UK Rewatch - B7 Killer
trevor travis
The episode: Barney Seven – Killer (Carry On Space Michelin Men). So, yes, it’s episode B7 of B7!
The date: Tuesday, May 17th, 2022
The time: 7.45pm UK time

In which we meet an “old friend” of Avon; Blake tries to stop a whole Federation colony dying from an airborne Space Coronavirus (answers on a Space Postcard as to how Blake, Avon and Vila avoid catching Space Coronavirus) ; and June’s Hudson most outlandish costumes appear!

Episode in a word: Plague!
Characters to cheer: Blake is quite selfless here – he puts himself at risk to try to save Fosforon. I just wish he didn't interrupt Dr Bellfriar at the end. Bellfriar is a sign that the Federation can have some quite decent people working for it.
Character to boo: Tynus turns out to be a bit of a toe-rag. Mind you, I get the idea that most of Avon’s circle of ‘friends’ are all as self-serving as each other.
Is Soolin looking lovely this week?: Yes.
Recognisable Face: Ronald Lacey (Tynus) played the Bishop Of Bath and Wells in “Blackadder II”. That involved threatening to put a red-hot poker up some rather unfortunate places, and he ended up with him in bed with Lord Percy. Oh, and a bonus in this episode. Not necessarily a recognisable ‘face’ as such, but Morris Barry (Dr Wiley, the autopsy bloke) directed a classic Doctor Who serial, “The Tomb Of The Cybermen” back in the mid-60s, before turning his hand to acting.
Best line: “When Avon holds out the hand of friendship, watch his other hand. That's the one with the hammer.”

Blake's 7 will return in… Carry On Kissing Cousins
Vote Og.

A new code brings much apprehension.
While Jenna takes Blake's condescension.

Tonight Dearest is watching the footie on the comp so I'm watching this smashing episode on my big flat screen TV. According to Mr D on one of the Convention DVDS, this is the episode in which our Gareth thought that his scenes were all over so he went and joined Peter T behind Zen and partook of some brown ale (or similiar) and then the director said that they had time to shoot another scene....somewhere there is a slightly merry Gareth trying to say his lines.....

Hi All
Its a bit chilly this evening. I am sure you are glad you are not in the hall Sue!

I have just read that having a flu jab offers protection against covid, and they are not sure why!!

Great story to start the evening, Sue. How are you? And hello to everyone else. Hope all is well. This isn't one of my favourite episodes, largely because Servalan isn't in it, but it has its moments. Vila fans seem to like it.

Cally finds the coordinates to Oldbury Power Station

Not in Gloucestershire.... not even close.

Wasn't that something he forgot after his first revolution attempt failed?

Paull, Michael, the rest of us will stay here in studio while you two get to roll around on the banks of the Severn. Have fun.

My theory is that the only person on Liberator who knew how to cut and style hair was Cally. Thus, everyone else's hair looks great, while hers looks.... like this....
