requisition of the VESSEL or other circumstances beyond FANTASIC VOYAGE’S control (including but not limited to a change in CARRIER’S fleet deployment caused by any of the aforementioned events) (collectively, such causes shall be referred to as “FORCE MAJEURE EVENTS”), the sole liability of the FANTASTIC VOYAGE® to a paying CUSTOMER shall be for a pro rata refund of any monies theretofore paid by said paying CUSTOMER to the FOUNDATION for the CRUISE PACKAGE hereunder for all obligations not then performed or for which paid CUSTOMER has not had benefit.  CUSTOMER agrees that FANTASTIC VOYAGE® ENTITIES shall not be responsible for any incidental and consequential damages incurred by CUSTOMER.

The FANTASTIC VOYAGE® shall not be liable if, at any time and without prior notice, the CARRIER cancels, advances, postpones, or deviates from the ITINERARY.

Should the CRUISE be re-scheduled, no refunds will be made. Should the entire CRUISE be cancelled, refund will be at 85% of the cash-paid price in order to cover nonrefundable CRUISE related costs.

No refunds will be made to non-paying CUSTOMER.

Risk of Travel.

Travel, by its nature, while enjoyable, is inherently risky. Troubles can occur when you least anticipate them, forcing you to cancel or interrupt your trip, lose your vacation investment, and incur unplanned expenses such as loss of income, medical emergencies for you or someone dear to you before and during the trip.

TRAVEL INSURANCE. Fantastic Voyage strongly encourages you to consider purchasing travel insurance to cover these unexpected events. Travel insurance may be purchased from a national insurer such as Travel Guard (www.TravelGuard.com), an AIG company, or type “travel insurance” into an Internet search engine. Although some airlines offer travel insurance, please be aware that such insurance rarely covers more than just the airfare; you might still lose your investment in the CRUISE PACKAGE.  Seriously consider purchasing insurance from a travel insurance carrier, which usually covers the entire investment.

Every year we have customers that lose their investment because they “didn’t think it could happen to them” or thought there would be an exception for their circumstances. In fairness to our passengers that purchase travel insurance, the FANTASTIC VOYAGE® disclaims any liability for CUSTOMER’S unforeseen events, regardless of personal circumstances or circumstances beyond your control that prevent or delay your participation.

Selected Boarding Policies.

The requirements for the appropriate travel documents vary depending upon many factors unique to a CUSTOMER (including, but not limited to: the country that issued the CUSTOMER’S passport, the CUSTOMER’S country of residence, their status within the country of residence, and the requirements of the country they are entering). Therefore, it is each CUSTOMER’S responsibility to determine the appropriate travel documents and to have them at embarkation and throughout the CRUISE. Please refer to CARRIER’S requirements for travel documents at  www.RoyalCaribbean.com .

U.S. Customs and Border Protection (“CBP”) requires that travel documents (e.g., birth certificates, passports, etc.) be originals; photocopies, digital versions, nor other alternatives will be accepted for boarding. Furthermore, It is important that each CUSTOMER’S travel documents contain the CUSTOMER’S full legal name (the name must be the same on all documents). The travel documents must be on the CUSTOMER’S person and readily accessible when boarding the ship. If the travel documents are in a CUSTOMER’S luggage or have been accidentally left at home, the CUSTOMER will be denied boarding and no refund will be issued.  No CUSTOMER will be permitted to board the ship without valid travel documentation.

The CARRIER has relaxed COVID-19 vaccination requirements aboard the VESSEL such that currently no pre-board testing is required and that no proof of vaccination is required. However, CARRIER and the ports visited may change their requirements at any time based on the latest health guidance or regulations. CUSTOMER must be in compliance with the requirements in place at embarkation and no refund will be offered for not being in compliance.

Governing Laws and Venue.

Any disputes and matters whatsoever arising related to the CRUISE PACKAGE shall be decided by a court in Dallas County, Dallas, Texas. Disputes with the CRUISE LINE will be decided in line with the terms of the CARRIER’S ticket contract (including but not limited to the choice of law and venue provisions) shall apply.

*All itineraries, dates and times, vessel, ports, artists, performers, appearances, locations, etc. are subject to change without notice.

**Consult with your accountant or preparer regarding the tax-deductible donation.

Film / Fantastic Voyage

Edit locked.

