The Problem with Episode 200

 Hello everybody

Next week or so, we'll be resuming Lady Penelope's Odyssey for its 15th season!  

And as some of you might remember, I had mentioned that the very first episode of this forthcoming season would be the 200th of our campaign - something of a landmark, milestone or whatever that I intended to celebrate with a Very Special Episode (a concept which gave me hours and hours of ruminations, myriads of promising-but-eventually-doomed ideas and numerous returns to Square One...

And then I finally found a great idea for the beginning of our next season.

And then I recounted the episodes, just to be sure. And there were 200, not 199 as I had first (mis)counted. I probably forgot a Xmas special in my calculations - we'll never know.

Probably some timey-wimey interference...

So episode 200 is already behind us - it was the grand finale of season 14, with Penelope and her allies facing Kronos himself so I do think we did have a Very Special 200th Episode indeed.

And now... forward to Episode 201 !  Which will be based on Another Idea - I'm keeping the "ex-200" one in store for later (probably somewhere between episode 4 and 8, we'll see...).
