Kerr Avon - various stories
Richard Gibson for Kerr Avon
Kerr Avon is a computer expert who joins a team of dissidents on a salvaged alien spaceship. The dissidents are led by the charismatic Roj Blake, who is a damaged revolutionary intent on bringing down the 'Federation' regime. Avon does his level best to snipe at and challenge Blake at every outset, acting as a truthful but self-serving voice of 'reason'.
Avon was played by Paul Darrow in the series, who had a low, rather nasal delivery and was graced with many quips and jibes in his dialog by the writers. A summary of his voice can be found here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7ez8SlJi2rw
I am an amateur audio drama producer and have made many stories for this fandom. There are many more I'd like to make, that are being written now by fans of the series but I need an Avon voice. This delivery doesn't have to be an imitation of Paul Darrow's Avon but it does need to be Avon-esq so the emphasis and manner are important. He was a RADA actor and spoke with good diction and pronunciation.
If you can make this work, there will be many stories to be involved in.

You ... were stereotypically stupid. It's not your fault, it's just who you are. (direct at first and then feigning sympathy)
Yes, one that seems to be about to land about half a mile from this base. Vila, should our uninvited guests survive that landing, they may come and investigate the entrances to this base. Make sure they can't get in. (thoughtful and then ordering)
Then I'll kill you. As I see it, your only chance now is that I get to him, before he gets to you. The choice is yours. (matter of fact, then ironic with a smile) You don't!