A 1966 Science Fiction film, directed by Richard Fleischer and starring Stephen Boyd , Raquel Welch , Edmond O'Brien, and Donald Pleasence , about a shrinking machine used to send a mini submarine and its crew inside the body of a defecting scientist.

During the Cold War , both the United States and " The Other Side " have discovered the shrinking technology, which is limited in practicality because of how short-lived the effect is. But the scientist Jan Benes (Jean Del Val) had discovered how to overcome the limit, and enemy agents will stop at nothing to prevent the secret from escaping from behind the Iron Curtain. Benes, wounded in an attack, is comatose and dying from a externally inoperable bloodclot, so the U.S. miniaturization taskforce organizes an expedition to be shrunken to remove the clot from the inside, operating on it at the cellular level.

But for the same reason they need to save the scientist, they have a time limit to get out of the body (or they'll grow back to normal size while inside of it). Even further, an enemy agent is trying to stop them; the protagonist Charles Grant (Boyd), who smuggled the scientist from behind the Iron Curtain, has to make sure the mission succeeds while not knowing who he can trust on the crew.

The film also received a novelization by Isaac Asimov , as well as an Animated Adaptation . Very often homaged or parodied — see "Fantastic Voyage" Plot .

This film and its novelization provide examples of:

• And several years later he wrote a from-scratch "remake"-slash-"sequel", Fantastic Voyage 2: Destination Brain , that attempted to clean up even more of the science and plot problems.
• Asimov also wrote an essay discussing the science problems brought by the premise of the movie, as among others how to miniaturize the sub and its crew, to be able to see when wavelengths of visible light are larger than the eyes of the crew, and getting air from the lungs when molecules are not much smaller than the submarine.
• All for Nothing : In one version of the script, the team saves Benes, but Benes suffers from amnesia and does not remember how to achieve unlimited miniaturization .
• all lowercase letters : The opening and closing credits for the film.
• It isn't clear if the whirlpool was a freak accident or if Michaels knew about it somehow and navigated the Proteus there on purpose.
• Grant insists his snapping safety line in the lungs must have been tampered with. This serves to increase the suspicion around Duval. But it could have been an accident, especially since the forces were described as "incredible," and because it's not clear when (or why) Michaels might have tampered with it.
• Did Michaels deliberately navigate them through the lymph system, hoping that it might clog the engines? Or simply slow them down? Or did it have nothing to do with sabotage, and Michaels was earnestly concerned about the (justified) dangers of going through the ear?
• One sexist example: antibodies tend to flood an area and attach themselves at random to anything they can. They wouldn't distinguish Cora from Grant, and would attack them both. Apparently, they wanted a Damsel in Distress moment instead.
• Bald of Evil : Michaels
• Bigger on the Inside : Played With — The Proteus was built as a single set, with removable exterior panels to allow filming. However, some have argued that the remaining volume is insufficient for the air tanks, engines, etc.
• The Big Board : A vertical diagram of the scientist's body, where the location of the Proteus is marked.
• Big "NO!" : Carter gets a few of these when things look bad.
• Blob Monster : The White Cells
• The Brigadier : General Carter, the commander of a scientific research division, who sends them into the body to save Benes and his knowledge.
• Buried Alive : Michaels attributes his claustrophobia to having been trapped beneath rubble during the Blitz.
• The Chains of Commanding : Carter is determined to have them get through the body, and takes some great risks to do so, but is clearly torn up over it.
• The Coconut Effect : Deoxygenated blood is actually maroon , not blue. Blue is simply how systemic veins look from the outside when seen through human skin, and how deoxygenated blood vessels are illustrated to distinguish them from their oxygenated counterparts. But of course the film's lava lamp blobs - er, erythrocytes - turn from blue to red as they pick up oxygen in the lungs...
• Communications Officer : Grant's cover
• Cool Ship : The Proteus
• Defector from Commie Land : Benes, who holds the secret to unlimited miniaturization.
• Determinator : It's far more pronounced in the book, but Carter will do anything within reason he can to see the mission succeed, even induce cardiac arrest so they can travel through Benes' heart safely.
• Elaborate Underground Base : CMDF HQ
• Energy Weapon : The surgical laser, it has a constant beam and slices cleanly through what it's aimed at — but would a doctor really be using a rifle for brain surgery?
• Fanservice : Raquel Welch is in the movie, wearing a skintight Latex Space Suit . 'Nuff said.
• "Fantastic Voyage" Plot : The Trope Namer
• Future Spandex : Under the neat white jumpsuits. Justified, both for the Fanservice, and because they're neoprene diving suits.
• Giant's Droplet, Human's Shower : A variation. The crew inside Benes's body must make a quick exit before they grow back to their normal size, taking one of the tear ducts as their only possible route. The supervising scientists then discover them swimming in Benes's tears as if they are in a pool.
• Got Volunteered : Grant is not happy to be selected for the mission once he finds out what it entails, but he isn't given much choice.
• Government Agency of Fiction : C ombined M iniature D eterrent F orces (CMDF).
• Hammer and Sickle Removed for Your Protection : The Soviet Union and its allies are only referred to as "The Other Side".
• High-Tech Hexagons : The shrink ray room had hexagons all over the floor. The ship rose up on one of them once it got small enough, so that it could be shrunk one more time, and then readied for insertion into the guy's body.
• Hollywood Atheist : Michaels. Does it come as any surprise to the 1960s audience that the non-believer turns out to be the traitor?
