That was very good. Mwah ha ha...you're one of us now! "You're not sulking, I hope?"

Several years late and way over the budget doesn't make it necessarily British. It could also be a Berlin airport or a Stuttgart railway station... |

Why didn't they make more of this?

Are we sure we're not still in someone's dream? |

Why didn't they make more of this? Because you didn't watch it! Not knowing it existed is no excuse. And perhaps because many of the actors went on to other things. Like her own series, and Hot Fuzz, and... "You're not sulking, I hope?"

It's a brilliant lampoon on all SF, especially TV SF.

Is anyone else having trouble with the link - it keeps buffering and then taking me back to an advert for a Bentley. |

Went back and restarted it, then jumped forward. Seems OK now.

Hendo's been taken over by an alien! Just like Cally!

OK, I've started it on the other laptop, and it seems to be working OK. The alien has just told them there there's a traitor. I still don't believe this is real. |

Good that Captain Helix did not combine the forces of Peace and Courage... |

Gareth Stannis?! I wonder which series they're referring to now?

I'm loving the detectives - especially Jeffers's half and half. |

Well, let's hope we will never find out that Blake's 7 was actually made by aliens to control one of us... Is there anyone around here buying each and every new edition, I wonder? |

That was a nutty but fun final episode. I think my favourities were Asteroid, Space Javelins and Harvest.

I absolutely love this series. The world building they did is amazing and would also work for a serious series. And the characters work so well. |

So few people even know about Hyperdrive. It's ridiculous, considering how good it is, who the actors are and everything else. Especially the Lalakids.

Don't know that I like that ending - if only they had stopped it at Henderson being a hero! But a very silly final episode. |

Whoever was of charge of publicising it did a shocking job. If someone told me there was a sci-comedy which mixed in Blake's 7 , Red Dwarf and other stuff, and had Miranda Hart in it, I would have watched it in a shot! Vote Og.

I do remember this being on TV, and getting rave reviews in the Guardian, as far as I remember - but it was always on at a time when I was doing something else. |

Sorry I missed this again. Like a repeat of when S2 was on originally...I just kept missing it. Catching up asap. Bit late really.
