The episode: Barney Thirteen – Star One (Carry On Space Pizza Monsters) The date: Tuesday, July 2nd, 2019 The time: 7.45pm UK time In which Travis has a really bad day; Lurena has the best-ever skincare product ever known since she doesn’t look a day older from her photo on Federation records; Avon is his usual gentlemanly self and gives Cally the primed explosives to throw over the cliff (although, having seen his attempt at running in Pressure Point, it’s perhaps the sensible option); and the Hairdryer Ship and The Cutlery Draw are involved in a big stand-off with the Libby crew. Episode in a word: Dramatic. Or climactic. Or some other word ending with “tic”. Character to cheer: Servalan, for using the oncoming Intergalactic War as an opportunity to seize the presidency. She never misses a trick. Bravo to her! (Is it wrong that I like the lead villainous so much? Mind you, as far as she’s concerned, she’s the hero of her own story, maintaining law and order against that murderous terrorist, Roj Blake). Character to boo: Difficult one – everyone shines here. Probably Avon for handing Cally the explosives. Recognisable Face: Jenny Twigge (Lurena) was Zammo’s mum in Grange Hill. As far as I’m concerned, you can’t get much more famous than that! Just Say No! Oh, and she’s a guest at the Cygnus Alpha convention in September. Best exchange: Oooh, tricky. But… VILA: “Avon, this is stupid!” AVON: “When did that ever stop us?” Blake's 7 will return in… Carry On Doing Watersports |

SPOILER ALERT BELOW... if you want to avoid the big reveal that Travis meets a sticky end in the episo... whoops!! As he plunged to his death down a nuclear reactor, having been shot by Blake and then shot by Avon, the final thought going through the mind of Travis was that it must be a Thursday. He'd never got the hang of Thursdays. Edited by trevor travis on 30 June 2019 13:57:21 |

Er.... spoiler alert?

My views are my own VILA: I'm entitled to my opinion. AVON: It is your assumption that we are entitled to it as well that is irritating. |

Sorry, I didn't mean to reveal the episode took place on a Thursday.  I think the assumption is that we've already seen all the episodes... it would be quite hard for someone to keep up with the rewatch comments otherwise  |

I believe that Jenna eventually realised that Blake just wasn’t interested, so she married Jamie McCrimmon instead. |

Although, I've worked out the solution: 1. Teleport down Vila 2. Teleport down Hugbot five seconds later, complete with flame-thrower 3. There's not a lock that Vila can't open if he's scared enough. |

Ahh, Star One, my favorite episode. One of the most uplifting B7 episodes, but also the one which makes me very sad. Last time we see those two properly working together. I'll miss their chemistry, and thinking about what lies ahead for both - tragic.  |

But this one always makes me smile. And Avon mirroring it later.   |

Back from the UK, recovering from a cold and then intestinal bug, was out watering the garden in the 97 degree heat and now, a respite of sorts, the rewatch, Carry On Space Pizza Monsters. Hello all! Zil: Oneness must resist the Host.
