Most of them are still trying to find their characters, really. Jenna is caught somewhere between piracy and pretty blonde dimbo, Gan doesn't really have a role, Vila is already stereotyped etc etc.Avon is fully Avon, but then, he would be. Jenna's obviously not dim and, thank the gods it's the 70s, 'cos there's no expectation (as in the 90s onwards) that she have her bosoms hanging out. Gan is the wild card. Don't philosophise at me you electronic moron.

This weird noises bit goes on a little too long.

Why is it always Gan who gets to see the beautiful women? |

Hi everyone. Sorry I'm late. I think I'm perhaps in the minority here in finding the two mystic ladies a bit irritating? Hi AA Glad you made it. You're right; I don't mind the ladies at all. I don't go with mystical stuff usually, but I like that they are snappy. Hi. I'm sorry you're not getting your preferred cat, but I'm sure the other one is lovely too. They're both lovely but we had got used to the idea of the first one. The new one will be lovely, of course. Just now have to think of a new name. Pedigree name is L'Trend Meet the Press. I ask you! Called Gossip. Call her Blake? Don't philosophise at me you electronic moron.

New cat is a black silver classic tabby Maine Coon girl. Previous was a blue classic tabby Maine Coon girl. We've had Coonies for years now.

I agree the sound is good, it is what makes this episode worth watching really. Music and effects combine well. (But it think that transition bit is too long, that's all). Come on, Travis - do your job! "You're not sulking, I hope?"

The pursuit ships are surprisingly big in this episode, compared to the Liberator. |

Come on, Travis - do your job! This ep is rather demeaning for Travis. Once we get to Orac it's possible to see how he ends up the paranoid soul of Season B. Don't philosophise at me you electronic moron.

Many years ago a doctor cut off a too-tight plaster using one of Avon's whirry things. Good thing too. Gangrene was only half-an-hour away. Have to say, I'm with Avon in getting some ZZZZZs. Don't philosophise at me you electronic moron.

Avon knows Blake can't hurt Travis. Avon wouldn't either. They know he's not worth the effort.

I have never understood why it should be necessary to become irrational to prove that you care - we'll hold you to that one in season 3, Avon. |
