    I think 9 might be "Red Dwarf" but I'm not certain. I have no idea about #8 but the model work looks British. I'm going to guess "Blake's 7".

    Thanks!

  3. Wow...the little white ship on #12 looks so familiar to me but I just can't place it (I meant 12 when I guessed Red Dwarf rather than 9, which is obviously Galactica).

    Again, it looks British but I'm just not familiar with late 1970's British TV to be able to identify it (though Doctor Who would be a good guess).
