Apologies for the late arrival of this thread. Duel - swords, pistols at dawn? No, just Blake and Travis with pointed sticks. Not even a banana between them (obligatory Monty Python reference). If you don't have access to the episode , it can be found at dailymotion.com https://www.dailymotion.com/video/x7v...ist=x6tx7b "You're not sulking, I hope?"

Glad you did that MsVirn, otherwise I was going to. I like the non-nut throwing myself. All good with you? Don't philosophise at me you electronic moron.

I wonder if the planet would have been 'Earth-like' anyway, or if the conditions were manufactured to suit the duellists?

Jenna wants to 'get away from this lot' - does she mean the control panels and piloting, or is she referring to the bickering? I think the latter, but she then opts to go down with Blake, one of the worst bickerers.

Hi everyone. Sorry I'm late. I think I'm perhaps in the minority here in finding the two mystic ladies a bit irritating? |

Most of them are still trying to find their characters, really. Jenna is caught somewhere between piracy and pretty blonde dimbo, Gan doesn't really have a role, Vila is already stereotyped etc etc.Avon is fully Avon, but then, he would be.

Hi everyone. Sorry I'm late. I think I'm perhaps in the minority here in finding the two mystic ladies a bit irritating? Hi AA Glad you made it. You're right; I don't mind the ladies at all. I don't go with mystical stuff usually, but I like that they are snappy. Don't philosophise at me you electronic moron.

Hi, Anne. Yes, they're a bit irritating. It's the way the director uses their voices for me.

Jenna's obviously not dim and, thank the gods it's the 70s, 'cos there's no expectation (as in the 90s onwards) that she have her bosoms hanging out. Gan is the wild card.

They're both lovely but we had got used to the idea of the first one. The new one will be lovely, of course. Just now have to think of a new name. Pedigree name is L'Trend Meet the Press. I ask you! Called Gossip. Call her Blake? Don't philosophise at me you electronic moron.
