	* The ~~whereabouts~~ of Sire Uri ~~after~~ "[[Saga of a Star World]]" ~~remain unaccounted for in the ''Battlestar'' [[canon]]~~. It is ~~likely that Uri either never made it back to the Fleet, or that he kept~~ a ~~decidedly low profile due~~ to ~~his actions, as these possibilities would account for his absence in future episodes that featured all 12 members of the Quorum~~.		=== Character Conception and Portrayal ===
			According to ''[[So Say We All: The Complete, Uncensored, Unauthorized Oral History of Battlestar Galactica]]'', Sire Uri was portrayed by veteran actor [[w:Ray Milland\|Ray Milland]] in the pilot episode, "[[Saga of a Star World]]".<ref>{{cite book/sswa\|81}}</ref> The character is described as a "gluttonous and self-serving" politician who represents a significant political threat to Commander Adama's leadership.<ref>{{cite book/sswa\|10}}</ref>

	* In the Marvel comic book version of the episode, Uri associates with a woman of questionable virtue named [[Medea]].		Uri's primary role in the narrative is to advocate for peace and disarmament with the Cylons, a position that directly conflicts with Adama's military caution. This power struggle is a central theme in the pilot, with Uri attempting to wrest control of the fleet from Adama to pursue his naive belief in a Cylon treaty.<ref>{{cite book/sswa\|115}}</ref>

			=== Re-imagined Series Perspective ===
			Sire Uri has no direct counterpart in the [[Battlestar Galactica (RDM)\|Re-imagined Series]]. However, the political friction he represents is echoed in the complex and often adversarial relationship between Admiral [[William Adama]] and President [[Laura Roslin]], who frequently clash over military versus civilian control of the fleet.

			=== Additional Details ===
			* The whereabouts of Sire Uri after "[[Saga of a Star World]]" remain unaccounted for in the wake of the [[Battle of Carillon]]. He is neither mentioned nor does he appear again on the [[Quorum of Twelve (TOS)\|Quorum of Twelve]].

			* In the [[Marvel Comics\|Marvel comic book version of the episode]], Uri associates with a woman of questionable virtue named [[Medea]].

	* Although never featured in the series after "Saga of a Star World", Uri [[Uri (alternate)\|does show up]] frequently in both the Marvel Comics and the Berkley books.		* Although never featured in the series after "Saga of a Star World", Uri [[Uri (alternate)\|does show up]] frequently in both the Marvel Comics and the Berkley books.
