45th Anniversary rewatch - A5 The Web
trevor travis
The episode: Albert Five – The Web (Carry On Again Homicidal Maniac)
The date: Tuesday, January 31st, 2022
The time: 7.45pm UK time

In which we learn, even if you’re a big smarty pants, you still have to do the basics, such as shut the front door, as otherwise anyone could get in your base, such as a band of three-foot tall homicidal maniacs. Oh, and Cally gets taken over for the first time, after being on Libby for around five minutes. This possibly doesn’t bode well for the crew. Especially if she gets taken over by Talkie Toaster and forces them to eat 59 slices of toast each day (obligatory Red Dwarf reference).

Episode in a word: Decimas.
Characters to cheer: The homicidal maniacs, who are so much cuter than the homicidal maniacs from last week’s episode.
Character to boo: That gestalt thingy in the fish tank.
Is Soolin looking lovely this week?: Yes.
Recognisable Face: Deep Roy (Decima) played Mr Sin in the Doctor Who serial The Talons Of Weng-Chiang. He was also EVERY Oompa-Loompa in the revamped Charlie And The Chocolate Factory movie. Oh, and of course in B7, he was also Ze Klute, Moloch and a Link.
Best exchange: BLAKE: “What caused the malfunction? Well?” ZEN: “Involvement is not permitted.” BLAKE: “If the ship's blown up, lofty disinterest won't save you.”

Blake’s 7 will return in… Carry On Space Commander

I like this episode for several reasons.
First it is a good SF story, not just adventures in space. It keeps you enthralled, even if the special effects could be better.
We learn more about our crew and how they interact!!

But you have to admit, even with the low budget, the special effects aren't bad for 1978.

Cally does not like Vila's outfit, or perhaps she's upset that she's wearing this attractive green outfit, and everyone keep staring at Jenna.
