Blake's 7: The Mutoid Podcast

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!

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!

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?

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?

After escaping Sarran, Avon and Dayna arrive on the Liberator where they find some squabbling squatters. A young Blake-alike, Mr Bronson's evil twin and some less-than-crack troopers are acting like they own the place so our two rebels have to act as a castaway couple. Meanwhile Vila develops a split personality and Cally meets a familiar and impatient in-patient. Will the Terran Federation trespassers find out the truth about Mr & Mrs Chevron? Which of Vila's organs will the Chengans discard? Is Steven Toast one of Tarrant's ancestors? And were Jim and Martin in Powerplay's power or did it choke the life out of them? Listen to find out!
