There's many a slip 'tween grill and plate. Seriously, the 5-second rule rules.

Do you stretch that to 10 seconds in your kitchen?

Looks familiar - B7?
 
Cygnus Bazza
That's a 9 from me.

Basil The Rat 10

Although I think The Germans wins out as my favourite episode.
Vote Og.

Thanks for organising, TrevorT - great job!

Goodnight, M1. What Horizon chores await in your in-tray?

Just finished reviewing 'After the War', actually. https://www.blakes7online.com/article...cle_id=251

Good night, both. Hope OSP gets home safely.

She'll be helping the constabulary with their enquiries by now.

Over and out.

Do you mean 'no - I'm not interested', 'no - you can't do it', 'no - you/we can't do it before bloomin' Hyperdrive', 'no - not without me crisps' or just a trademark Federation blanket 'no'???
 
M1795537OCVirn
I mean, we're watching Hyperdrive next, and... the blanket 'no' thing as well, just because.

Hyperdrive will be good for you all. Quite the antidote to serious SF, and with LOTS of backhanded references to other TV/films/Britishness to spot. Warning - it's a bit 'not PG13' in places, too.

Children of the Stones could come after that, I trust?

It was always going to be Hyperdrive next. I wouldn't dream of double crossing the SUPPREME commander...

Wise words. In fact, to keep M1 totally happy, I say let's watch Hyperdrive twice, then Children of the Stones with the sound turned down.

Agreed.

No way JC's still going to be able to do the high-octane physical comedy that was such a core factor in FT's brilliance. And the chances of pulling together a team of actors with the same level of chemistry is 1 in 10,000, at best.
