UK Rewatch - C10 Ultraworld (Tuesday, September 1st)
trevor travis
The episode: Colin Ten – Ultraworld (Carry On Being Blue)
The date: Tuesday, September 1st, 2026
The time: 7.45pm UK time

In which Cally is taken over by a glitterball; the Ultra massage Avon’s ego by greatly increasing the amount of money he was trying to nick; we find out that Dayna really is a rather dangerous young lady as she makes sure that the Human Bonding Ceremony goes with a bang; and Vila forgets to tell Orac the riddle about the Thief From Nantucket.

Footnote: In 1991, the Orb released an album called “The Orb's Adventures Beyond the Ultraworld” on the final track is called "A Huge Ever Growing Pulsating Brain That Rules from the Centre of the Ultraworld". I think, possibly, that may be connected to this episode!

Episode in a word: Zombies.
Characters to cheer: The Vila and Orac double act – with a load of corny riddles and jokes, they defeat the Core and make it spew out a load of green slime.
Character to boo: Tarrant, for putting Avon and Cally’s brains back in the right way around, and therefore spoiling our fun.
Is Soolin looking lovely this week: Yes.
Recognisable Face: Ian Barritt (one of the Ultra) played Professor Peach in the Doctor Who serial “The Unicorn And The Wasp” from 2008 – that’s the one about Agatha Christie. At the start of the episode, he’s the first murder victim. He’s killed in the library with the lead piping.
Best exchange: AVON: You really believe in taking risks, don't you?” TARRANT: “Calculated ones.” AVON: “Calculated on what? Your fingers?”

Blake's 7 will return in… Carry On Space KFC
Vote Og.

It’s 19:45 Earth Standard Time, and here is the news from Earth Dome One. I am your in-studio reporter, Lee R. Pantsonfire.

Our top story tonight, Well, apparently we have several top stories tonight. Let’s get to them.

Water on the brain can be cured with a tap on the head.

In other news, a young lady named Perkins has pickled her internal workings with gherkins.

And we still have no answer on the productivity of woodchucks.

Wait… there seems to be something wrong with my teleprompter, yes, our
remote link is being subjected to a great deal of outside interference from a distant sector of space.

We’ll take a break while we sort the issue. In lieu of our 20:00 movie, here are excerpts from a recent performance by Blue Man Group.

Avon, remember when you used to criticize Blake for being overly manipulative and gambling with the lives of the crew?

Let's all go to sleep while we approach the big shiny thing in space that we can't understand.

Del Grant would slap Avon at this point....

They get an emergency message from Cally. Don't they remember Gan did the same thing in another episode? They don't seem to learn. Or perhaps the writers don't seem to learn.
