Blake and Travis meet again - this time on a dead planet where they're coerced into fighting mano a mano, seconded by their better halves.

Blake and crew find that twoking doesn't pay when the original owners of the Liberator catch up with them, waving their Space V5 at them. Our heroes fall out with the ship, the Altas fall for Orac's ruse and a gimp falls from a great height.

Blake and crew enter the murky world of the Terra Nostra. Yes, this is Shadow in which Blake is mugged off, Avon is cheesed off and Vila is sucked into a world of hedonism. But did Shadow give Jim and Martin an exhilarating high or a depressing low.

This time our heroes and villains duke it out over a weapon of delayed destruction, IMIPAK. It's a case of Chekhov's Induced Molecular Instability Projector and Key but who will get zapped and who will be told when to die? And did Weapon blow Jim and Martin away or was it like a peashooter off a rhino's back?

In this episode our intrepid but knackered travellers try to find some peace on a remote planet. Needless to say they don't get it but they do get racked, dirty and blow-piped and encounter a puppet, his masters and, worst of all, some white blokes with dreads. But did Jim and Martin find their horizons broadened or was it all too much like hard work?

And then there were 6. No spoilers here but a big character who was a bit limited and prone to the odd Breakdown has gone the way of his "woman". But whose fault was it? Who is Ronald Travis? What's that on Servalan's head (and dress come to that)? And did Jim and Martin thrive on Pressure Point or did they crack?

It's time for Servalan to wash that man right out of her short hair but will Travis go quietly? Or will he get all shouty in a courtroom. [You've probably guessed which.] Meanwhile, Blake is down and unsafe on a lively planet with a friendly infestation and Avon is safely up in space, monitoring proceedings with amusement/concern*. [*Delete as applicable] But did Jim and Martin find oneness with the episode or was it all a bit of a trial? Listen to find out!

With friends like Tynus, does Avon really need any enemies? But the entomological artist can be of use to our unemotional anti-hero as those pesky Federation codes won't crack themselves. Throw in a over-lively cadaver, an ancient virus and some outrageous outfits and our regulars are struggling to stay alive and keep a straight face. But did Jim and Martin find this episode to be all killer and no filler or was it flogging a Trojan horse. Listen to find out!
