OK, turned up at 9.30 - so I'm early for once!

Hello all, back again! I hope you are all well. After a couple of very stressful weeks, I finally got all my legal cases from the peasants' revolt translated in time for Christmas - and the good news is that there is more work in the new year! Now for a bit of peace and quiet.

Hi Tyce and Anne Arthur. How goes it?
I made it! Hooray! But am typing on an iPad mini and watching B7 on Britbox. Let’s see how we manage. Family is eating pizza in another room.

Good news Anne! My January is looking busy already.

I’ve started on 9:00. I love this bit of Scorpio taking off - brilliant start to the final ep.

Hi Obsidian, All good here. Mother is busy doing her usual Christmas thing of watching and complaining about the carols.

Avon’s hair is looking lovely.

Too early for bed?

I love this beginning too - and very final, blowing up the base.

She should try Blake's 7 - no carols.

The new, tougher-but-jaded Blake is excellent as well.

This Arlen’s doing well for a teenager.

He is very good. I would have liked to have seen more of him. And I remember watching the first time and really not being sure whether he was a real bounty hunter or not.

I think so. The amount of flak she got was ridiculous.

I’m actually more than happy with the original version of Blake’s character.

I am just going to point out Tarrant being noble here.

ORAC over-riding Slave is where it all starts going wrong. If they had had more warning of the attack things might have gone better.

The Scorpio crash sequence is very good. As is the stillness afterwards.

I like how he changes though. I would say that he, Avon and Vila are all suffering from Complex PTSD , where they’ve all experienced so many set-backs and disappointments that they’re a mess. Each personality responds differently. The lack of trust thing is a recognised aspect of the condition and they all have it in different ways.

Lovely David Collings. Must find the version of A Christmas Carol with him as Bob Cratchett and watch it tomorrow. He’s so lovely. I think TPTV has it.
