In the seventh episode of Down and Safe, Michael, Liz, Scott, and Amal discuss Duel, the seventh episode of Blake's 7, and manage to get through at least fifteen seconds before they mention Arena, that Star Trek episode with the same plot. This same epic restraint to avoid cheap jokes is, of course, shown in the rest of the episode too.  
This is a useful reminder that this podcast is very probably not safe for work, and may contain mild spoilers for the rest of the Blake's 7 series throughout the episde (we keep major spoilers to a spoiler section of the podcast that we give warning is going to be particularly spoilery.) This episode also contains spoilers for Wacky Races and Babylon 5.

TV & Film

    Ah, hello there!     Yes, we're back. We are terrible people with no sense of time, and a bit rubbish at communication. We throw ourselves at your mercy.     But onwards! Today's episode is the Season Two Warp-Up, brought to you by the generosity of our fine Patreon sponsors. Tis almost two hours of Michael, Liz, Scott, and Amal listing the episodes of Season Two in order! And an excessive amount of time worrying about FIRE. Ahem. If you'd like to get straight to the Blake's 7 stuff, you may want to fast forward to twelve minutes in.     So, here we go, prepare for much swervalans and servalanigans!

Apologies for the occasional crackle in the sound: it's not you, it's us. Regarding the clay/plushie Travises mentioned in the episode, these have been searched for, but I cannot find them. Michael may have imagined it all.
