"Rather a frightening thought, isn't it?" #PaulDarrow

We may have run out of #Blakes7 episodes but it's nice to see our B7 GIFs helping the world express itself with clarity, via the GIF search here on Bluesky and the other place.

Join us as we look back at the time Blake’s 7 was unexpectedly saved from death only to be irrevocably killed again (they really mean it this time) in our Series D Retrospective. maximumpowerpodcast.com/63/

Finish Big had the best time recording an episode with @retrobrendo.bsky.social for @maximumpowerpodcast.com looking at four diverse and thrilling (maybe one less so) Blakes’ 7 audios!

This episode, Space Commander Brendan is joined by Councillor Joe Ford and Governor Mark Rawlins to examine further evidence of rebel activity, provided by dissident audio production house Big Finish. Listen carefully. #Blakes7 maximumpowerpodcast.com

Remembering Blake's Junction 7. So brilliantly observed, performed and directed. Completely bonkers, absolutely amazing. Tudders coming back to voice Orac too! ❤️ youtube.com/watch?v=9Euk...

…And thousands of miles away on the other side of the planet, the Australian podcast contingent drop into one of those holes in the ground from which everyone, eventually, fails to emerge, in search of several hot takes on the final episode of Blakes 7. #Blakes7 maximumpowerpodcast.com/61/

Nearly made it to another weekend... maximumpowerpodcast.com/60 #Blakes7

What Servalan mood are you in today?

yes thank you I did get the notifications

In the final episode of this series of Blake's 7, the crew make a completely non-ominous visit to the planet Gauda Prime in search of an old friend, a meeting which will inevitably be heartwarming and memorable for some of the people involved. #Blakes7 maximumpowerpodcast.com/60/

I’ve now seen all of Blake’s 7! I can’t think of a better way to be introduced to this great series than being guided by my brilliant, insightful, witty & knowledgeable fellow Maximum Podcasters.

Darrow teaches us: Why merely deliver a line of dialogue, when your could put half of it behind the bins and leave the other half with a neighbour? maximumpowerpodcast.com/59 #Blakes7

Avon thinks he's found the inspiration for this week's #Blakes7 @maximumpowerpodcast.com ... will the panel just want to be free too? maximumpowerpodcast.com/59

This week, Avon's conference of non-aligned planetary leaders is about as successful as you've probably come to expect. #Blakes7 #Warlord maximumpowerpodcast.com/59/

The episode is magnificent but this moment is all the greater for being a Series D story: you’ve known the characters all that time, seen what they’ve been through together, and watched the gradual emergence of Series D Avon - I hoped he wouldn’t but never doubted he *could* do it. Wonderful horror.

Terminal gloop.

Very happy #PancakeDay to all who celebrate! What's your favourite Space Topping?

Egrorian there, representing all the rest of us.

"Its just a box of flashing lights!" Orbit, one of the pivotal last few episodes of #Blakes7 given a glorious review here. There's really no going back to normal after this one as Avon's character ark goes down and down.

Is Orbit the episode which the entire existence of Blake’s 7 was working its way towards all along? Well, yes, of course it was. Hear why, below!

Paul Darrow is famous for larger than life moments but as the penny drops about what Avon may have to do to survive in Orbit, you can see the whole decision play out across his face in seconds. maximumpowerpodcast.com/57 #Blakes7

This week, we finally meet someone whose breathless adoration of Servalan nearly rivals our own. #Blakes7 maximumpowerpodcast.com/58/

Broke: listening to the News Agents talk about that awful man conquering the world. Woke: listening to @maximumpowerpodcast.com discuss Servalan's frocks as she conquers the universe.

That feeling when you Like one of your own posts maximumpowerpodcast.com/57 #Blakes7

It's Friday! What's the worst that could happen? maximumpowerpodcast.com/57 #Blakes7

The heat is on...

This week, a light-hearted episode of Blake’s 7, with some clever gags, a couple of heists, a number of lucky escapes, quite a lot of drug use, and even a happy ending (but not for the crew of the Scorpio, obviously). It’s Gold. #Blakes7 maximumpowerpodcast.com/57

It's Sand! Which, like Tarrant this week, gets everywhere, as he discovers that even after fixing the food machine for her, Servalan will still have him for breakfast. #Blakes7 maximumpowerpodcast.com/56

Sleep tight, rebels and feds, there's an episode about to drop that will make you wary of any sleepy sand in the corners your eyes...

We love our #Blakes7 Maximum Power listeners so much that if you were the Supreme Commanders next door... maximumpowerpodcast.com

Raising a toast to the RADA-est rebel of them all!

The absolute gent #MichaelEBriant was very generous with his time to talk Blake's 7, and his nautical plans, back in 2022 open.spotify.com/episode/3uiv...

The unmade #Blakes7 board game from Strawberry Fayre. One of the many licences that were issued by the BBC before the show aired. This is my interpretation of it. Would love to sit down one day and make it real! I did this for @cultedge.bsky.social's second unofficial Blakes7 annual.😉

This week, we sneak aboard an orbital station somewhere, encountering a series of increasingly lethal versions of Flappy Bird, in the hope of finding out what the hell happens at the end of this episode. #Blakes7 #Games maximumpowerpodcast.com/55

We're working on hacking the phone networks to make Betty Marsden's laugh the new standard message alert...

Approaching *that* point with certain Teams calls? maximumpowerpodcast.com/54 #Blakes7

This week on Maximum Power, we're being hunted through TC1 by the man who came top of his class at RADA in Glowering and Other Menacing Facial Expressions. Jon us as we discuss Assassin. maximumpowerpodcast.com/54/

Bit of an over-reaction to the space gravy running out if I'm honest. maximumpowerpodcast.com/53 #Blakes7

You have to use a desktop browser to post GIFs you've downloaded onto Bluesky, but it's worth it when you want to REALLY express yourself.
