Trivia

Boorva, one of the planet leaders at the conference, was originally costumed with huge wings on his back. But the attachments kept knocking over props and smacking the other actors in the face every time he moved, so Boorva had to be given a wing-ectomy. See more...

Cygnus Alpha (season 1, episode 3)

Mistake Continuity: When Vargas beams up to the Liberator just ahead of Blake, Gan & Vila, he challenges them when they arrive from the other side of the room - by stepping out of the teleport bay. But they're standing in the teleport bay, and Liberator has only one. So exactly where is Vargas standing?

Mistake Continuity: At the end, Blake teleports Vargas, who's wearing a long purple robe, out into space. But the figure we see materializing in space isn't in a robe. It appears to be wearing a spacesuit instead.

Mistake Revealing: Stock footage of the London's launch from Earth is run in reverse when it lands, supposedly 8 months later, on Cygnus Alpha. What are the odds that a remote penal planet will have a launching pad with configurations, lights, buildings and background terrain all completely identical to the launch stage on Earth?

Mistake Revealing: The high priest Vargas is wearing a nice new pair of decidedly 20th century basketball shoes under his robe. We even get a good close-up of them at one point.
