Funny, Lord John Marbury was NOWHERE to be seen in that clip.....

It's the title of the episode which the clip is from.

Correct. The name of the episode is "Lord John Marbury." He doesn't appear in in the entire episode.

Bartlet: 300,000 is an awfully large piece of troop movement for it to be on a whim. FitzWallace: Yes Sir Bartlet: This was long planned. Fitzwallace: Yes Sir Bartlet: All I’m trying to do right now I’m trying not to make eye contact with the CIA Director. Hahahaha

Yes, his was better. They f*cked up and he told them to do better NOW. In a crisis you need information, analysis and cool heads. Raging out is not helpful.

A few of them dropped the ball... It somehow went from 2 CVEs and 4 destroyers to 4 CVEs and 2 Destroyers. Neither of which, according to other people, India actually had. They had one CVE at the time, apparently.

@@kadindarklord If what you say is true (and I have no doubts that it is), then it's not just dropping the ball....it's shooting the ball with a shotgun and then still trying to play with it. Then again, this IS a television production, and one cannot expect them to get it completely correct. I could go on for days about what's wrong with the movie "10.5"...

Good catch. The Indian Navy only *HAS* 2 CVEs, and the radar image shown at 0:22 confirms 2 larger ships (CVEs) and 3 (shown) smaller ships (Destroyers), so the first report would have been accurate. 😏

@@ironman4do Except when this aired in 1999, the Indian Navy only had one carrier: the Viraat (ex HMS Hermes). She was a light fleet carrier which, at 30,000 tons, was larger than the WW2 Essex class. CVEs were escort carriers, typically converted merchantmen or light cruisers, about one third of that size.

@ironman4do 3 ай бұрын

@@dominicbuckley8309 Yeah. I was misremembering when the INS Vikrant (the first) was decommissioned. I was thinking it was in 1999, which would have meant it would have still been active while this would have been filming, but I was mistaken. It was decommissioned in 1997, so the Viraat would have been India's only active carrier at that time. At no point in history has India ever had 4 active CVE's though, which was more the point I was trying to make.

In this context, the letters "KH" are an abbreviation for Keyhole, not a complete designation but rather a prefix denoting, in general terms, a member of a particular series of reconnaissance satellites. The people in this scene would not speak of the prefix KH alone but would include the number, which is like a generation indicator, in this case probably KH-11 or KH-12.

@Constant_Of_Morality 3 ай бұрын

Doubtful that they would name what at the time (and still is) a Very Classified Satellite System, As well as naming out the Individual naming prefix for each satellite is rather unneeded in a briefing such as this when in regards to the type of Info and SIGINT it sees and it's importance at that time, It would probably matter much more with the NRO Imo.

A lot of things are supposed to be secret are well known. I can give you an example from the UK, the BT (British Telecom) Tower which was the GPO (General Post Office) Tower when built, was a significant Comms hub, a highly noticeable structure in the middle of London, but until about 20 years ago it still officially didn't exist.

Satellites don't get diverted by the way, you wait for one that's already in orbit to pass over the point you're watching. They don't have the fuel to be moved around at will.

@Elthenar Ай бұрын

You can divert them. But there are hard limits on the fuel so they don't do it on a whim, it cuts down on the life of the satellite.

I never understood this; a defensive measure to potentially offset a russian attack, but it’s a bad thing?

Narrative device, to show urgency. 'The President's in the situation room' means something big is going down, and Josh has to sell it to the viewer: putting the cookie back (big things going on, no time for small pleasures). It's more for the viewer's benefit to grasp it's going to be a tense moment, rather than to make logic from the character's POV.
