More random Gally photos

A rare moment of calm in the main hallway outside the room for the big panels
The Yips beamed down again to investigate


As well as the Meeping Angels, a Gallifrey One tradition based on the noise made by Beaker the Muppet, although this year they were handing out "Obey the Meep" ribbons



My friend Mab from LI Who did 2 great Cally cosplays from Blake's 7 and kept finding other B7 cosplayers since some of the actors were here, and pulled out a new Leela cosplay. She only started making costumes a year ago.


One Servalan cosplayer with a lizard-bedecked gown that was onscreen for all of 5 seconds looks stern with an Avon escort, while another in Servalan's fab red dress chats with Brian Croucher (actor for Travis #2) at the bar

Random Sixie, random pink TARDIS

“The New Avengers” 13 (1977)

The 13th episode in production order, and a lacklustre affair it is. After two that were superb - in my opinion - we get a below average one. It's way too slow to start, the premise is pedestrian and the conclusion lacks tension.
It does have a stellar guest cast. Alun Armstrong, Brian Croucher, John Challis, Stephen Moore and Ballard Berkeley are among the familiar faces on display.
It also has lots of action - military action - maybe it actually has too much action? All those big explosions look good on screen but they don't take the place of actual storytelling.
It's the second story in a row where Steed has very little to do. As with last time - in production order - Gambit and Purdey do all the heavy lifting. And a nice job they do, until Gambit goes undercover with an accent.
5/10

The BBC also did a version of Treasure Island in 1977 that had Patrick Troughton as Israel Hands, so in "You don't need to cast these things, the BBC will have done it for you..." (It also features Brian Croucher and David Collings as John Hunter & Blind Pew, with a B7 bonus of the other Travis, Stephen Greif as Job Anderson, was adapted by John Lucarotti and directed by Michael E. Briant.)
Re. Wuthering Heights (in the category of "actually so will ITV"), there's a 1998 version with Peter Davison as Lockwood (the first narrator, an outsider), so there's also that. :-)
Classic Who Casting game:
Treasure Island? (Any character)
Oh I said I would do this and then I never did, did I? (I said I'd recast a character from anything as someone from Classic Who.) It was harder than I thought.
Anyway Treasure Island has a kind-hearted, responsible doctor on the expedition, don't they, so it's got to be Harry Sullivan. He'd suit the costumes, too.
(Wikipedia tells me that Dr. Livesey has in fact been played by Julian Glover, so there's that.)
