Redemption Auction
by Steve Rogerson 04 Feb '01

04 Feb '01

We've had some additions to the auction list for Redemption since the last Progress Report: An unused head from the Londo doll sold on the station before Sherridan stopped the merchandise Vere Lorrimer's tapes. Both start with prog. identification, a burst of tone (high pitched whine), ep 2 has a clock, ep 1 doesn't, then both go into opening graphics, run the show as transmission and end with closing credits. Strangerers merchandise. Tote bag, made of unbleached cotton with fabric handles and the Strangerers logo on one side. Baseball cap, standard size, unbleached cotton with bright green peak and Strangerers logo, in green, across the front. -- cheers Steve Rogerson http://homepages.poptel.org.uk/steve.rogerson Redemption: The Blake's 7 and Babylon 5 convention 23-25 February 2001, Ashford, Kent http://www.smof.com/redemption

On the subject to why Avon gets to be Lord instead of Blake, Julia wrote: <Not quite, it was so that an actor bearing a strong resemblance to Blake could be off doing some location shooting at a folly..> Oh yes, I'd forgotten this bit. Which complicates the matter of what 'the author' meant consciously or unconsciously even further. So it's more than likely Terry Nation only wrote the 'Blake is God' version of the story; given the way the first season was written (as I understand it) and running late, it's also likely that the re-write giving the role to Avon (while Fearless Leader was stuck up a folly) was done by Chris Boucher. And we can quite easily attribute the fact that, in a tearing hurry, he gave the role to Avon to the simple fact that - as he's said - Avon was the one he liked writing for most. _________________________________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free E-mail from MSN Hotmail at http://www.hotmail.com.

Just a reminder

... to people to please trim the quotes they use in their posts. Several people on the list find long posts difficult or painful to read/scroll through. *We* all read the original too, you don't have to repost the whole thing to make a short comment.

Andrew said - >>Does anyone know if there is any B7 fanfic along the lines of "Groundhog Day", i.e. the same day repeating over and over? Oh, what a great idea. I love time loop stories with a great passion. We must have one. Nay, a whole zine of them.

Mistral said - >>That's not a debate. It's a shouting match. I *like* debates; they grow and develop and make one think new thoughts. Shouting matches are just loud and dull. So, I agree, let's not. Can I just say I've enjoyed this whole to-and-fro, and while I don't really agree with Wendy about this, I think she's stuck to her guns in quite a good humoured way. I kind of thought it might get a bit fraught, but I think it's been OK. I also think there are two different responses getting mixed up, which are 'Deliverance is not sexist' (with reasons etc...), and 'it is ridiculous to say that something is sexist'. And I don't want to confuse them because I don't think the second point is actually ridiculous, though I might disagree about the details of the first.
