In this episode Mark talks about the epic space-opera, world wide cultural phenomenon, science fiction/fantasy franchise and universe of films, TV shows, books, comics and toys that is the one and the only 'Star Wars', created by George Lucas. The first film of the space-opera franchise, called simply 'STAR WARS' (now commonly known as 'Star Wars - Episode IV: A New Hope), was released back in 1977 - which Mark has been a fan of since he was a child. Mark talks about the overriding arc of the nine "Episodes" of the main Star Wars motion pictures that have been made - which range from stories of good vs. evil, light vs. dark, hope vs. fear - that span the so-called "Skywalker saga" which centres around and focuses on the Skywalker family, who are strong with "The Force" that binds all things in the Star Wars galaxy together. And Mark recites his Star Wars-themed poem "In A Galaxy Far, Far Away (A Star Wars poem)", and his poem "The Force".
