| The primary Clone Planner (Liam Sullivan). |
Five Clone Planners, looking like more youthful versions of their 'Father Creator' human originator, run the Theta Colony near the Cylons garrison, of which Ser 5-9 and Apollo visit them so as to get permission to meet Dr. Ravashol, which they deny, resulting in our heroes finding alternate means to see the scientist (not revealed onscreen). The main representative of the Planners then goes to tell the Cylons at the garrison of the Colonials arrival in the village, resulting in their disruptive and violent search beginning (as seen in the two-part version).
A Planner with blue stripes and white hair/beard resembling Ravashol can be seen in the TV version's finale (played by TV series veteran actor Liam Sullivan, who also appeared in the controversial Original
Star Trek episode,
Plato's Stepchildren), but his role in the final two-parter incarnation is pretty much removed, much to the actor's then great frustration and disappointment. The look of the Planners in the TV version of
Gun is also different to the way they are later described in the Glen A. Larson and Robert Thurston novel adaptation of the tale.
