I used to be with it, but then they changed what `it` was.
Now, what I`m with isn`t it, and what`s `it` seems weird and scary

Blake's 7... the best British sci-fi ever IMHO!

It was ok once the character of Blake left (a welsh actor if I remember)

Avon and Villa were always what made the series great for me. :)

Always remember the episode where Avon wanted to lighten the spaceship of Villa, who hid away, it showed how treacherous and `nasty piece of stuff` Avon was :D  

That`s was what made Blake 7 so good, the interaction of characters, as it made up for the cardboard sets and plastic spaceship models.

That's the episode I most remember from its initial run too, where Avon spends ages trying to convince Villa to come out from hiding because he wants to throw him out of the airlock, and then soon after finds the heavy element and wants Villa to help him but Villa then refuses to believe him!

I`d agree with that being one of the great moments (the Vila scenes in fear were cut down).

For me the personally the best was in series one

Quote:
Vila Restal: Have you thought of another plan?

Kerr Avon: Yes: I`m going to get some sleep.

Vila Restal: How can you sleep with all this happening?

Kerr Avon: With all what happening? Blake is sitting up in a tree; Travis is sitting up in another tree. Unless they`re planning to throw nuts at one another, I don`t see much of a fight developing before it gets light.

Olag Gan: You`re never involved, are you Avon? You ever cared for anyone?

Vila Restal: Except yourself?

Kerr Avon: I have never understood why it should be necessary to become irrational in order to prove that you care, or, indeed, why it should be necessary to prove it... at all.

[Avon exits]

Vila Restal: Was that an insult or did I miss something?

Cally: You missed something.






My outlook on life is positive & carefree, I`m positive that I`m a pessimist & I don`t care what what you think.



Never has so little had to be explained by me to so many so often.
