The episode: Colin Six - City At The Edge Of The World (Carry On Space Thief) The date: Tuesday, August 6th, 2024 The time: 7.45pm UK time In which Vila is the hero, gets (and loses) the girl and saves the day; Colin Baker booms a lot in a role that was made for him and gets to wear far more many studs than Paul Darrow; and, after Servie’s refit of Space Command HQ last week, we find out what happened to the interiors of her office (the Keezarnians nicked them during the Intergalactic War, and painted them black). Episode in a word: Vila. Character to cheer: There’s only one person it could be. This is the perfect showcase for everyone’s favourite thief, and was apparently written after Michael Keating told Chris Boucher that his young daughter had told him after watching an episode: “Daddy, you’re stupid”. Vila is the totally at the centre of the episode – and is brave when he needs to be and clever when he needs to be, without ever slipping out of character. Character to boo: Tarrant’s a bit of a git to Vila at the start of the episode. I guess we should credit him for later realising that he was wrong. Is Soolin looking lovely this week?: Yes. Recognisable Face: I think we all know Colin Baker (Bayban) was Doctor Who, while Valentine Dyall (Norl) was the Black Guardian in the same show. But let’s go for a less obvious one. Carol Hawkins (Kerril) was in two Carry On films, Carry On Abroad (1972) and Carry On Behind (1975), two of the better Carry On films from the 1970s. Best line: Although there’s also the brilliant “Babe” dialogue, pride of place has to go to Vila’s monologue to two speechless Keezarnians delivered perfectly by the sublime Michael Keating: “Is that where we're going? It's miles away. I mean why couldn't I have teleported closer in?” [pause] “Hey? They say too much walking's bad for you, you know. Makes you go deaf. Look what it's done for you. Listen, sooner or later one of you's going to have to speak to me. Well, speak to me one of you! All right, that's it. No speak, no walk. My feet hurt and I didn't want to come anyway.” [sits down] “[Of] course, I'm totally lost, you realise that. Yes, of course you realize that. I don't suppose you'd consider taking me back to where you met me. No, of course you wouldn't. All right, you've talked me into it.” [gets up and walks] Blake's 7 will return in… Carry On Up The Space Maternity Ward. Vote Og.

Sadly, I will be missing another episode due to my civic pride rearing up and making me go to a public meeting. Enjoy Vila's big moment!

Let's try that again....I've now got the right disc in and the correct episode.... Phew, bit of a panic there...the DVD player wouldn't pick up the disc...but it is okay now. Just have to get me tea, biccies (malted milk) and them salted caramel pringle shaped choccies.... Cold! You don't know the meaning of the word cold!

Hello everyone (that gets that bit over in one) and I hope you are all well. I'm always a little narked that Vila gets loads to say in his story when Gan only had a few lines in his. We didn't see the best of David Jackson!! Anyway, looking forward to Bayban's enormous weapon... "You're not sulking, I hope?"

Hello all! Time to marvel at Colin Baker as Bayban. Hello Paula, yes full ham/OTT/psycho mode Hi OvZ. Love to watch Colin. I always try and have a short conversation with him when he attends our local TARDIS con. I got the 'full Bayban' last time and loved it! Colin loves the character too and pleaded with the head of Big Finish next to us to do more of the discs! I agreed wholeheartedly! Resist the Host

At least you realised beforehand and didn't watch an entire wrong episode of Blackadder, like a certain fellow fan, who won't be named, but tends to wave around a Welsh street sign
