Rating:

- An episode about a murderous robot Avalon / An episode about Gan going crazy
1) Avalon is a female who seems to be friendly, but actually turns out to be a murderous robot.
2) Gan is having a brain disorder (breakdown).
Both of the episodes are quite entertaining, although a bit scary.

- The B7 universe further fleshed out
Volume 5 of the "Blake's 7" video series contains two more episodes of this classic British sci-fi TV series. These two episodes continue the interplanetary saga of Blake, the rebel leader who, together with a crew of convicts and outcasts, wages an unrelenting war against the tyrannical Federation.

In "Project Avalon," Federation officer Travis plots to use another rebel leader as a lure in order to capture Blake. This episode contains a good sci-fi plot device. In the next episode, "Breakdown," Blake's crewman Gan suffers a devastating medical emergency when his brain implant malfunctions. Blake seeks medical aid from a neutral research station. This episode offers a fascinating window into the politics and personal conflicts caused by the Federation's dominance of so many worlds. ... Read More

Rating:

- "One of the many faces of neutrality."
Finally, two enjoyable Blake's 7 episodes running consecutively - meaning they are both on the same tape! "Project Avalon" and "Breakdown" are among the highlights of the series' first season - both are taut, suspenseful stories which plots that progress and develop. "Project Avalon" continues Blake's Robin Hood style quest against the Federation; this time he is coming to the aid of another high profile freedom fighter, Avalon. But she has been captured by Travis, and the rescue attempt begins. The fact that viewers have the foreknowledge that Travis is setting a trap for Blake, but are unaware of its exact nature, adds to the tension. While Stephen Greif's performance of Blake's nemesis is good, and his character firmly established, it is at this point evident he is the central enemy - he will ... Read More

Rating:

- Two excellent first season episodes, esp. Project Avalon
"Avalon" is one of the first season's best episodes. Excellent plot, well-executed. "Breakdown" is also very good and features Gan. Plus, Avon makes his first attempt to leave Blake and crew behind. Well done. END
