Oh god, let's *not* have the Oxford vs Cambridge flamewar.
No, it wouldn't be kind to Fiona ;P
This does, however, remind me of all the jokes they used to tell at Vila's reform school about the space cadet academy Tarrant attended.
How can you tell a space cadet's been using the computer? All the white out on the screen.
How many members of a space cadet training team does it take to change a lightbulb? The whole team. The teacher holds the bulb. The team picks up the dome and twists it around.
[Side issue: How many Servalan's does it take to change a lightbulb? Only one. She just holds the bulb while the universe revolves around her]
What's the difference between a space cadet and a rat? The rat has hair on its chest.

Good day all,
If there is not a master list of Blake's Seven Lightbulb jokes, then how about we start one?

So :-
How many Space Rats does it take to change a light bulb?
Ans : Five, one to convince the other four to sweat it out.
How many Clone Masters does it take to change a light bulb?
Ans : Sorry, you want the Genetic Engineers down the hall.
How many Pyschostrategists does it take to change a light bulb?
Ans : One, but it has to be the sexiest lightbulb, otherwise the staff can do it.
How many Moondisks does it take to change a lightbulb?
Ans : They can't, but if they think about it for long enough, Cally will do it for them.
Any more B7 light bulb jokes out there?
Catch you later,

Doggone it, I posted an extended "How many B7 characters does it take to change a lightbulb?" joke on FC ages and ages ago, and I was going to repeat it here, but I can't find the darned thing! Don't suppose anybody who's on FC has a copy? (Not that it's probably remotely as amusing as I remember it being...)

Real answer: A psychostrategist does not change the light bulb. But he knows who will, when, why, and what colour socks they'll be wearing at the time.
I can't think of any light bulb jokes, but I do recall asking for suggestions on the old theme of 'How do they do it?' Some possibilities I considered:
Servalan does it in high heels. Tarrant does it at the speed of light. Avon does it in black leather. Vila does it without you even noticing. Soolin doesn't do it, she just shoots you instead. Gan would probably do it if the scriptwriters ever gave him the chance. Travis does it with his finger. Blake does it for a good cause. Orac does it eventually but complains a lot first. Zen does it on the wall. Space Rats do it on the move.
No doubt I've missed a few.
