Saw a brief re making of Blake's 7 on Utube all new casts & very young too. Didn't seem to have the same feeling as the original episodes. Been trying to see if there's a full length movie if so I like to grab a copy. Australia

At the shopping centre there's a manicure place, seems they're Asians but what caught my eye was the name of the store.... ........ ZEN ..... . I tried to snap a photo to show you all but it after multiple attempts it got the better of me & I'm no computer whiz sorry all. When I lived in Oxford I often saw a van with ORAC on its side - Oxford Refrigeration and Air Conditioning. Cool. Those are the sort of things we used to post in the 'You know you're a mad, sad B7 fan when...' thread. "You're not sulking, I hope?"

Why did Avon not make a little remote for ORAC? It would have been useful. It's a shame that ORAC's little friend(s) didn't make the trip also. But Ensor doesn't even think of it. Yes good point. |

How does Servalan know where they are? That map is not like a shopping centre information map which has a big sign saying ‘You are here’. |

Now Blake's losing his touch as well. He didn't say 'he's dead'.

I love the way Servalan sounds like a frustrated housewife at times.

That may be right Obsidian but I think here both Avon & Servalan are equally matched.... Then I could be wrong... lol.. Australia

The 'trouble' Servalan refers to ends up with her sending Travis to the cleaners...and by the time we see him again, he looks and sounds subtly different....

They would have done all the beach scenes at the same time. Saves time, money, catering etc etc.

Sorry, Tyce, I seem to have deleted your post - the one asking when they filmed the last bit with Travis. I was trying to quote it, but...oops.

Hmmm. How did we survive the wait between series? Then again, I might have had fieldwork and a sub-thesis to write. That would have filled some of the time...

That explains it. The only bit NOT Stephen was when they were in the corridor of Ensor's base. They filmed a double's feet, which are decidedly FLAT! Don't philosophise at me you electronic moron.

That's a good way to end a series - although I do feel that ORAC is being slightly dishonest. It could - and should, as a good logical computer - have said that this is not the same space vehicle as the one they are travelling on. It is hard not to feel that it is trying to make itself indispensable to its new masters/servants. |
