Loner on the board


No. 3.

Its a thing a do.
So does anyone actually know anything about this?
The trailer looks pretty cool like but meh.

I saw it last night as part of the Flickerfest festival in Sydney. Blakes 7 stop at a motorway roadhouse in their intergalactic Volvo & caravan, where they refuel. The biggest laugh was for Mackenzie Crook as the baddie, because he was in drag.

Is it any good? And did they say anything about other releases?

I saw it at flickerfest in Brisbane this afternoon. It was quite amusing. Seeing Mark Heap together with Mackenzie Crook and Martin Freeman was very cool. I may have missed some of the humour as I never saw the original 'Blake 7' show - nor do I know the slightest detail about it.

If you enjoy the kind of humour that you'd expect from something with this cast (absurdity mixed with deadpan realism) you'll probably enjoy it. The plot is basically as it says on the imdb description - 6 intergalactic travellers (or whatever they were) make a stop at a highway food and drink outlet.
