Heading back over to tantalising flashback territory now, and to an epic sequence that served up arguably the most exciting unexplored avenues Disney+'s recent Obi-Wan Kenobi series had to offer; outside of that long-awaited rematch of the century, of course.

Your writer is, of course, talking about the bout of Jedi lightsaber practise that depicted a digitally de-aged Ewan McGregor and Hayden Christensen taking a duel down memory lane in Part V of the small-screen link between Episodes III and IV.

While the sequence involving Darth Vader remembering the lessons his former master attempted to teach him in the time before Attack of the Clones and The Clone Wars breaking out acts as a way of informing the events of the episode itself, in reality, all the adored flashback did was leave fans angling for more adventures and lessons to be played out between the two in all their live-action glory in the coming years.

Should Obi-Wan Kenobi find itself being gifted a second season that sees McGregor's Kenobi pick the brains of Force-Ghost Master Qui-Gon Jinn, there's every chance a few more pre or mid-Clone War events could be revisited. But why not just fully commit to the spin-off Master and Apprentice tales now while the lightsaber's hot? The leading lights aren't getting any younger!