• If I Wanted You Dead... : In the novelization, Grant eventually figures out the identity of the mole by realizing that the acts of sabotage that seem to implicate various crew members would have been far more effective if those crew members had in fact committed them using their specialized skills note  Owens could have sabotaged the ship in a way that could not be fixed, Cora could have sabotaged the laser in a way that would not be visible, but would either prevent its use or make it so inaccurate that Benes would be killed, Duval figures out a way to save Grant when he is lost in the lungs, and could have just let him die . The one exception is Michaels, the only one who could have mis-navigated them into a circulatory whirlpool that nearly destroyed the ship.
• Incredible Shrinking Man : The whole plot to the story involves a surgical team and their sub being shrunk to microbe size to laser away at the life-threatening clots Benes developed.
• Insufferable Genius : Duval, the surgeon. In the novel he's more of a Dr. Jerk with No Social Skills .
• Latex Space Suit : As Homer Simpson has been known to observe, the crew get to wear skintight diving suits when venturing out of the sub. This is actually quite justified, in that wetsuits are less complex than space suits and do indeed have to be quite figure-hugging — but any movie that gets Raquel Welch into a costume on those lines may be suspected of fanservice .
• Played straight, however, in the heart scene. "60 seconds" of cardiac arrest actually lasts for over 3 minutes of film, probably to draw out the dramatic tension and the special effects.
• Mega-Microbes : Inverted — Tiny Humans, normally sized Microbes...
• The Navigator : Dr. Michaels, who steers the vessel through the body, being the member of the group who is most aware of what goes where in anatomical terms.
• No Ending : The film ends with the Proteus destroyed, Michaels gobbled up by a white blood cell, and the rest of the crew escaping the scientist's brain through his tear duct, de-miniaturising on a microscope slide. There is no explanation for what actually happens afterwards. There was an extra scene at the end of the film that explained what happened next but for whatever reason it was cut out. See "Shaggy Dog" Story below.
• No Plans, No Prototype, No Backup : Benes apparently did not keep any notes of his process. Justified in that he probably destroyed any notes he took to keep The Other Side from getting hold of them before he defected.
• Nothing Is Scarier : Specifically, a lack of soundtrack is frequently used to build suspend. The first bit of "soundtrack" music comes after Acts I and II. There is no soundtrack at all in the ship's approach to the dangerous heart. The soundtrack is similarly absent while the crew are in the ear, to heighten the suspense around needing "complete silence."
• Race Against the Clock : After miniaturization, the team has 60 minutes to complete their mission before they start to de-miniaturize.
• The Radio Dies First : Technically, the laser dies first — the wireless is cannibalized to fix it.
• Scenery Porn : The body interior sets, built full scale.
• Seeker White Blood Cells : White blood cells are mentioned but not seen until the near end; antibodies make an earlier appearance.
• "Shaggy Dog" Story : In the original screenplay, Dr. Benes awakens from the operation having recovered, but is unfortunately unable to remember how to make the shrinking process work indefinitely due to the blood-clot , rendering the heroes' efforts all for naught (other than having saved his life). This was included in the Asimov novelisation and surviving production stills suggest this was how the film was supposed to end as well, but it was removed - perhaps to prevent audiences from feeling that the heroes' efforts - and therefore the audience's time - had been wasted.
• Shrink Ray : The non-portable variety, used chiefly as a research tool due to the time limit making military uses non-viable (it's also the variety that can expand as well as shrink note  The novel notes the potential of entomologists using the tech - "Ants blown up to the size of locomotives for easier study" ).
• The Smurfette Principle : Cora is the only female member of the team (and the only female speaking part in the movie). Colonel Reid complains that a woman has no place on such a dangerous mission.
• Square-Cube Law : Why Isaac Asimov was initially reluctant to write the novelisation — he thought that being miniaturised was impossible because of this. Nevertheless, he decided it would make for some good writing and came up with a novelisation that is almost as hard as science fiction can be, ignoring the physical impossibility of miniaturisation.
• Stating the Simple Solution : It takes a bit before Carter thinks to put cotton in Benes' ears to lessen the risk when they are traveling through the eardrum.
• In the novelization, the mole is played with more subtlety. Michaels avoids the blatant panic attacks of his movie incarnation, and serves as Grant's mentor about miniaturization; the two even discuss possible suspects throughout the story — including themselves. (Grant admits that Michaels' theory that The Other Side could have let Grant escape with Dr. Benes to build his reputation is reasonable, if nothing else.)
• To the Batpole! : The Elevator to CMDF HQ.
• The War Room : The CMDF Operating Theater
• What Happened to the Mouse? : A number of elements that should be problematic are ignored: the wreckage of the Proteus , and Dr. Michaels' body, after being eaten by the white blood cell — somehow that keeps them from re-enlarging once time runs out. This is one of the most memorable plot holes of the film, and Asimov made sure to close it in his novelization. Massively averted by the novelization, which accurately depicts, as well as we know (or, at least, as well as we knew in 1966), what it would be like if humans could in fact be miniaturized to this degree. Even Brownian Motion (random molecular motion of a fluid or gas) is noticed and commented on. Most of the flaws of the movie are explained or elaborated on so as to be acceptable to reality, making the book as much a corrective Retcon as a novelization.
• The World Is Just Awesome : Well not the world , but this describes Duval's feelings about their journey though the body.
• Zeerust : Varies — Being set 20 Minutes into the Future in 1960s, some elements, like the laser rifle don't hold up well, while the Proteus itself varies from a sleek futuristic but practical exterior, to an interior that could be considered Used Future . What dates the film most of all are the '60s contemporary elements, such as computers, cars and uniforms.

