That Andromedan ship looks like a clockwork toy. it probably is. Some poor alien has been winding it up repeatedly for the last 30 million light years.  |

Watching the credits - Parton, Marcol, and Leeth. It goes to show how long since I last paid attention to the credits. "Leeth" I remember, but not Marcol. There's a good B7 name, along the lines of Bercol. |

"Why didn't you stay in the medical unit?" - their last exchange until the end of "Blake". I don't believe Blake always trusted Avon - but he wants to believe he did, so he convinces himself it's true. And Avon thinks it through, but remembers he has a more pressing engagement. "You're not sulking, I hope?"

I think that's right. |

"I've always trusted you, Avon... trusted you to look after yourself first, at the expense of everyone else (etc)." It reminds me of a sitcom I saw where the manager is berating the staff - "You're all like children to me, and I expect from you what any father expects from his children... Ungratefulness! Sarcasm! Feeble excuses, and lies!" |

There's a good B7 name, along the lines of Bercol. They sound like place-names to me. Parton is certainly part of Whitehaven. "You're not sulking, I hope?"

That is a very dramatic ending. It must have been agonizing, seeing it when it first came out and not knowing what was going to happen. |

Anyway, nice to see you all. See you next week on Bamburgh beach, where there is a lot of careful photography to avoid a) the castle, and  the Farne Islands. |

No,it’s like when Blake says to Vila (when Villa is trying to take off Blake’s explosive necklace in Bounty) that he trust Vila. Vila says if this thing blows up, I blow up too and Blake replies that’s why I trust you. Blake trust Avon because he knows Avon has his own reasons for sticking with Blake. |

Bother. Our friends (well, my husband's friends...) have arrived an hour before they said they would. Great. Now I have to find lunch for them. Fun rewatch, everyone, but I shall have to get busy. Glad to see the demise of the Andromedan Pizza - the flavour never caught on - and I'd love to see more of Joe's gifs! See you next time! "You're not sulking, I hope?"

I was in Tassie on holiday and my phone broke and unfortunately I missed my reminder for this. To miss a SERIES FINALE is UNFORGIVABLE. Off on The London for me. |

It's freezing here in Sydney, dodgyville. I can only imagine what it's like in Tasmania at the moment. |

I think the rebels probably sabotaged your phone. Can't trust them. See you next time! "You're not sulking, I hope?"
