Subject: A New Species Of Carnivorous Plant (light-hearted)

UK network television, Channel 5, shows a cult (ie low-audience)
Sci-Fi series on Friday evenings called 'LEXX'. Last week's episode
included a new species of carnivorous plant consisting of a
quasi-independent shape-changing lure (in this case looking like an
attractive female) which entices prey back to the major plant
structure, a jellyfish-like thing dangling from the ceiling which
somehow sucks the prey into its digestive chamber.

I didn't understand a posting of a few days ago - did the UK CPS get
gold at Chelsea?
