Yay!!!

My Blake's 7 DVDs arrived today. They've taken longer because I ordered them off Horizon who arranged to have them signed. I got Michael Keating's signature which I'd ordered--and Gareth Thomas's!

Plus I got a beautiful picture of Vila which I've never seen before, signed "Nicola, Good luck, Michael Keating'. It's a rather sad-looking Vila in 'Rescue' I think, with what looks like a dust-buster.

"Oh, now look. I don't care if we are the Famous Five* now Blake's gone," Vila said. "I'm not bloody dusting the campsite."

* counting Orac as a perspex Timmy

Oooh! That picture is lovely, I haven't seen it before either. Now wait 'til you hear him on the commentary talking about Jenna's boosters:D...

Great picture, I've not seen it before either.
I saw the box set the other day, I was holding it lustfully in the supermarket for 10 minutes before reason (and lack of funds) set in. It mentioned an episode with MK doing a comentary, let me know what it's like...

LOL! I can't wait! Maybe I'll get a chance tomorrow night, along with the RPG and having to watch a film I recorded on the TiVo which Greg wants gone. Too little time. [sigh] I wish I didn't have to work.

Yeah, well, I can't really afford it either, let alone going to the UK. I also bankrupted myself getting my car fixed.

I'll certainly let you know about the commentary. I've already heard about a missing Vila scene which was probably cut because of it being out of character.

Really? A missing scene! Wow, I can't wait for that. My plan is to buy it once I'm back from Dublin at the earliest (depending on how much I spend) or on payday at then end of April.

From what I've heard (haven't seen it yet--I had to go out) I'm glad they cut the scene. It isn't the Vila we know and love.

I agree it's probably "Rescue" -- I think the 'dust-buster' was the fancy electronic binoculars (monocular?) they were using to spy the landscape with.

And I can't affort to buy the DVDs yet because I am going to New Zealand. And missing you by that much, I expect. :-(

The strange thing about is that he is acting all Vila in it *even* if he shoots a guard or two. IMHO anyway--he's panicking and making faces. But yeah, shooting guards is very OOC...

Didn't stop them showing Orbit....

Ah, thanks! I think you're right.

Hell, he even squeezes his eyes shut in 'Games' and he was uses a stun clip. Well, it's the only explanation for why he picks off the last one when they're no threat to him, and the trooper not being there later--practice. Maybe Soolin thought he needed it.
