RIP Jacqueline Pearce.

Saddened to hear that Jacqueline Pearce, famous for her role as Blake's 7's alluring bad girl Servalan, has died at the age of 73.

Re: RIP Jacqueline Pearce

She was responsible for my ultra short hair style all those years ago and, although I have had various styles over the years, I keep going back to that style and have it at the moment. Mind it is coloured red now but I think she would appreciate my need to grow old in my own style.....disgracefully.

RIP you talented lady, I hope you are enjoying the odd glass of champagne.

Unhappy Re: RIP Jacqueline Pearce

There's seldom been a more elegant, poised villain of either gender in SF, yet not stereotypical; Servalan was anything but two-dimensional, as shown in the B7 episodes Children Of Auron and Sand, in which she showed the very human side she had.

In others, of course, she was ruthlessly practical, as in The Harvest Of Kairos:

Shad: Get hold of Command.
Dastor (on screen): Command. Yes?
Shad: It's the harvest, sir. It's been good. Very good.
Dastor (on screen): And?
Shad: Well, we're loaded and ready for lift-off, but, er...
Dastor(on screen): Well, hurry up, man, what is it you have to say?
Shad: Well, the cargo exceeds our flight tolerance.
Dastor(on screen): Well, what does that mean?
Servalan (on screen): Thank you, Dastor. I'll deal with this. How much excess Kairopan is there, Shad?
Shad: Weight eighty-four units, madam.
Servalan (on screen): And are all the labourers aboard?
Shad: No, madam. Do I have your permission to abandon the excess cargo, (Space Command; on screen) or shall I have it destroyed?
Servalan (without a flicker of expression): Neither. You will abandon the surplus labourers.
Shad(on screen): Yes, madam.

[Launch platform]

Guard: Instructions from the Captain. You are to wait for the next shuttle.
Carlon: But there isn't another.
Guard: One will be sent for you tomorrow.
Carlon: But today's the last day. He knows that and you know that.
Guard: Orders are orders. You know that. (He shoots a worker climbing over the fence)
Carlon: But nobody lives after the last day! (which Servalan knows, of course)
Guard: Then you'll die, won't you?

(Mind you, in a touch of poetic justice, the guard ended up left behind, too...!)

A classic villain, immaculately played. I'll make a point of mentioning Jacqueline's passing (if no-one else does) and raise a glass to her at Redemption '19, in January.

Re: RIP Jacqueline Pearce

Nobody ever escapes from Kairos. Except our heroes, who take mere minutes to engineer their escape in an Apollo ascent module.
