Show Notes
Long before Blurays, DVD's and Video's there were books. And before the first episode of Blake's 7 had even shown the novelisation of the first four episode had been published. Trevor Hoyle discussed with Terry Nation what the books should contain and how the character were developing. Trevor would go on to novelise a further eight stories in two more books. But he also had a hugely succesful career as an author with his original novels. Here we discuss his Blake's 7 books and other work. In Season C we will discuss his script for the show "Ultraworld"

In this excerpt from the full interview with Carinthia West, she speaks about her experience on #Blakes7 T.P. McKenna, Pennant Roberts, Jan Chappell, the stunt that went wrong and much more.For the full interview of Carinthia's fascinating life go to the interviews.
Carinthia West is one of those rare figures who has managed to live several creative lives at once — actress, model, photographer, writer and confidante to some of the biggest names of the 1970s and 80s. Blake’s 7 fans will know her as Tyce, the determined, confident minder of President Sarkoff in “Bounty,” who ends up being his daughter. But her story stretches far beyond that single credit. Over the years she’s captured candid, behind‑the‑scenes moments of rock legends, actors, and cultural icons, and today she continues to share that extraordinary archive through acclaimed photo exhibitions around the world.
Todd, Dwayne, Chris and Philip give a hot take on the #Blake's7 Series 3 Bluray promo. There is a lot to look forward to in this set. But also, what is missing?
