SG #69 has this MPI ad from The Collector's Series on its first page. Similar to how I handled the Collector's Series' ad from SG #68 and the current Watching Project topic for Ep #33, I've decided to share this one in this topic because this is the latest ep that's also part of The Collector's Series:

Yes, I really like the ad too. I prefer it to the one I shared from SG #68. Though it certainly helps having a regal Liz front and center and having Vicki included when she wasn't in the other ad. Vicki's exclusion in that ad was something I found quite surprising given that in the Collector's Series Vicki is most definitely the show's central character...

Victoria is beautiful and pensive by the fire in the drawing room. She tells Elizabeth she is going back home. I wish they had elaborated on where home was to her and why?  Elizabeth comes in and I’m always taken by the resemblance between the two. Elizabeth is remarkably candid and says she is afraid for David and she no longer thinks of Vickie as a stranger. She wants her to stay and can’t answer why. She wants her to give love and understanding to David. Davis is eavesdropping and is upset. Vickie agrees to stay and goes into town.

In the drawing room Elizabeth says David cannot  deny he tried to kill his father. He will not be Sent away. Elizabeth says she will never stop loving him. She takes David to bed.

Roger is furious but more hysterical over the Burke situation. He lashes out at his sister that she has always run things her way. I wish they has explored their past more. Roger is hysterical again when Vickie comes in. Elizabeth makes a frantic call to a Ned Caulder.

Nice writeup, AD.

Liz is asking an awful lot of Vicki, in fact, she's asking a lot of everyone. She certainly has a lot of faith in fate. I'm glad she confronted David with the truth about his almost killing his father and his threats to Vicki.

Roger is a trip but because this is a soap I can totally relate to (and enjoy) his sarcasm. But in real life it would be totally unacceptable the way he talks to (and about) his son. Louie went all out in his scene with Bennett ranting and raving. I guess Roger has a lot to be upset about especially after talking to Sam. Surely he must feel the noose tightening. In any other soap (especially today) someone would have overheard Roger and Sam in the diner - really stupid move on Roger's part.

David Ford is still reading Mark Allen's lines and the delivery sounds preposterous coming out of his mouth. I can't remember if we know what Sam's sin against Burke is.
