UK Rewatch - D10 Gold
trevor travis
The episode: Derek Ten - Gold (Carry On Photocopying)
The date: Tuesday, December 3rd, 2024
The time: 7.45pm UK time

A reminder of the Season Derek drinking game, with one special addition for this episode:

Here’s the number of sips/swigs per each of these:
Avon is knocked unconscious 1
A scientist dies/is already dead (per scientist) 5
A member of the main cast wears the same costume as last week (per costume) 2
There’s the sequence (or part of the sequence) of Scorpio landing / taking off at Xenon Base 3
Vila drinks something red (per scene) 10
Tarrant falls in love 5
Soolin shoots someone (per person) 5
Slave says “sorry” (each mention) 1
Each mention of “Sleer” 2
Avon laughs manically and/or smiles inappropriately 5
There’s a downbeat ending in sharp contrast to the jangly end theme 10
The final shot of the episode includes Paul Darrow 3
A member of the main cast is killed or stunned (per cast member) 1 bottle of wine / 1 can of beer
There's a shot of the bottom of a certain blonde, lady gunslinger (per shot) 10

Back to the episode, and join us for a wonderful heist story, in which the crew have descended into common criminality… which was always going to happen at some point. Plus Roy Kinnear plays an old friend of Avon… so his character is obviously doomed! And there’s a mysterious ex-president in high heels… who could it be? Meanwhile, I will reward handsomely anyone who manages to get a photocopy of Soolin’s bum – I’ve got 18 billion of ‘valuable’ Xerox (as opposed to Xerok) currency to give away.

Episode in a word: Criminals.
Character to cheer: Soolin is so cool and wonderful in this one. Although some of that is while she’s killing innocent security guards. So maybe there’s no-one to cheer here.
Character to boo: Avon for getting out-manipulated by that mysterious ex-president in high heels. I who she is?
Is Soolin looking lovely this week: Yes.
Recognisable Face: Roy Kinnear was a character actor who starred in many, many films. I always remember him for his part in Willy Wonka And The Chocolate Factory.
Best exchange: AVON: “Why pick on us?” KEILLER: “You have a ship for the getaway. And a reputation for daring.” TARRANT: “Which you heard about where?” KEILLER: “Oh, I've known Avon, long time. We're old friends...” TARRANT: “That's not what I asked.” KEILLER: “On the grapevine, my friend. You're getting to be big news.”
Blake's 7 will return in “Carry On Dieting.”
Vote Og.

This episode seems to be fairly popular amongst fans. But not with me. Hollyhocks!! Over the last few years doing the Rewatches I have come to dislike the casual killing of bystanders just for monetary gain. Not the rebels of Blake!! So I wont join in the Rewatch and spoil everybody's enjoyment!
I look behind me, what do I see? A pair of golden wings seem to be attached to me.

Just getting ready. Mug of tea, biccies and those salted caramel choccie things shaped like Pringles.
I can understand your concern, Lorna, but I just love the model shots in this episode and the musak.
Cold! You don't know the meaning of the word cold!
Cold is when you have ice on the INSIDE of your window!!

Hi littleSue, Assam tea,caramel salted chocolate thins, getting ready.

I think Lorna you have to account people change, usually for the worst and building up to the end.
It was Roy Kinnear who kills needlessly.

Hi Brad, same here.


That's about average for us this time of year.

But no snow yet, and that's a tad unusual.

TT, you won't believe it. At Chicago TARDIS this past weekend, I was sitting in a hallway waiting for some photos we'd taken with actors to be ready and a regulation- sized Dalek glided down the hallway in front of me and a little bumper sticker on the back said it was 'Dalek Trevor'. I did a double take and burst out laughing. Darn, it wasn't you in the tin can- but I did think of you and your exploits during Dimension's con back in the day!
