Blake and Jenna teleport to a planet to evacuate Avalon, a well-known resistance leader who they discover was captured by the Federation. The Liberator's crew then launch a rescue mission unaware of Space Commander Travis' plan using Avalon as bait.
"Project Avalon" is a good if predictable episode of Blake's 7. The plot is certainly not original and lacks the interesting spin that many Blake's 7 stories put on familiar ideas and concepts. I am always impressed with how well-realized the ships and planets are on this series when considering the budget. After the great and exciting "Duel", "Project Avalon" feels like a compulsory, uninspired dragging out of the Travis storyline.
