An entertaining hodge-podge. Of course, there's a bit of Central Asian as well. The set arrangers had fun scouring the BBC vaults. Didn't they just! With this and the cabaret last week, they are really getting to enjoy themselves. Maybe they're using up the full amount of their budget before the end of the series? Like the public service – spend it all before the end of the financial year otherwise you'll get less next time. Spotted… Swat Valley chair. Don't philosophise at me you electronic moron.

What’s with Blake’s ‘good’ when Villa tells him that Jenna is pair bonding with the chief. He almost sounds as if (how shall I put this on a family friendly site) ‘that is something he’d dream about’. LOL To me it sounds as though he is fixated on getting the secret above all else. She's getting close to the chief - so she will get the secret from him - so good. But either it shows a great faith in Jenna's ability to take care of herself, or else it's pretty indifferent to her safety. |

This is interesting, if something happens to Gola and Rod then Blake and Vila will have to fight each other. LOL |

Bother, it's finished. I'll have to do some WORK now. Thank you all for a lovely morning, even if this isn't one of my favourite eps - too much shouting. But worth watching because Servalan was in it. Take care: see you next week. "You're not sulking, I hope?"

I think she wants rid of all the outsiders, so that she can take power herself. If Blake and the others free the old sharl and the fool, they will come back up, but, even if she doesn't know that he's dying, she knows that he will be pretty weak by now, and, as Obsidian says, not able to protect her. She needs to be in the tent, in the heart of things, to establish control - if she goes downstairs, some ambitious second cousin could seize his chance. |

And why isn't Servie with him given that she's was on Goth? I must admit that I am finding it hard to know who knows what at this point! I had always thought that Travis was plotting with the Andromedans for a long time, but, if he doesn't know where Star One is, how does he know that they have infiltrated it? |
