Mami asked Jodi Taylor:

Hi Jodi! 👋 Getting my barely-young-adult son into the classic sci-fi stuff, and this weekend we started on the original "The Twilight Zone" series. Of course the 1st episode, "Where Is Everybody?" Made him gasp, as the main character is in a jumpsuit. I'm ashamed to say, he caught this before I did - but of course he wants to know if this was inspiration. 🥰

Jodi Taylor Hello. Kudos on getting your sun into classic sci-fi. And The Twilight Zone as well! No, the jumpsuit wasn't inspired by Where is Everybody. When I was putting together my thoughts for St Mary's, I spent some time thinking about what they would wear - what was practical - and so forth. Jump suits seemed ideal - especially as techies often wear orange. I chose blue for historians because it was my favourite colour.
