YMMV / Blakes Seven S 4 E 11 Orbit

• Moral Event Horizon: Avon and Vila have tricked a Mad Scientist out of a powerful new weapon with a fake Orac only to find that he's somehow weighed down their shuttle so it can't achieve escape velocity. Our heroes are busy stripping everything out of the shuttle to lose weight (including the powerful new weapon), when Orac announces they only need to lose 70 more kilos. When asked by Avon (who believes Vila is out of earshot) what weighs 70 kilos, Orac tells him that "Vila weighs 73 kilos". Avon gets his gun and goes looking for Vila (who's gone into hiding!). Avon then finds the 'speck of Neutron Material' embedded in perspex that is really weighing down the shuttle, but can't persuade Vila to help him push it out of the ship because Vila thinks Avon is still trying to kill him. He manages to do it by himself, manfully. Opinion is divided on whether Avon would have actually killed Vila if it had come to it.
• Narm: While Pinder's being aged into a decrepit skeleton after being exposed to Hoffal's radiation is suitably nasty, Egrorian ends up with a comically oversized grey beard that makes the scene unwittingly reminiscent of the "When I'm Sixty-Four" sequence from Yellow Submarine.
• Signature Scene: Orac informing Avon that Vila weighs just the right amount of weight the shuttle needs to lose, followed Avon stalking Vila, gun in hand, while Vila hides away in pure terror, is one of the most iconic sequences in all of Blake's 7.
