(25,586 posts)The rose window is a dimensional portal in the program. Likely the poster is unaware of the rose window in the Notre Dame cathedral and assumed the discussion was related to the show.
I don't watch very much of the Television Box Thing so I missed that reference.

(1,124 posts)probably countless other pieces of art are lost. Just from a historical stand point it's tragic. On an emotional level this is just devastating.

Face nord les rosaces semblent avoir tenu. Sur la rue, au sol, aucun débris de vitraux. Juste des vieilles pierres éclatées... « on reste inquiet » glisse un pompier.
