I see. So the Blu-rays go in production order, but Horror are doing broadcast. Which means the first two you mention are mid-season and the last one is the penultimate episode.

Phil is correct. Testament of Arkadia is the last episode of Year 1. As is common with shows of that era there is not a 'finale' as such but that episode does offer a certain thematic closure within a recurring theme of the year. It's not explicit but it's there if you notice it. Otherwise it is standalone.

I'm up for this future if Valerie Leon is involved.
Although I'm curious as to why on Ultima Thule all the men have to wear great big coats, yet the women seem to be doing Raquel Welch impressions.

Ooooooh! It's only Brian Fucking Blessed! Brian Blessed, actor too. By his s2 appearance he's made the transition to Brian Blessed FORCE OF NATURE

He isn't the only one to play a different character in s2, or indeed the only one in that episode.
On a related note, Horror had Spock's Brain on last night.

Not the worst Trek episode. For me that is a dead tie between Mudd's Women and The Way To Eden.

Space 1999 had The Infernal Machine, which I recall being poor.

Ah, I see. This should be ep 3 because it moves the story to the other side of the universe. I was watching these episodes thinking, there's a lot of peculiar stuff going on pretty close to Earth if the moon has just been knocked out of orbit. I see now most of what I've watched is happening in the far reaches of the universe.

How does Pinwig's Space 1999 watch go? 3 episodes into s2 on Horror and liz still wants to watch it! The Metamorph, Peter Duncan and Helena, John & Alan go to Scotland have all been endured, Should have been One Moment Of Humanity yesterday but no, it was the Scotland time travel pish instead.

I've watched seven or eight I think. Any spare opportunity when I can get in front of the TV by myself for an hour. I'll do one this evening if I can get this decorating finished. Definitely one tomorrow. I'm really enjoying it. It's a great series.

This Episode: Matter of Life and Death
I've derailed from the Horror order and am going by the production order instead. So this ep 2, although Horror did it 13th.

Billions of miles from Jupiter!
"Many things have happened since we broke out of orbit"
No they haven't! This is only episode 2!
There must be a fan order for this that puts everything in the most sensible order of progression.

Ignore that line, everyone agrees this is the second episode.
Whatever happened on Meta has to have occurred between Breakaway and now
