Space Fall: A Blake's 7 Podcast
@spacefallb7.bsky.social
We chat about each Blake's 7 episode; what we enjoy, what doesn't quite work, where the influences are, and what cool lines Chris Boucher gave Avon that week!
Yes the Bayben stuff is great!

Thanks Alex!
Some really interesting points and good feedback!
Can totally see how it would land different for you, and yes, this is certainly an episode with a lot of different views and opinions!

Hopefully you enjoyed the chat, though!?

That's a really good point!
But, we would argue that it's not in keeping with the shrewdness and cunning of the character in the past?

I used to question the stupidity of villains, particularly the autocratic or fascistic ones, in classic Who. The past decade has changed my mind on this and I now think that when they are written as stupid it is merely a more accurate portrayal. And Servalan is A+ both wicked and dumb here.

I started my first watch through of Blakes 7 on Dec. 31 with one episode each day (and catching up with the corresponding Spacefall podcast eps). This story I found quite dire and I fully appreciated the effort you two put in to finding some nicer things to say about it!

Thanks! We’ve always said that if we don’t think an episode works it’s important to try to understand why, not just sink the boot in.

Enjoy! Hopefully the early eps don't sound too rough!!

Oh! Interesting!

We’re recording our Terminal episode next…
