 Day 10: Least favourite episode

Oh Lord. So many to choose from, mostly in series 4, although all of them have some good moments. Probably Moloch (good moment - Vila involuntarily teaming up with Servalan). I know a lot of people hate Animals, but one of the reasons for doing so is a lot less icky when you know that the out-of-universe explanation is that the episode was written for Cally and hastily rewritten for Dayna after Jan Chappell left. So hastily that they didn't take into account the age gap between Dayna and Cally, and thus age gap between "replacement actress for Cally's role" and Justin.

I do recall once back in the Lyst days writing a whole screed on why Animals was Not That bad (tongue in cheek). I may see if I can find it.

Moloch was appalling, I still have to have a think for mine because there are quite a few.........

There are good moments in all the bad episodes (usually for the males), and the Vila and Servalan scenes are fun. She even saves his life a couple of times; I'm sure she was grateful for being saved from the women-hating crimmos.
