For five of them it's no secret, and one in particular.

Really should be the Meeting Place.

But...

Yeah, definitely no secret about Summer from Sarah Connor Chronicles :shock:

Caprica 6 is so so.

The other 3 I haven't seen apart from the Terminator 3 thing but I don't really remember her as I've been trying as hard as poss to forget the film :lol:

+1, It really should be repressed in your mind that film :lol:

I have to admit the only ones I've heard of are Kristanna Loken and Keanu Reeves. And I certainly don't have the hots for one of those. So I'd say overall, list fail. I was hoping this was going to be something like a Sorayama retrospective.

Apart from anything else, Angelina Jolie's first film role was as a robot...

Cyborg 3 or something?

Always hoped they'd show it on TV so I wouldn't have to spend any money on it :lol:

And as for BSG what about Boomer?

Waaaaaayyy nicer than Tricia Helfer imo (but then I always was a sucker for a brunette)

It probably has more direct impact on peoples lives than say the election or the Iraq war enquiry, that's not to say those topics aren't important.

Probably should have put it in the meeting place though.

Summat like that. She plays a robot who has the cure for a plague that's ravaged the world and Anonymous Hero has to escort her across a wasteland to wherever she needs to be. As you can see, the plot took a lot of work. I recall watching it and thinking 'christ she looks young'. Couldn't have been more than 17 or 18...

Ah, IMDB is your friend. Cyborg 2.

I've seen it so it must have been on TV at some point. Early in the life of Channel 5, I think. They did the classic thing of not telling you she was a robot until she was injured and then you got to see the wires and etc. Not exactly The Sixth Sense..

So Brigitte Helm doesn’t get a menton?

She played Maria in Fritz Lang’s Metropolis, and the robot version which took on her appearance.

Yep, I was hoping it was something either Sorayamaesque or real robots... :?

So I'm guessing that they were only allowed one entry per film/show in each category so only one each from BSG. They also missed out on Alice Kriege (spelling?) as the Borg Queen.
Anyway, do Replicators count as robots? Could have had Sam Carter from Stargate or pretty much any of the main cast of Atlantis.

Or the replicants from Blade Runner. There is probably some specialist out there who has the hots for R2-D2.

If she counts, put me down for 7 of 9.
