Nicely done, though. Makes me wonder who gave you access to Federation files....


Here's a photo of Vila and Bayban the Butcher. I told the AI to make them arm-wrestle...

Hi AA, Sorry didn’t see you there at first.

Hello Virn and Joe. Sorry I’m late.


Hello Tyce! Did you enjoy Seek, Locate, Celebrate?

TYCE! Hello again!

The pciture of Star One shows a sphere with lots of pink lights.

I've always assumed that's the planet orbiting the dying star, but could that be the network of satellite mines,surrounding the planet (which is nestled within, and invisible to us)? Having mines surrounding a planet makes more sense than having mines trying to block an infinite 3D space, but it can't be right, can it? It wouldn't be a defence zone, it wouldn't allow for the single gap Liberator defends at the end...

It was awesome!! I desperately wanted a bid on time with Jan (which was part of the fundraising auction) but sadly it was not an option because I had to leave the country.

Love the conversation about Travis's missing bits.

Cally! From now we’ll just call her Blake’s mother…..

That's such a weird photo. It looks like numerous settlements on the planet. I like your idea of mines - but there could be a minefield round the planet and another one towards the Andromeda galaxy, couldn't there?
 
Joe Dredd
I like all the costumes in this episode. Blake looks much better than in the batwing sleeves; Cally is in similar colours and looks efficient. Avon has his 'signature' Liberator top and the silver parka.

Oh... I've just seen Travis dressed as a monk.

... and Vila in his track suit. : /

What a shame! Glad you enjoyed it, anyway.

It doesn't make sense (like a lot of B7) but at least it's pretty.

I suppose those wispy bits are meant to be clouds, but it looks like a gappy matrix.

I was ‘torn between two lovers’ as the song says. Benny Andersson’s Orchestra was playing at the Circus Theatre in Stockholm on 11 June. It is probably the last time they will ever play. Tickets were like hens teeth, but I managed to acquire one. So unfortunately or fortunately depending on your perspective - off to Stockholm again it was.

I think if Travis really had killed Blake he'd be gloating a lot more enthusiastically.

I was thinking the same, but he wasn't when he shot the Blake clone at the start of 'Weapon' - but he knw it was a clone and he was demanding the other clone be brought to him, so perhaps it's not an entirely equivalent situation.

Why doesn't Travis shoot Avon? He's already aiming at them. Avon has to get up and whirl around to shoot Travis. Travis should've had enough time to react. Fair enough he could have been so hurt that his shot would've gone wild, but it would've been more dramatic (and realistic).

Maybe killing Blake (again, if you count the clone) wasn't quite as important as selling out the whole of humanity. After all, if you can't rule'em (because Servalan isn't the sort to share nicely), destroy them.

Avon is so gallant there - NOT. He hands the cylinder full of explosives to Cally.

The High Council would want to protect their investment in Star One, for sure.

Some poor alien has been winding it up repeatedly for the last 30 million light years.

I think he's too badly injured - he's struggling to stay on his feet, and he probably isn't seeing straight. It takes him an extra minute or two to work out which of the two Avons he is probably seeing is the real one, and in that minute Avon acts.
