bad wolf, no biscuit

"In the game of runes, the rune Teiwaz stands in for the Norse god Tyr, who bought a great victory by sacrificing his hand to the wolf Fenris. Granted, Sam’s probably the only one in this Manchester precinct who’d know that story, but it fits this episode all too well — and you’ll be making a similar sacrifice if you miss it." - Now Playing Magazine
Okay, so it's fine for other people to ponce about with mythology references, but not me? Just checking. Duly noted.
Btw, did you notice that Gene's High Noon poster returns in later episodes? I hope someone was sacked for that one - grin.
( more: there was an ick factor )
