firstly I do like the costumes in this episode. Vila's tie front pirate shirt is lovely, Cally looks less painfully thin in her suedette (or towelling?) blue, and Tarrant's studded top is fab. Not SO sure about Dayna's see through jacket. Is Vila trying to look more like pirate captain Del and less like Avon? I think so!
I'm afraid after a May Boosh fest Obsidian makes me think of the goth Obsidian Blackbird McNight so I tittered every time they said it. oops.
I also smiled at Vila frequently not noticing how pretty Dayna is.
Servalan is getting painted broader as the weeks go by. Practically Servalan de Ville.
Once again you'd wonder why they don't keep guns trained on the teleport bay during transit. After Cygnus Alpha it seemed like a good idea to me!
It's nice writing, giving the new kids running about time on their own so we can get to see their operating style. Avon/Cally/Vila don't have a lot to do.
I'm not sure what the moral is. Pacifism never works?
Vila's tie front pirate shirt is lovely It is one of my favourites! There's something so jaunty about it, it makes me grin just to see it on him.
Servalan is getting painted broader as the weeks go by Sadly, yes. She's even becoming irrational, classic super-villain style. First she wants to capture the Liberator, don't bother about the planet. Then she lets the Liberator go, for the moment, because the important thing is that neither of them got the planet. Then she doesn't want it destroyed... No, wait! She wants it COMPLETELY destroyed. Madame President, WOULD YOU PLEASE MAKE UP YOUR MIND.
