They're based on an old Earth sect of unbelievable violence. Oh, football fans. . .  Cockatoo? What Cockatoo? I don't see a Cockatoo! |

Orac's being grumpy as usual. Maybe he's mirroring Avon. Or perhaps it's the other way round.

I am always in awe at the resolution of Scorpio's cameras... Just what I was thinking. Its a bit miraculous! I look behind me, what do I see? A pair of golden wings seem to be attached to me.

wouldn't it have been easier to leave Scorpio in a hangar at cave cliff level and use a man sized lift to enter the base? That wouldn't be nearly as stylish. Good point. Dorian was not a logical or subtle man. He probably had a VHS videotape of Thunderbirds. Vote Og.

Vila's teleport mishaps always remind me of Albert Fitzwilliam Digby. |

I think Soolin was quite impressed at Avon's hearlessness in sending the others into a trap. She's getting the hang of how it works with this crew.

I never understood Avon's plan. Making the main attack with the easy-to-spot spaceship and sending the decoys in with the sneaky teleport?!?! Usually, you would do it the other way round. I hope TT can explain this later. |

You would think the Space Rats would look even more impressive riding huge Harley motorcycles or something similar but I expect the BBC could only afford these dinky little three-wheelers. Very similar to a child's 'Hot Wheel's' trike.

The blooper with Tarrant and Soolin climbing up the hill is the best of this episode. |

Ah, I remember the discussion at a previous rewatch about whether the sign on the door actually says Door Control or Odor Control (maybe we have just discovered the Casper shower room?). |

I don't know if anyone has ever seen the music video of In a Big Country by Big Country. It looks like they were filming 'Avonita vs. the Space Rats'. Brilliant song, silly video. |
