The Bad Batch 1.10: Common Ground

Star Wars: The Bad Batch
1.10: Common Ground
“The Batch has their ideology challenged.”

24 minutes plus credits.

Since they had to go on the run after refusing unjust orders and aren’t entirely happy about being mercenaries, that’s a pretty vague description...

Guest voices this week include Alexander Siddig, Shelby Young, and Sian Clifford - Claire from Fleabag following Phoebe Waller-Bridge voicing a Droid in Solo.

We open on a fantastical city on an unfamiliar world. Raxus, the Separatist capital.

(A city that looks kind of like Edinburgh on a sunny autumn day.)

And the Empire is here. Claiming not to be the enemy... and that doesn’t last long.

Do the Batch help a Separatist planet against the Empire? Cid wants them to and holds their debt over them, but is that reason enough?

Nobody’s happy to - especially Echo.

And the last noticeable bits of footage from the series trailer happen here. Meaning - Walker Fight!
