UK Rewatch - D12 Warlord
trevor travis
The episode: Derek Twelve - Warlord (Carry On Radioactive Airborne Virus)
The date: Tuesday, December 20th, 2022
The time: 7.45pm UK time

A reminder of the Season Derek drinking game - no additions needed, since plenty of the below occur!

Here’s the number of sips/swigs per each of these:
Avon is knocked unconscious 1
A scientist dies/is already dead (per scientist) 5
A member of the main cast wears the same costume as last week (per costume) 2
There’s the sequence (or part of the sequence) of Scorpio landing / taking off at Xenon Base 3
Vila drinks something red (per scene) 10
Tarrant falls in love 5
Soolin shoots someone (per person) 5
Slave says “sorry” (each mention) 1
Each mention of “Sleer” 2
Avon laughs manically and/or smiles inappropriately 5
There’s a downbeat ending in sharp contrast to the jangly end theme 10
The final shot of the episode includes Paul Darrow 3
A member of the main cast is killed or stunned (per cast member) 1 bottle of wine / 1 can of beer

In which the photocopier makes a return appearance, but this time around it is deadly and wipes out multiple scientists! Also, we see Servie for the last in the show (sob!), Soolin has to save Avon's backside (again!) and Tarrant falls in love (again!). And the threat of Pylene-50 being pumped into the atmosphere forces Avon to try to form an anti-Federation alliance. He doesn't want to become a zombie. If only he'd been pro-active and done that around the time of Harvest Of Kairos, when he still had Liberator and the Federation was on its knees!

Episode in a word: Virus.
Character to cheer: Soolin. She again proves she is quick witted, shows empathy to Zeeona and Tarrant, and is particularly deadly in this episode.
Characters to boo: Vila is rather a sorry alcoholic in this one, although who can blame him after his ‘best friend’ tried to murder him in the previous episode. And Avon's smile at the end is truly chilling - did he know Zeeona was going to commit suicide?
Is Soolin looking lovely this week: Yes.
Recognisable Face: Bobbie Brown (Zeeona) was one of Ming’s serving girls in Flash Gordon – Dale Arden got her drunk.
Best exchange: DAYNA: “It's going badly.” VILA: “Hardly surprising. Avon's idea of diplomacy is like breaking someone's leg then saying ‘Lean on me.’”
Blake's 7 will return in “Carry On Dying.”
Vote Og.

Zukan disdained rebel connections.
And unleashed a nasty infection.
Though his heir apparent, fancied our Tarrant,
She didn’t use proper protection.

I was wondering... has anyone worked out how many drinks per episode the Derek drinking game adds up to?

The blows to Avon's head alone could get you drunk.

That's it! Avon doesn't go mad, he has CTD.

Actually on time for once, and I've dealt with a satisfactory number of rebels from 1381 today. This is a good beginning.

I understand CTD means Conductivity , Temperature and Depth!

Cumulative Trauma Disorder. As in repeated concussions.

That elevator thing... if they are only alive because someone needs workers, making them mindless zombies is probably a kindness.

I'm not sure if 'kindness' is quite the appropriate word!

Tarrant and Avon visited Betafarl, and Tarrant's taste in women has dramatically improved.

Blake's actions were a futile enterprise all-round, especially since they resulted in a number of otherwise avoidable deaths and a lot of suffering, not to mention the expense of fixing everything he broke, which meant everyone had to pay more tax..

Note to Zeeona, dying your hair bright pink is not conducive to incongruity.
