Happy Gauda Prime Day!

Cripes, lawks, and lumme, it's thirty - count 'em - THIRTY years since things turned out so terribly well for Our Heroes on Gauda Prime!

Happy Gauda Prime Day, folks! May your rebellions make it to the New Year!

PS If my day turns out as planned, I'll be watching "Blake" tonight, starting at 8.10pm, and tweeting as I watch: #GaudaPrimeDay

Thanks for getting the ball rolling. :-)

The bit about "they don't have long to get this wrapped up" was fairly close to what I *was* thinking exactly thirty years earlier... "There's only ten minutes to go, they don't have much time to get out of this one", as near as I can recall.

It has an amazing pace. Begins with the base exploding and then doesn't stop. Everything careers out of control - they're not involved in a scheme, or trying to chase a scientist, or any of the plots of the week. Just coping with event after after, until - blam. Brilliant stuff.
