Crazy few seconds of footage of the crew being rocked about inside the capsule before they cut the feed, just sitting motionless apart from the rocking. I wonder what they were thinking in that moment...

Probably "Well I wont be wearing these drawers again".

I wonder why Ariane haven't developed transport for astronauts to the Space Station. A few bob in it I believe.

The ESAs budget is about 5 billion Euros. NASA's budget is $20 billion. The US has a vastly larger budget to fund the development of new manned space hardware. It is much cheaper for the ESA to buy seats on Soyuz than pay for a crewed vehicle that would only have one or two flights a year at the most.
