Servalen & Travis - Blake 7
I suppose I am showing my age but two of my favourite SF baddies are President of the Federation Servalan (Killer Queen, Dynamite with a Laser Beam) and her psychotic lieutenant, Travis. Servalan is deposed and resurfaces as Commissioner Sleer. Travis is killed by Avon, the most intriguing character in Blake's 7.
Blake 7 was devised by Terry Nation, who also invented the Daleks, and it has the finest ending ever of an SF TV Programme.

Couldn't agree more, great series, fantastic ending, thanks for the reminder! These are nice, do you mind if I ask where they're from?

ReplyDeleteThey are from Crooked Dice, the 7TV people. You can also get the Prisoner, Clockwork Orange, Capt Scarlet, Dr Who etc.

Beautiful work there, on some great figures - arguably one of the finest Sci-Fi shows to grace any screen!
