**Teleporting in... welcome to Federation Strike: A Journey Through Blake's 7!** This week we're on the Series B penultimate episode, *The Keeper* and a strange one to find sitting in that slot. We…
yeah so the penultimate episode episode 12 of series b and it's called the keeper
through star one we could control everything the federation could belong to us i could be president well we could take it in turns You ready to go, Villa? Why not? Now that would be worth the risks we're taking.
Blake is afraid that power would corrupt him.
That sort of power would corrupt anyone.
Which is why the location of Star One has been kept such a secret.
Travis could change all that.
And I doubt if he has your scruples.
Then the very least we can do is make sure he doesn't find the secret.
Okey-dokey, the keeper, the penultimate one.
For some reason, I keep thinking that we've crossed over into the 80s at this point, but we haven't.
Yeah.
Still in the 70s.
So yeah, 27th of March, 1979, written by Alan Pryor, directed by Derek Martinis and overseen by Chris Boucher on script editor duty.
And the synopsis from the old VHS tape is, can the keeper of the secret really be on goth? Docherley certainly thought so, and Blake can't resist the lure of so great a prize, the location of Star One at last, and the chance to destroy the Federation forever.
It's almost in his grasp.
All that power that Avon could ever want is all there waiting.
If they could just find it.
They could just get the intel that they need.
They'll be on their way and this will all be over.
Won't need a series C.
