Starting at 7.30pm (AEST) or UK 10.30am (BST) and Tyce 11.30am (CEST) C4 Dawn of the gods. In which there is no Servalan. Enough said? Orac, not for the first time, endangers the Liberator and its (her?) crew in order to investigate something it (he?) finds fascinating. Cally finds herself acting out what she thought was a fairy tale, Vila finds himself on the wrong side of the airlock, while Tarrant and Avon finally do some work. Eventually, Orac tries to make amends and everything gets sorted out. More or less. This is probably as near as B7 comes to a happy ending (I don't count the 'jokey' ones) because nobody that matters gets killed, not even the baddie. "You're not sulking, I hope?"

HI, feeling a bit sleepy, having been up ridiculously early to finish making my son's birthday cake. He wanted Strawberry Shortcake, so...  I took a picture of it so that I can show him what it was supposed to look like - because my husband is transporting it by car, and who knows how it will end up! "You're not sulking, I hope?"

Hi MsVirn and Tyce. All good with you? You SEND your son a cake, MsVirn? Does he own a cookbook?
Don't philosophise at me you electronic moron.

Series F is the one where the cast turnover becomes really apparent. It's Cancer the bounty hunter and 6 Space Rats |

Well we're ready - but where are the rest of them? How's your DVD player going MsVirn? Recovered? Still doing the deinterlace thing. Seems to work. If anyone knows what it means, it might help. "You're not sulking, I hope?"

This is genuinely an amusing idea that in the down time between overthrowing governments they play board games. |

I think they should chuck Orac out an airlock. On my first watch through of B7 (during Covid) I had no idea where any of the plots were going and Orac's first few episodes are kind of crazy and a bit dark. I think its 2nd or 3rd episode a being from another galaxy uses it as a bridge. It's kind of an alarming character. |

They're letting you take on the Justice System? Hope it doesn't drag on too long. Hope the hand is healing, too. How's Fergus? "You're not sulking, I hope?"

Is it trying to do it, or not do it, or saying you should ought to do it? Default setting is 'Auto'. If I don't do anything, I get sound but no video. When I switch it to 'on', still the same, but if I then go back to 'auto' I get video. Weird. "You're not sulking, I hope?"

Sorry to hear all that. Such a run of bad luck. Jury duty means I miss a nice get-together with furniture restorer friends too. I hope things are a lot better with you.

4m: The Liberator is off course and curving away from its intended path Tarrant leaps instantly to a traction beam? And when people point out there's no such thing he accuses Cally's people of messing with his mind. I mean, you'd think a gravity well would be everyone's first call. Not a massive fan of his space tunic tonight. It's more tunic than space. Just a tunic really.  |
