Summer start times - Downunder 7.30pm (AEST) UK 10.30am (BST) B6 Trial In which Travis stands trial for his many crimes. Last week Servalan promised to 'bury' him for endangering her life (again), and this is her first option - doing it by the book, as one might say. It's B7's version of a court scene. As you might expect, things don't go quite as smoothly as she planned. Meanwhile Blake wonders why everything keeps going wrong for him and goes off on his own to have a little think about it. This doesn't go well either, and he manages to cause the end of yet another life before he teleports back aboard the Liberator. "You're not sulking, I hope?"

The Space Command Players Present... TRIAL The (hasty and somewhat tenuous) Musical Introduction Trooper Par gives the ground-eye view One Last Drink is All I Can Do One last stand, one final drink * Middle In the Courtroom, political machinations play out secretly Outlaw's Judgement Servalan's whispers dark and cold She wants Travis's story untold * Conclusion Zil teaches Blake, meaning Blake learns Zil(ch)? Oh! Hang on a minute! Are you telling me that the Host is a metaphor for the Federation? Resist the Host Oneness will be absorbed, they say But Blake can't think and swim that way = = = = = = = Major Thania appears courtesy of Grompot's 'Limp & Greasy' Shampoo.

I felt the judicial bench were corrupted by Servalan in more ways than none. She has ways of getting things done to suit her needs.
Australia
The Penal Colony Where Servalan is supreme commander. |

HI, Pilot!. How are things with you today? Here in the UK it's finally dry and the sun is shining. It's even warm - I can go outside without a coat! Whole new vibe to life after a long cold wet miserable autumn/winter that went from end of October till beginning of May with hardly a dry day. And an episode with Servalan to look forward to. Brilliant.

I felt the judicial bench were corrupted by Servalan in more ways than none. She has ways of getting things done to suit her needs. Of course. That's why she's in charge. The trick is not to let people see how she's doing it! "You're not sulking, I hope?"

Someday I'm going to start on time and be five (or ten) minutes ahead of everyone...but where would be the fun in that?

Thania's Limp & Greasy Shampoo. Brilliant Joe Dredd! Hope you're well when not devising verse. Raining here in the Australian National capital. Happily, we've had a dry spell so the leaves are looking fab, unlike the last few years when all we've had is lots of wet and soggy brown. Everyone well? Pilot? How are you this week? Don't philosophise at me you electronic moron.

So Anonymous of Canberra has an excuse - hope she's enjoying herself at Eurovision - but where are the rest of you?

Good evening, Obsidian, good morning MC1, good day pilot! Sorry, internet is lagging terribly all of a sudden. Perhaps the rotten rainy weather has got into some fibrous node or Telstra pit somewhere. |

Probably them. Don't philosophise at me you electronic moron.

We never get to hear from the prosecutor. Not that it matters. Travis is guilty until proven innocent.

This Travis isn't guilty. It's the other Travis' fault.

Par has the triangular tabard over his uniform. Lye doesn't. I don't think I've noticed that before. |

No-one said anything about that old-fashioned notion of justice. Nearly half a century and we're still finding bits we hadn't noticed before! "You're not sulking, I hope?"

In S1, we were told Travis had massacred the civilian population of Auros. In S2, we learn he's done the same on Zircaster. Travis has literally murdered his way from A to Z. |

I like Thania and the arbiters' unfiorms, though the Federation logo on Samor looks too wide. |

The Friday would probably be better than the Saturday for me, as the buses are likely to be more reliable. |

I always feel that I like the Travis half of this much more than the Blake half. Does anyone else feel like that? |

I love the game Jenna and Avon are playing. Gan's probably in the canteen wondering where all the salt and pepper has gone. |
