thisbluespiritNot everyone in this meme is on the side of the angels... I'm not sure whether this ought to be the case or not, but here's proof that the villains don't always wear black:
Day Nine: Servalan (Jacqueline Pearce)
"There's no one as free as a dead man."
Okay, so she's evil. Or just corrupted by absolute power and also crazy, but she's still awesome. She's risen through Space Command by any means at her disposal to become Supreme Commander; she's not stupid, she doesn't suffer fools gladly - and she knows how to make an entrance. Usually wearing something incredible in white. (And I do mean incredible...)
She's callous, pragmatic and will use anyone or anything that she thinks will be of assistance to her. It's even possible that she wins in the end. But, then, this is Blake's 7, so nothing is that simple.
(And now I flail a bit in my inability to express fully why this particular villain is actually awesome, because that is how awesome she is.)
Servalan: I'm going to be honest with you.
Avon: That should be mildly disconcerting.
Fanvid, which I have to say does count as spoilery (nothing major, but you do get to see her kissing* various people), but does show off her wardrobe...
*kissing: On Blake's 7 this is something you do in order to distract someone/steal things/kill an alien, and not because, you know, you actually like them. Or something.
Day One: Soolin (B7)
Day Two: Dayna Mellanby (B7)
Day Three: Michelle of the Resistance (Allo Allo)
Day Four: Beatrice Eliott (House of Eliott)
Day Five: Captain Kathryn Janeway (ST:V)
Day Six: Maddy Magellan (Jonathan Creek)
Day Seven: Lady Mary Crawley (Downton Abbey)
Day Eight: Ros Myers (Spooks)
Day Nine: Servalan (Jacqueline Pearce)
