Z-Cars: Connor (7.76, BBC, 1972)

"You moved, you didn't stop him!"

"Stop who, mate?"

"Well him, Paul!"

"I wasn't there. I'm getting myself organised, mate - I was not there."

"What about me?"

"You look after yourself, you are in trouble, remember: you. I wasn't there!"

I worried in the tags of a previous ep that a potential Valentine return might be a lost episode: I needn't have #Worried because the crew didn't really play the long game on this one and only actually waited two eps to bring him back #And back he is; all sneering dead eyed arrogance and slightly dodgy scouse accent. He's wonderful. This ep tho has two other claims to fame #In that it both introduced a new character in the great Gary Watson as a dynamic young DI out to make changes to the stolid force of #Newtown and because this episode marked the point at which Z Cars abandoned its two parter 25min format to return to the original #And more traditional drama format of self contained 50 minute episodes. Not that the episodes would be entirely self contained of #Course; there's a lot of ongoing plot thoughout these few eps I've seen most of it in the policemens personal lives and career choices.#Ian Cullen has moved back to uniform branch and dialogue suggests that John Slater has either had heart trouble or some kind of run in on #The job which is why he seems to be desk bound (whatever happened was presumably established in earlier missing eps). Watson makes for an #Intriguing fresh face: although he initially seems to be the classic new broom who will breeze in and make all sorts of changes its clear #That he has a lot of respect for longer established coppers like Slater and that he wants to listen to them and to hear their views #The meat of the episode is of course in nailing Valentine and his comeuppance is admittedly quite enjoyable (Tony you rotter)

Friday, January 19: Blaze, “Ten Seconds”

No matter its merits, nothing Blaze Bayley would or could release after his incredibly misguided and ill-fated stint in Iron Maiden would receive a fair shot. Of course, the man did himself no favors by naming his first post-Maiden outfit Blaze, essentially guaranteeing that a sizable audience would automatically greet the band with scorn even if the material was up to snuff. And a good chunk of the songs were indeed up to the task, as Blaze was actually a powerhouse group full of talented players writing and performing robust and aggressive heavy metal that benefited from stout production courtesy of Andy Sneap. Once freed from the stylistic constraints enforced by Steve Harris, and working with songs, riffs and arrangements that were actually suited to his voice, Blaze Bayley was able to shine and deliver consistently entertaining material. But Blaze was doomed from the start, and destined to be the sacrificial lamb on the way to its frontman persisting with an under-the-radar but consistent solo career, leaving stormers like “Ten Seconds” to be appreciated by an unbiased few. To be fair, Blood & Belief’s second track felt like last call for the band even when it was first released- the talented rhythm section of drummer Jeff Singer and bassist Rob Naylor (who co-wrote much of the material on Blaze’s first two records) had already left, and the album betrayed a certain exhaustion and disillusionment on the part of the remaining members. Nonetheless, “Ten Seconds” was vigorous and metallic in a way that far outshone anything on either The X Factor or Virtual XI, and demonstrated that Blaze, both the band and man, had a singular identity and sense of purpose. The song ripped and raged, with John Slater and Steve Wray delivering chomping riffs and Blaze Bayley howling with passion and force, displaying a sense of classic metal songcraft while also keeping in tune with the downtuned crunch of the era. In the end, this first iteration of Blaze Bayley’s post-Maiden life was destined to fail- there was simply too much bad blood, and the return of Bruce Dickinson to the Maiden fold was a clear repudiation of the previous four years. It was just a shame that such a talented crew had to be born with such an albatross around its neck.
