MillenniuM ~ Lamentation

From Chris Carter (Creator of The X-Files), comes MILLENNIUM - a spellbinding series about the struggle between forces of good and evil at the end of the 20th Century.

Lance Henriksen is Frank Black, an ex-FBI agent whose ability to enter the minds of killers has come as both a blessing and a curse. After a breakdown caused by fears for his family’s safety, Frank has moved them across the country - as far away as possible from Washington, DC.

In Seattle, Black’s ability to delve into the psyche of murderers has made him a valuable consultant for the mysterious and clandestine Millennium Group, an organisation of former law enforcement officials dedicated to fighting the rise in crime as the new millennium draws closer. Frank helps the Group solve the most difficult of cases through his special abilities and begins to feel he is finally using his gift to protect others.
 

Chris Carter's Millennium premiered in 1996 and ran for three consecutive Seasons until shortly before the real Millennium occurred. Sarah-Jane Redmond portrayed the seductive and fascinating Lucy Butler, an earth bound manifestation of pure evil and a representative of Legion. Ten Thirteen Production's (Chris Carter's Production Company named after Carter's Birthday no less) also cast Sarah-Jane Redmond with the fantastic Lance Henriksen, who was pre-determined by Carter to play the role of central character Frank Black. Carter also introduced Terry O'Quinn as the mysterious but overwhelmingly professional Peter Watts (Black's supervisor and mentor in the Millennium Group, himself a distinguished ex-veteran of the FBI's Violent Crime Task Force). The triangle was complete and would be forever savoured by the series' loyal fans.

Sarah-Jane provided an immediate and intriguing depth to Lucy Butler, leaving fans of Millennium always eager for more information about her exact nature and what she could be capable of. There can be no doubt that this role, amongst the many brought to life by Sarah-Jane, will always be the most revered by those viewers of Millennium.

It is with great pride, that we provide the following downloadable video clips of Sarah-Jane Redmond bringing to life the demonic Lucy Butler. The clips available commence with her first meeting with the Millennium Group's Frank Black and Peter Watts, in Season One's disturbing episode Lamentation. Those who are familiar with Lucy Butler's complete list of appearances throughout all three Season's of Millennium, will immediately notice and appreciate the shaky and troubled persona Lucy displays as she opens the door to greet the investigative team, Lucy may be pretending to be a vulnerable upset housewife but such fans will recall full well what she is capable of and the suffering she would bring to the unfortunate victims who would later cross her path. Lamentation was written by Chris Carter and Directed by Winrich Kolbe.

The second video clip from Lamentation is a terrifying scene and one which brought great sadness from fans of Detective Lieutenant Bob Bletcher (Bill Smitrovitch). Here Bletcher attends the home of Millennium Group profiler Frank Black and witnesses Lucy Butler in a very unique way.

Thirdly, we have a fantastic closely shot confrontational scene between Lucy Butler and Frank Black, which explores and demonstrates the fantastic chemistry between Sarah-Jane Redmond and Lance Henriksen. Pure dynamite and a recipe for success which will feature again and again throughout this excellent series.
