Rewatch Downunder - D7 Assassin, Saturday 12th November

Avon does have a thing for getting himself captured in order to get information. Masochistic streak? Desire to prove himself?

Season 4 is when they started all of the elaborate alien costumes.

Are there any poisonous crabs?


According to google, quite a few. Apparently spider crabs, which you get in Britain, are poisonour - but not enough to hurt humans.


I think it's mainly if you eat them. Needless to say, we have toxic crabs in Australia. I would have made it with a big claw that zaps you.
Don't philosophise at me you electronic moron.

TALL, dark, obviously important... Servalan is TINY, it's her personality that's HUGE.

Neebrox is one of the good things about this episode.

I like the exchanges between Servalan and Verlis.

Well, he's not Blake. I think it's a case of "If you want a job well done, do it yourself".

Servalan has no idea what a Vem is, or what it's worth, and doesn't care...

But I like that - she ACTS tall, so suggestible people like Neebrox, think tall.

I've mentioned before a friend very like her to look at and tiny (And she cut her hair the same and went for similar dresses). She said she had a thing about tall men largely because she felt that she would fill a room all by herself.

But there must surely be another way? There are so many risks - losing the bracelet is only the most obvious one. Still, plotdevicium . . .

This episode is all about them making assumptions, and getting it wrong. So wrong. As Servalan said not long ago, "Never presume anything..."

Exactamente. And also, when he sends someone else they all grizzle.

Hello, Tyce. You've just missed Servalan bidding an outrageous sum of money for Avon and enjoying herself hugely.

I don't mind them at all. I don't want them running on my face but we care for all our bugs and critters. Got the cutest young Blue Tongue lizard. It was curled up in the dappled sun/shade asleep this afternoon. Squee!

Grin Tell us something we didn't know.

What I don't get is why our clever Avon, with his well-developed BS detector, doesn't get the message when Piri does all the exposition.

Cancer is very impressive.

Yes, 'Cancer' you're really stupid!

But we'll get a good episode out of Tarrant being a prat in a couple of weeks. Be patient.

He is distracted by despising Tarrant for being a prat?

Orb spiders, which are always slinging their hooks across the driveway or where you're planning to walk, get their webs carefully returned to where they were if we damage them. Couple of suckers at our address.
