UK Rewatch - B9 Countdown

This week, we find out another way that the Federation keeps control, despite only having a handful of personnel on a planet. And poor Jenna and Cally are on Libby reception - again! Episode in a word: Grant. Character to cheer: The Ginger Mercenary, who seems to have liberated more planets than Blake (which isn’t that hard, to be honest). Character to boo: Vila is a bit thick for a second successive week. Opening the shuttle doors was stupid. Forgetting the corridor number could have been fatal to Blake. Staying alive definitely seems too complicated for Vila this week (to paraphase Avon from “Blake”). Is Soolin looking lovely this week?: Yes. Recognisable Face / Hair: Tom Chadbon (Grant) was Duggan in the classic Doctor Who serial “City Of Death”, which was filmed around six months after this. He was also in an episode of Out Of The Unknown, in which his moustache definitely looked ginger, but don’t tell Paula I said that, or she’ll chase me around with a Welsh Street Sign next time she sees me. Chadbon was also in Casino Royale for 18 seconds or something like that and in various episodes of “Casualty” for a bit longer. He appeared naked in something in the 70s, but you’ll have to ask Paula about that one! Best exchange: “VILA: “Allow me. You see - the old magic's still there.” AVON: “The old ego, too.” Blake's 7 will return in… Carry On Being Stupid * The wearing of Ginger Wigs is optional for this rewatch. Vote Og.

RALLI: And while I'm doing all that, what are you going to do? No, I am not. I am not expendable, I'm not stupid, and I'm not going.
