Blake is a hero to the common people. Here it's 'tradies'.

Blake doing his usual 'I only want you to put me down.' As usual, that won't be all . . . |

I wish we could have had more of Councillor Joban. He'd be a good foil for Servalan. Yes he would. |

If Avon lacked emotion he couldn't feel the guilt he is currently experiencing.

As a teenager, I 'discovered' a Roman Road once. I saw the line of it on a map near a new building development. Went on a Sunday and had a bit of a private 'dig'. nicked a bit of the stone edging. Still have it.

I do find Servalan hiding her drinking in this episode odd. It suggests an alcohol problem, but if so we never see it again. |

Surprising that Servalan didn't recognise him, really. Even with the eye thing. "You're not sulking, I hope?"

Here it's the commercial TV stations (they all belong to the same person) that push men with hammers as the people on whom we should model ourselves. It's to capture viewers. Bum-cracks have almost become fashion statements. Despite the fact that I think Blake is a dangerous zealot. I'd rather stick with him as he has more than one brain cell. Don't philosophise at me you electronic moron.

Can we keep the politics out of this tale of the proletariat, represented by a Man with a Cause, attempting to overthrow the rightful (ie. wealthier, better armed etc) government, who also control all the media outlets?
