If it goes solid in seconds, Jenna, perhaps you should wipe it off your hands before it solidifies. |

You realise if Vila had said “yes I’ll go” we wouldn’t have had Vila for the entire rest of Blake’s 7. What a different show it would have been. |

The London's crew uniforms are a bit boring, though. They’re the same as most of the prisoners, just a different colour. The BBC could obviously only afford 1 dress pattern. LOL |

One and a half episodes in, and we have killed off one prospective rebel already. Blakes 7 setting out its stall. |

Anne - Hyperdrive was BBC comedy SF around 2008 I think. Brilliant stuff. With Miranda Hart as well. I've been banging on about it for ages and TT has finally agreed we can have it as a rewatch! YAY! Starting soon! Sneak preview? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ShWiz...hWizDIa00g "You're not sulking, I hope?"

It's such a pity that the characters of Vila, Gan and Jenna sort of faded once the writers got hold of Avon.

Maybe if Jenna had worn an eyepatch everyone would have remembered she was supposed to be a pirate. Sorry, 'free trader'.

Is it my imagination or did I hear somewhere that when they were shooting the scene in the tunnel they actually had terrible trouble trying to keep the tunnel in shape and with air in it? |

The London is tiny compared to the Liberator - yet a pursuit ship is quite large. Doesn't make sense to me. |

The Liberator appreciated Jenna anyway.

Ha ha ...I've left the dog downstairs, and my kitten is taking the chance to play with the dog's new Christmas toys.

Silly question, why has nobody thought before to go to Cygnus Alpha to “rescue” prisoners. I mean I can just imagine some bady wanting a group of prisoners to help commit crimes. |

Perhaps Brian Blessed is having to contend with constant raids by pirates desperate for crewmembers? |

Yes, great to see our heroes all being so young and naive! Nice to hear from you both. Hope we can do the same next time. Have a great week.
