Blake's 7 was a science fiction show that ran from '79 to '81. Now I may have been born in '84, but it's still one of the best sci-fi shows ever! Different to almost all others due to the characters and plots being very dark by comparison to things like Star Trek and Stargate. About the only show I've ever seen that comes close is Babylon 5. Now don't get me wrong, I love Stargate and most sci-fi but as Blake's 7 was written by the man who created Doctor Who's Daleks what do you expect! The good guys are criminals, the bad guys are worse and the main cast are at each others throats all the time. Convicted criminals of the state turn and become freedom fighters to try and overthrow the tyrrany of the Terran Federation.
The differences of this sci-fi have captured the imagination of thousands over more than 20 years. If you've never heard of it before and like Sci-Fi then take a look you might find a new show to watch and some stories to read. If you're a fan, then there's some stuff below for you.
WARNING: SPOILER: Get up to speed on Blake's 7 if you're not familiar, need a reminder etc...