Brief Synopsis

Cast & crew, richard fleischer, stephen boyd, raquel welch, edmond o'brien, donald pleasence, arthur o'connell, photos & videos, technical specs.

In 1995 Czech scientist Jan Benes escapes from behind the Iron Curtain and is brought to the United States for interrogation. U. S. scientists are able to reduce objects, including people, to the size of bacteria, but the miniaturization can be sustained for only 60 minutes. The Czech scientist has learned the secret of prolonging the miniaturization; but before he reveals this knowledge, he sustains a severe brain injury which can be treated only from within his body. A plan is conceived whereby a crew of five will be placed in an atomic-powered submarine, miniaturized, injected into the scientist's bloodstream, and set on a course through the arteries to the brain. In addition to American secret agent Grant, the crew consists of Dr. Duval, the surgeon who will perform the operation; Cora Peterson, his assistant; Dr. Michaels, a circulatory expert; and Captain Owens, the sub's pilot. To save some of the 60 minutes, the group decides to stop the scientist's heart to allow the submarine to pass through the heart. Then Grant and the crew leave the sub, and by means of a snorkel tube attached to the patient's lungs, replenish their oxygen supply. As they near their destination, a nurse in the operating room drops a pair of surgical scissors, and the sound causes tremendous vibrations in the sub that hurl the crew from their positions. With only 6 minutes left, Dr. Michaels reveals himself to be an enemy agent intent on sabotaging the mission. The remaining crew members escape as white corpuscles envelop and digest both the submarine and Michaels. The operation is successfully performed by removing a blood clot with a laser beam, and the four survivors leave the scientist's body by swimming along the optic nerve and emerging through a tear duct.

Yet all the suns that light the corridors of the universe shine dim before the blazing of a single thought - - Dr. Duval

- proclaiming in incandescent glory the myriad mind of Man... - Grant

Very poetic, gentlemen. Let me know when we pass the soul. - Dr. Michaels

The soul? The finite mind cannot comprehend infinity - and the soul, which comes from God, is infinite. - Dr. Duval

Yes, well, our time isn't. - Dr. Michaels

The medieval philosophers were right. Man is the center of the universe. We stand in the middle of infinity between outer and inner space, and there's no limit to either. - Dr. Peter Duval

Isaac Asimov was approached to write the novel from the script. He perused the script, and declared the script to be full of plot holes. Receiving permission to write the book the way he wanted, delays in filming and the speed at which he wrote saw the book appear before the film. Asimov fixed several plot holes in the book version, but this had no effect on the film (see the Goofs entry).

