#Blakes7 Series A, Episode 02 - Space Fall

LEYLAN: Mr. Raiker! This time you went too far. There'll be an official inquiry.
RAIKER: Naturally, Sir. And I'm sure you'll confirm that I was acting with your full authority. There were other officers present who heard you give me permission to do what was necessary.

Not sure if this can be seen if you're not logged into BlueSky, but the Cult Edge crew have just released the latest in their Blake's 7 Production Diary series. Lots and lots and lots of material about actually making the series, with bits of script, production team notes planning the next series and the next few episodes, quotes from cast and crew.

Having seen the books for Series A and B, I've seen a lot of the quotes before, but scattered across different interviews. Here they are, collected into one nice fat book. The real joy is the insight into how the series was made - literally a diary of filming, casting, script writing and revisions. If you are the sort of #Blakes7 fan who likes this sort of thing, this book is for you. 15% discount code for publication day orders. (Not sure how long the code will remain valid, but they do a new promo every so often.)

#Blakes7 Series B, Episode 06 - Trial

VILA: Blake can't complain really.
JENNA: Hardly, since he's not here.
VILA: No, I mean it's not as though we haven't done our share for freedom and all that.
AVON: [Smiles] More than our share.

#Blakes7 Series B, Episode 04 - Horizon

GAN: Not a thing. We're all alone up here.
BLAKE: [V.O.] Make sure we stay that way.
GAN: I'll try not to drop off.
JENNA: Well, that's all right, assuming they haven't got a fix on us from the ground by now.

...and now I'm thinking it maybe time to find a streamer for a rewatch.

Though I'll have to consider carefully whether to ditch that last season. It felt like the writers seriously lost their direction....

#Blakes7 #SciFi

There's a 30 Days of #Blakes7 meme going on, which I'm taking part in on DreamWidth. This has resulted in an entire warren of plot bunnies, some of which have been badly distracting me at work. Now that it is the weekend where I can actually start writing them, or at least bits of them, can I manage to put pen to paper? No, I can not. Not even a sketch for later. It's all vanished, like tears in the rain. Bah humbug. I haven't written fanfic for decades, partly because plot ideas were mostly for things I wanted to talk about via profic. I would quite like to write fanfic. Thanks, migraine amnesia. 🙄

#Blakes7 Series B, Episode 01 - Redemption

BLAKE: What's it register, Vila?
VILA: Maximum. Can we hold together at that speed?
AVON: We won't have to.
VILA: What do you mean?
BLAKE: Running at full power will drain the energy banks in - what?
