Its quite an old British sci fi series but it is brilliant.... put aside the dodgy special effects and the low budget and concentrate on the story. From start to finish. It is fantastic. Hopefully someone out there has seen it and can relate to it. Quite old but just a brilliant idea. Characterisations are superb, very very well written :thumbsu:

One of the greatest Sci Fi series ever, and had the best looking Sci Fi ship in The Liberator.

Its a pity the remake/continuation never got off the ground a few years ago.

Watched it religiously when it was on, every friday night i reckon. Was about 10-12 years old. The old man used to by a couple of blocks of chocolate to sit down and watch it with.

Loved it. Cant remember any of the characters now, but remember having a crush on one of the female characters.

I used to watch it when I was very young. Loved it.

Wasn't born when it first aired but have it on DVD and love it. Avon's one of the best characters of all time and the ending was just superb.

I watched the last series when a youngster with my folks, then a few years ago picked up all 4 series on DVD. Shoe-string budget, woeful effects, but great acting and characters.

Avon would be too cruel to name a child, so I've got an eldest born son instead who is not allowed to pick the theme of his 7th birthday :D