The scenes of crewmembers swimming outside the sub were shot on dry soundstages with the actors suspended from wires. There was some additional hazard involved because, to avoid reflections from the metal, the wires were washed in acid to roughen them, which made them more likely to break. To create the impression of swimming in a resisting medium, the scenes were shot at 50% greater speed than normal, then played back at normal speed.

As a college student, director Fleischer was a pre-med student for a time.

When filming the scene where the other crew members remove attacking antibodies from Ms. Peterson for the first time, director Fleischer allowed the actors to grab what they pleased. Gentlemen all, they specifically avoided removing them from Raquel Welch's breasts, with an end result that the director described as a "Las Vegas showgirl" effect. Fleischer pointed this out to the cast members -- and on the second try, the actors all reached for her breasts. Finally the director realized that he would have to choreograph who removed what from where, and the result is seen in the final cut.

Fantastic Voyage Reviews

With such titles as 2001: A Space Odyssey and Planet of the Apes, the 1960s proved to be a particularly rich decade for science fiction cinema, and Fantastic Voyage stands as one of the period's most imaginative efforts.

Full Review | Original Score: 3.5/4 | Jul 23, 2023

…even if the process work is poor by today’s standards, this voyage still seems fantastic today…

Full Review | Original Score: 4/5 | Mar 9, 2023

The science is shaky at best but the imaginative spectacle is marvelous: scuba diving surgeons battle white blood cells, tap the lungs to replenish the oxygen supply, and shoot the aorta like daredevil surfers.

Full Review | Mar 4, 2023

A nonstop adventure of sizable proportions.

Full Review | Original Score: 8/10 | Aug 24, 2020

Technically, the film is only too obviously under all kinds of strain, as if trying to live up to a budget which it never wanted in the first place.

Full Review | Apr 2, 2020

Ignoring the painfully slow first third, the rest of the film is an enjoyable, basic sci-fi adventure. It won't wow you, but it will entertain you.

Full Review | Original Score: 3/5 | Feb 7, 2019

"Fantastic Voyage" is a fun adventure with some incredible sets representing the inside of the human body. What it lacks in reality is made up by beauty and skill.

Full Review | Original Score: B | Oct 14, 2013

Not be as suspenseful as it once was, because we've seen many shots of the body's interior and we no longer have the undercurrents of the Cold War that made life itself an edge-of-the-seat affair. But it's still a fun sci-fi excursion.

Full Review | Original Score: 7/10 | Oct 11, 2013

Despite the film being nearly 50 years old, it's still pretty impressive what they were able to accomplish using practical photography. Sure it's campy, but it's the kitschy design that makes it so much fun to watch.

Full Review | Original Score: 3.5/5 | Oct 7, 2013

That it carries the viewer along is thanks largely to its kitsch charm, its energetic pace and the stunning sets designed by Harper Goff.

Full Review | Original Score: 3/5 | Aug 19, 2013

Half planetarium, half lava lamp

Full Review | Feb 6, 2010

Fascinating still, but suffers from lack of more sophisticated special effects. Still...imagine Raquel Welch moving around inside.

Full Review | Original Score: 3/5 | Mar 14, 2009

Their voyage through the body's bloodstream past assorted organs was created by inventive special effects that make this one of the more visually interesting science fiction films of its era.

Full Review | Original Score: 3.5/4 | Jun 4, 2007

The lavish production, boasting some brilliant special effects and superior creative efforts, is an entertaining, enlightening excursion through inner space -- the body of a man.

Full Review | Jun 4, 2007

This special effects extravaganza from 1966 has proved surprisingly enduring, despite a technical quality crude by contemporary standards; perhaps it's the screwball poetry of the plot.

...our own human interior was revealed, like a Jacques Cousteau travelogue, in screen-filling vistas of surreal canals and chambers filled with floating psychedelia and the amorphous Jell-O colors of a Jimi Hendrix concert.

Full Review | Jun 3, 2007

An opportunity missed, therefore -- especially as the imaginative sets are slightly tackily realised -- but fun all the same.
