STARTING AT 8.30PM IN AUSSIELAND, 09.30 AM IN THE UK A3 a.k.a MR SHOUTALOT GETS SORTED Our heroes (although they haven't done much that's heroic as yet) set sail in their* shiny new ship, (heroically) aiming to rescue the people they left behind on the FCAS London. Presumably Blake sees security in numbers, although what he hopes to gain from a bunch of convicted criminals is beyond me, especially since his previous plan ended up getting several of the original group killed. They might think twice about following his lead this time. In the end, the rescuing goes terribly well, and after some jolly japes the crew increases by...two. Not sure what happens to all the others they leave behind, but it doesn't look promising. *for a given value of 'their'. "You're not sulking, I hope?"

G'day folks. Actually, in the UK it's cold, wet and miserable outside with a side dish of melting snow. No way am I going out in this. Am wondering what it's like downunder...heard tell of heat waves, record rainfall - what's going on? AnneA - thanks for the PM, will reply after the rewatch!. Anyway, onwards, to Cygnus Alpha! "You're not sulking, I hope?"

Hello Peeps….. The length us Blake’s 7 fans will go to just to do a rewatch is extreme!!! I’m a couple of thousand kilometres from home but I still managed to bring my DVDs, track down a DVD player and get it plugged in and programmed into a TV. So I’m here ready and waiting. :-) I hope you are all well. Tyce |

Well done, Tyce! You put the rest of the upside-downers to shame! Hope all's well with you,

Hi folks. Just putting my DVD into VLC instead of Apple's DVD player, which I find annoying. Heard about the miserable weather on Oxford radio the other day MsVirn. Definitely stay inside and let the dog walk itself. In Tassie Tyce! A get-away would be nice – I think. Don't philosophise at me you electronic moron.

Standard procedure would be to give name and rank at the start of a message back to HQ, Leylan. Anyone might think you were talking to the camera.

If the air is dosed with suppressants, how come Laylan and Artix aren’t sleepy. |

You've got something against the poor man, haven't you? I just see him as someone who's so fed-up and bored with his job that he couldn't be bothered getting anything right.

Hello everyone. Glad to hear your mother is recovering well, Tyce. I was watching the Australian Open tennis tournament the other day, and the audience were all wearing thick coats. It's usually the heat they need to worry about! |

'conceptually alien' - Blake trying to use big words like Avon....it's never going to end well.

I like the character, it's just the acting I object to. "You're not sulking, I hope?"

Evidently important enough to keep her in a long time. Don't philosophise at me you electronic moron.

I wonder what would’ve happened if Blake had touched Jenna just at that point. |

Do we think that this is because it is night, and that it might be a bit less bleak by daylight? Maybe even some grass? |

The London is really a daft-looking thing: kinda cute and clunky.

Bracelets. So whoever built the Liberator must have arms, or something like them.

Bracelets. So whoever built the Liberator must have arms, or something like them. Or necks, or tentacles, or just very thin bodies? But we find later that they are actor-shaped aliens. |

They only release the prisoners once they’ve taken off. What happens if something goes wrong with the release mechanism?? |
