45th Anniversary rewatch - A5 The Web

Oh, and Cally gets taken over for the first time, after being on Libby for around five minutes. This possibly doesn’t bode well for the crew. Especially if she gets taken over by Talkie Toaster and forces them to eat 59 slices of toast each day (obligatory Red Dwarf reference). Episode in a word: Decimas. Characters to cheer: The homicidal maniacs, who are so much cuter than the homicidal maniacs from last week’s episode. Character to boo: That gestalt thingy in the fish tank. Is Soolin looking lovely this week?: Yes. Recognisable Face: Deep Roy (Decima) played Mr Sin in the Doctor Who serial The Talons Of Weng-Chiang. He was also EVERY Oompa-Loompa in the revamped Charlie And The Chocolate Factory movie. Oh, and of course in B7, he was also Ze Klute, Moloch and a Link. Best exchange: BLAKE: “What caused the malfunction? Well?” ZEN: “Involvement is not permitted.” BLAKE: “If the ship's blown up, lofty disinterest won't save you.” Blake’s 7 will return in… Carry On Space Commander Vote Og.

It keeps you enthralled, even if the special effects could be better. We learn more about our crew and how they interact!! I look behind me, what do I see? A pair of golden wings seem to be attached to me.
