45th Anniversary rewatch - C5 The Harvest Of Kairos
trevor travis
The episode: Colin Five - Carry On Captain Shad (The Harvest Of Kairos)
The date: Tuesday, August 1st, 2023
The time: 7.45pm UK time

In which Sid James stars as Jarvik, Barbara Windsor as Servalan, Kenneth Connor as Captain Shad, Kenneth Williams as Avon, Joan Sims as Cally, Charles Hawtrey as Vila, Jim Dale as Tarrant, Valerie Leon as Dayna, Peter Butterworth as Zen and Orac, and Hattie Jacques and Bernard Bresslaw as Boris The Spider. Oooooh, Marton! There's double-entendres aplenty, as all your Carry On favourites travel to the planet Kairos at the time of the Harvest, and Avon shows Cally his big rock!

Episode in a word: Smeghead! (Who? Keep on reading! )
Characters to cheer: It’s very hard not to like Jarvik The Caveman, despite him being a bit of a sexist. Or is he? I dunno. Ladies, what do you think? In any case, it’s Servie who has him carrying out her every whim and she also finally gets on the Libby flight deck. She’s great in this, with Jacs really enjoying the chance to camp it up – she plays a big part in making this episode so enjoyable.
Character to boo: To quote Dave Lister: “You know what the big joke is? From this particular phase in history we derive the phrase, ‘Beware of Greeks bearing gifts’ when it would be much more logical to derive the phrase, ‘Beware of Trojans, they're complete smegheads’!”. Well, it’s not just the Trojans, because that’s exactly what Tarrant falls for here. I bet it’s the last time Avon allows Tarrant in charge of the Libby for a week’s work experience.
Is Soolin looking lovely this week?: Yes.
Recognisable Face: Andrew Burt (Jarvik) was the original Jack Sugden in “Emmeradale Farm”. No really – he was!
Best line: “But first, there is the question of that degrading and primitive act to which I was subjected in the control room... I should like you to do it again.”

Servalan: Well, to get the obligatory Blackadder
reference out of the way, "My Bedroom is Just Upstairs."

Jarvik: I know, but I'd rather sing.

Jarvik: ♫ FEELINGS.... Woo woo woo FEELINGS ...♫
Servalan: Oh for the love of... someone just shoot him!

Jarvik: For all my life I'll feel it
I wish I'd never met you, girl... cough
You'll never come again... cough... feelings...

After all these decades, the 'accidental' shooting of Jarvik finally makes sense!

I may well be popping in and then out again this evening as The Seaton Tramway in Devon is running its Twilight Tram Service, starting at 6pm, the first of the season. They are running their trams up and down the tramway from Seaton to Colyton. You can watch all this via their webcams (I found them via Railcam). There is one set up at the main station (Seaton) then the RIverside Depot and then the Colyford stop (Where they go across the road). I just hope the rain holds off, especially for those who ride in the Boat Tram!!

The Trams run every 20 minutes normally.
Cold! You don't know the meaning of the word cold!
Cold is when you have ice on the INSIDE of your window!!

Just getting ready. Tea, biccies and choccie. It looks as though this evening's Twilight Tram run is down to one tram. The single decker red one has just gone upto Colyton to fetch the diners up there. I expect the weather has put most people off.

Hm, Harvest of Kairos tonight? Not exactly my favourite episode. The Red Shiny Robots of Vortis may have improved it.

But at least Dayna has a nice outfit!

Why are more people watching the Colyford cam rather than the Seaton one?

Yes, although I am not very keen on that pink costume from Volcano.
Although I think her best costume was the one she wore for a few seconds in Anthoy & Cleopatra...

That one is fun when someone jumps the lights and the camera flashes!

Servalan's costumes are the best of all of them. Except Dayna's purple tent.

I always wonder what went wrong when they filmed this episode as we see the exterior of Space Fleet Command but the interior of Servie's Crocodile Cruiser (which actually makes more sense).

Why a construction worker should be aboard either of them is also a mystery.
