Memorable Series Quotes

Blakes 7 is a Science Fiction television series created by Terry Nation and shown by the BBC. It started in 1978 and ran until 1981 giving us four series and a very memorable finale - which to this day is still the topic of conversation between fans of the series. A rumoured remake is in development by Sky TV in the UK.

Well here (hopefully) is something that I hope <!--emo&:huh:-->[img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/huh.gif[/img]<!--endemo--> will be a fun thing for all you Blakes Seven fans out there to think about, suggest and discuss. Over those fifty-two episodes spread over four years there have been many memorable lines uttered by the cast which stick in the memories of viewers. Some of the best ones probably come from either Servalan or Avon, the bad might come from Travis or any guest star (like perhaps Coser (?Weapon?) and those which make us truly groan might come from Villa (e.g. joke telling in ?Ultraworld?).

Just to give you an idea of how this could work here?s an example:-

During the Season Three second episode ?Powerplay?, Avon manages to override the controls of the lock of the Liberator crew room into which he and Dayna have been put. As they quickly rush out into the corridor towards the seated guard they are surprised when he keels over, a knife firmly embedded in his back. To this, inexpiably Dayna says to Avon on this discovery ?Maybe he was cleaning it and it went off?. <!--emo&:blink:-->[img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/blink.gif[/img]<!--endemo--> <!--emo&:huh:-->[img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/huh.gif[/img]<!--endemo-->

In my opinion I think this is probably the worst ?groan-worthy? line (unless you know different).

Now I personally don?t like football however to use a rather apt metaphor here?s ?an open goal opportunity?, how many of you boys and girls want to ?get up to the penalty spot and kick a memorable quote through the net?? It?s over to you!

Thought I'd throw in another one 'into the pot' as it were.

This one's definitely a good one.

In 'Aftermath' we have that classic scene where Servalan is trying to coerce Avon to her side. The conversation ends after the kiss between these characters with Avon grabbing Servalan by the throat and throwing her to the ground with the classic line 'Imagination my only limit! I'd be dead in a week!'

It really doesn't get much better than that, don't you think

"Well now," - when it comes to quotes, dear old "AVON" has some of the most memorable ones in the series.

"You look so beautiful when you're angry!" - ("SARCOPHAGUS")

"Have you betrayed US? Have you betrayed ME?" - ("BLAKE")

"Logic says we're dead!" - ("DUEL")

"I have never understood why it should be necessary to become irrational in order to prove that you care, or, indeed, why it should be necessary to prove it at all." - ("DUEL")

"That's the trouble with heroics. They seldom run to schedule." - ("SEEK - LOCATE - DESTROY")

"I have never taken things on trust. I see no reason to make an exception in the case of a mysterious warning of danger." - ("BREAKDOWN")

"Executions are always in cold blood." ("RUMOURS OF DEATH")

"Trust is only dangerous when you have to rely on it." - ("RUMOURS OF DEATH")

"Of all the things I have known myself to be, I never recognized the fool." ("RUMOURS OF DEATH")
"Have you betrayed US?" - "Have you betrayed ME?"
