Very unusually, Ricky Manning insisted on every question being sent to him, so that he could pick out the ones he wanted to answer. Being a nice man, though, he obviously didn't want to disappoint anyone, so gave us a set of quick-fire answers to the questions he couldn't spend more time on. We've matched the answer to the question where we could - they're the text in italics.

So, here's what Ricky said: Apologies to all those whose questions I didn't get to individually, but the answers are: Yes. No. Forty-two. I don't know. If I told you, DK would kill me. Sometimes. Medication. Wait and see. Because it's actually French. Equal and original. Not a chance. You can hope, for all the good it'll do. What inspiration? None of the above. Slowly and painfully.

What was the best thing about working on Farscape? from Jeanie The paycheck; what else?

Would you like Crichton to find his way back home someday? from David Healey. But where is 'home?'

Farscape was slow to start and then blistered and shimmered for the best part of two and a half seasons, before it all going horribly wrong in the latest series, with unrealistic character behaviour, a loss of "reality" and poor writing. Do you think maybe it's a good idea that Farscape was cancelled before it completely destroyed its phenomenal reputation entirely? Yeah... go on, ask him that one [like you'd dare!] from Paul. The other way around, Paul.

What is the most interesting thing about working on Farscape? from Sarah. Groupies, without question.

Can I marry Rygel, or the old granny with three eyes. They're sexy, from Stewart (14 years old). Stewart, make up your mind.

And finally, Scott wrote to say - Just wanted to let you that Farscape is the best damn TV show ever and our new girl that was born on Oct 7 2002 was named Aeryn, so this family will never forget your wonderful show.

And happy birthday to young Aeryn.

Thanks to all, and take care.
