'ICE PLANET ZERO' AT 45: GOODBYE KISSES...


Who says that being a Colonial Warrior doesn't have its advantages! Adept in the art of kissing, Starbuck enjoys some quality goodbye time with Tenna (Britt Ekland and two doubles shot from the side) and other identical clones from her designated batch, in a memorable and humorous finale to the two-parter. 

Starbuck says goodbye as only he knows how...




The clone beauties say goodbye to Starbuck.

You win some, lose some, as they say. "I just lost all three," bemoans Starbuck!


We hope you've enjoyed this special coverage of the originally conceived TV movie version of Gun on Ice Planet Zero...


Fleeing from the Cylon tyranny, the last Battlestar, Galactica, leads a rag-tag fugitive fleet on a lonely quest - a shining planet known as Earth!

'ICE PLANET ZERO' AT 45: THE CLONE COMMUNITY RESTORED!


The battle has been won, the Cylons are no more on Arcta, the pulsar weapon has been totally destroyed, and the reunited Clones are at peace, with their 'Father Creator' in Doctor Ravashol, thrilled to see his children so happy and caring, ready to protect them. 

Our remaining Galactica heroes depart the community and say goodbye to their many friends...


Time for departure. Note the Clone Planner (Liam Sullivan) with Apollo in the only scene that made it to the final two-parter.

The Galactican quest continues as new hopes and friendships are cemented.

'ICE PLANET ZERO' AT 45: CYLON RAMPAGE!


With confirmation that human survivors have now infiltrated the massed clone community located at the Arcta base, the Cylon Centurions go on the rampage in their search, bringing great damage to the Thetas' underground realm. So much so, that our Colonial heroes must soon seek shelter in an even deeper hidden area.

'ICE PLANET ZERO' AT 45: MEETING THE CLONE PLANNERS!

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.


Ser 5-9 and Apollo try to win the co-operation of the planners to see Doctor Ravashol.

Conferring with his colleagues.

The Clone Planners confer on whether Apollo can visit Dr Ravashol. Note on the top far right corner, the painting of Doctor Ravashol - the "Father Creator".

'ICE PLANET ZERO' AT 45: THE CLONE RESISTANCE!


Used to the beautiful but hostile environment of Arcta, the heroic clones Ser 5-9 and Tenna prove superb leaders guiding the Colonial heroes to the Theta Underground dwellings. Their strength of purpose is well realized in these lovely on-set publicity images of Denny Miller and former 'James Bond Girl' Britt Ekland, prestigious casting for the series originally planned second feature-length adventure, The Gun on Ice Planet Zero.
