Blake's 7: The Mutoid Podcast

• 33: Children of Auron

  Servalan's feeling broody so everyone else must suffer for her little children. Wiping out Cally's race is, of course, a small price to pay for these fascist foetuses and, call it nesting instinct if you like, she also has her eyes on the Liberator. But she reckons without uncommunicative Aurons, subordinate infighting and Orac the apothecary. But what the heck is Michael Troughton wearing and why? Can Servalan's dress tell the future? Who filled the Liberator flight-deck with nitrous oxide? And did Jim and Martin feel paternal towards the episode or was it like babysitting the Bash Street Kids? Listen to find out! This episode can also be found at iTunes/Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Audible, Player FM, Pocket Casts, Podvine, Castbox and all other pod apps (as far as we know).

• 32: City at the Edge of the World

  So Vila finally gets his moment in the (CSO) sun. And all he has to do to earn it is open an unopenable door and avoid being killed by a Six-maniac. But at least he almost gets the girl. How do you subtly hint to a new acquaintance that they may have personal hygiene issues? What are the practical difficulties posed by invisible legs? Can you really raise kids and cattle on an asteroid? And did Jim and Martin find the episode full of Homeworld charm or was it like crawling through slime? Listen to find out!

• 31: The Harvest of Kairos

  It's time for a spot of piracy for our intrepid and newly-aimless adventurers. And where better to do that than on a deadly planet infested with enormous zeppelin-arsed insects? But who died and made Tarrant Liberator captain? Is Jarvik a complete arse (or merely a buttock)? As Servalan is unqualified to weep at the death of a friend, does laughing at the demise of an enemy count? And did the episode yield riches for Jim and Martin, or was it just some obsolete space junk? Listen to find out! This episode can also be found at iTunes/Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Audible, Player FM, Pocket Casts, Podvine, Castbox and all other pod apps (as far as we know).

And, as promised within the podcast, the Clive James hatchet job and TV spot with Jacqueline Pearce. https://archive.clivejames.com/essays/facedog.htm https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LvxBCAdMoD0

• 30: Dawn of the Gods

  Newly self-appointed leader, Tarrant, is powerless to stop the Liberator and crew from being sucked into a black hole. Therein they find a place which could be none more black, inhabited by a regency fop, a wild west bank clerk and a wee man with cranial varicose veins. When will Avon teleport Tarrant into deep space? When it comes to equations, who is the sharpest graphite writing stick in the box? Will Cally swipe left (or burst out laughing) when she sees the Thaarn? And will Jim and Martin place the episode up among the gods or will it dawn on them that it's a black hole of quality? Listen to find out! This episode can also be found at iTunes/Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Audible, Player FM, Pocket Casts, Podvine, Castbox and all other podcatchers (as far as we know).

And, as promised within the podcast, the DreamWatch James Follett interview... Our thanks to Marilyn Burge for supplying this.

• 29: Volcano

  Newbies Tarrant and Dayna are on a mission on behalf of their crew to find someone that only they have never met. And to maybe find a suitable place to settle down and electroshock kids. However, Servalan and Not-Travis have other plans, which involve a posh tramp, a dead dog and a parsnip with a face. Is it medieval re-enactment week on the Liberator? Does Michael Gough have smelly hands? What is the secret of the Yorkshire Moors mincers? And did Volcano light a fire inside Jim and Martin or is their love for the episode extinct? Listen to find out! This episode can also be found at iTunes/Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Audible, Player FM, Pocket Casts, Podvine, Castbox and all other podcatchers (as far as we know).
