Aliens capture Seven, Harry and the Doctor, while back
on Voyager Tuvok is coming over all "odd". Worse still, this
week's bad-guy aliens hate holograms so the Doctor hides his
programme in Seven's implants and accidentally takes over
her body. While inside Seven the Doctor gets his first taste
of food, gets sexually aroused and gets to flirt.
Body
and Soul finally sees the Doctor getting into Seven's
knickers while Tuvok gets so randy he shags a hologram of
his wife. Yes, Voyager does sex, and rather well too. No sugar-coated
moralising, no twee avoidance of "rude stuff" - all round
it's a winner. Better still, it's very funny.
Harry,
Seven and the Doctor (again) get caught up in a local war.
But who are the good guys and who are the baddies? Is the
stranded medical ship really what it seems or does its crew
have something to hide? Harry thinks he can trust them but
not everyone is what they seem.
Nightingale
is a little flat in parts but there are twists aplenty and
some halfway decent dialogue for Harry for a change. And despite
the lumps the story creates plenty of atmosphere. This week's
subplot is naff but apart from that it's a pretty effective
episode.
