Rewatch Downunder - D7 Assassin, Saturday 12th November

I do like the idea of Servalan eavesdropping - she's really enjoying herself this week.

Unthinkable - Servalan made a mistake! (But it was in the script so she had to).

And a genuine Avon smile to go out on.

I very much like how Servie speaks to various of her minions, and to our male heroes, as if she's the wife. Gives them a nice telling off.

This was great. I have to go. I hope I can come back before the final episode.

Second, and fatal, failure of crab. If she'd only shot him, she would have been so much more successful,

It's definitely a nice touch as 'the utiliser'.

Who did the props for this episode? Surely Mat Irvine would heave made something that worked.


Hmmm, not sure. I like the spacecraft and I like the spider. The only problem with it is that it's not a crab.


The ships are fine. The spider isn't a crab and it isn't believable. But then, neither is Cancer. Maybe they should have picked a different Zodiak sign - Scorpio, for example. Oh, the irony.

It would be excellent if you could MrsB. Let's cross our fingers for next week.

We hope so too. Take care!

That would have worked much better - and led to some nice confusions. (On the other hand, I rather like the idea of Sagittarius . . .)

I like the fake Cancer. How often do you suppose that Piri turned on the dumb female act in the course of her other conquests?

Sorry - seem to have got a bit behind again. On the other hand, I haven't been interrupted by Argos.

That had some nice moments, but too much to spoil it, IMO. But from now on in, there's not a dud episode, and several that are among my favourites. So here's to the home strait!

He doesn't (note how he is addressed by his first name, like a woman). But I was thinking more that of the three snatched from certain death on Cancer's ship, it's the two men who immediately collapse onto the recliners, leaving Soolin propping herself up against the console.

OK, I'd better get something done. The SC never sleeps, as I'm sure Travisina will agree.

Great (if cringe-worthy) episode. Take care of yourselves, everyone. Hope to see you all next time.

I like a lot about it. Vila gets some good quips. Soolin is pretty mean and keen. But, yes, better from now on.

OK. I'm still sitting here in my pyjamas, so I'm going to try to sneak a shower and get dressed before Argos appear. See you al next week, I hope!

Funny how I've developed a great fondness for even the silly bits. Must be a mad, sad B7 fan.

Have a good day MsVirn and a good week, preferably not too wet. I'm in the making zone myself. Eek!

No, it's the silly bits that keep us going through much worse episodes than this one. I mean, I might criticise the crab as a method of assassination, but I'm still watching enthusiastically, amn't I?

Sounds perfect. Good luck with Argos! Have a good week Anne. See you next time for some wonderful Stratford Johns.

And I'm back in my annual Christmas card factory. Just sent out for more glue. Hope it all goes to plan for you.

Thanks Ms Virn. You too. And I understand perfectly about the sending out for more glue.

Missed this comment. Give him my love and tell him that Soolin is looking gorgeous.
