The Space Princess model in real life https://neozaz.com/blakes-7-in-charac...-princess/ It comes to the Steventon conventions. Steventon, South Australia? Oxfordshire. Don't philosophise at me you electronic moron.

32m: Dayna fakes an illness and Tarrant fakes a drugged out pacified state. Tarrant does a good job! I like when they show the Federation being evil instead of just saying it. Drugging the citizens is pure evil. |

22m: "But WHICH President?!" snarls Avon. Iconic. To quote the classics, "There can be only one." |

The liner guards look like a bunch of Royal Canadian Mounties. |

It's the guy from the Willy Wonka film! True star power tonight. It's probably the age difference, but when I see Roy Kinnear my first thought is Jerry the jerry-builder on George & Mildred (Desperately-poor clip: Click! ), also his very similar role on the movie 'Juggernaut' - another movie that will stop Tyce getting on a cruise liner - which also has Gareth Thomas is a brief cameo. He must have been good friends with Dame Judi Dench, as she's godmother to his son, Rory Kinnear, who played her offsider in the Bond movies. I love George and Mildred. Or George and Mildew as ‘Jerry’ says. |

I'm never sure if I thik the scale of Scorpio and the Space Princess look right together. The Space Princess is like a huge ocean-going cruise liner. Scorpio is a planet hopper rather than a full-on cargo ship, which sounds smaller sized to me. Yes! You'd think they would've been more aware of the GIANT ship attached to them. I guess Orac is running interference |

I like when they show the Federation being evil instead of just saying it. Drugging the citizens is pure evil. Ditto the fact Dayna couldn't get medical help on Earth, simply for being an outsider. Even though, as far as the doctor knows, she is a real passenger making the trip legitimately. |

It's Servalan! With the most amazing sweeping motion she removes her mask. Hair and makeup perfect, as usual <3 |

I hadn't realised, but Slave only gets two lines in this episode, and only right towards the very end. |

44m: Avon points his gun at Servalan AVON: He doesn't know you as well as I do. SERVALAN: Who does? Avon, would you be careful with the gun. My guards have orders to shoot you first. The price of my life would be yours. AVON: Well, now. The sacrifice might be worthwhile. SERVALAN: You're not the sacrificial type. |

47m: Servalan's final move is revealed - the gold planet has entered the Federation and so her useless black gold can be converted to useful gold, and the billions of dollars Avon got from her are worthless, now that the banks are taken over by the Federation. Avon laughs. The End |

Why don't they shoot at Servalan just as they start teleporting? |

Servie is a bigger, better, or certainly more practiced pirate than our heroes. Cynical we are, but not enough.

And yes, Servalan had been setting them up from the beginning. She knew Avon would suspect she was involved, but her move to take over the whole banking system was unexpected. Nice one, Ma'am!

Avon's hair looks much worse at the end compared to the start. |
