For the female fans of the show, Jamie Bamber was named number one in People's "Sexiest Men on the Internet" feature and got a two page spread in this week's magazine . . . . . the famous "oops, Xena tricked me into dropping my towel" scene from season two . . . .

I always thought it strange that the very British Bamber has to talk with an American accent on Galactica while his real-life wife - Doc Cottle's assistant who saved Adama - talks with her normal Brit accent and Lucy Lawless is allowed to retain her New Zealand accent.
