# I really should watch Blakes 7 again
I imagine I last saw it in 1981 :D

# I rewatched it about ten years ago, maybe a bit less.
Whenever they were bringing all the DVDs out.

It was awesome.

# What I did over the Easter Weekend.
In three and a half days over the Easter weekend, me and my bestest friend watched all 52 episodes on DVD. That took some organisation to make sure we had food and drink in so we didn't have to go out or anything. I was worried my memory played tricks and it would turn out to have been shit.

But you know what? It was great. You have to make allowances for the FX, obviously, but other than that, there were no more than two or three bad episodes, and at least half a dozen really, really good ones, and all the rest were good, watchable stuff.

And yes, there were some non-canon crossover things produced, 'cos the guy who wrote "Robots of Death" also wrote a B7, and crossed some characters and places over from one to the other in a later story. Nothing on the telly though.

And also yes, Terry Nation who created B7 also created the Daleks and suggested them being the Big Bad at the end of season 2, but the BBC said no. The BBC's Awesome Card was therefore revoked, and they weren't recertified as Awesome again until they produced the Dalek/Cyberman smackdown at the end of season 2 of the New Doctor Who.

# I always hoped that the Doctor turned up at the last minute and dragged him into the Tardis.
(The characters have been mentioned as existing in the same universe, and there was once talk of the Daleks being the Big Bad in a series of Blake's 7)

# Torchwood would have been far cooler
with Avon running it.

# "Yes, so we blew up Cardiff."
"But we're safe, and incidentally saved Earth, so be silent."

# Torchwood would have been much cooler
if they'd re done Blakes 7 instead

# You and I are of the same era mate
Remember Travis with his Laseron Destroyer?

# Of course!
I was just thinking about shopping him as either:

a Red Dwarf simulant

a Borg

# I guess Borg would be closer to home
I cried when they all got shot up in the last episode

# I still think that's
one of the finest endings I have ever seen.

But I do like to imagine that Avon somehow made it out alive.
