Jul 1, 2026 · 1 hr 32 min · 14 segments
**Teleporting in... welcome to Federation Strike: A Journey Through Blake's 7!** Series B of Federation Strike has come to a close, so we are taking stock of all thirteen episodes together, from how…
Yes.
So we had to...
Sounds really weird, doesn't it, to say this, but we have to put up with 13 episodes of Series B, which, to be fair, is not that bad going, is it? When you consider that there are a reasonable amount of TV shows, both...
mainly in the UK over this side of the pond, but you get kind of five or six per series, they do these longer episodes, don't they? Like 45 minutes long, but you get fewer amounts.
So I guess it all evens out, I guess.
But we've had a decent run.
Oh, I sound like I sound negative again.
We've had a decent run, you and I, hey, Blake?
Because I've seen it all, but he sounds like he needs a new fix.
I do.
He needs
another fix of Blake.
I don't know, mate.
We'll get onto this, I'm sure, at some point during this little... wrap-up show but i don't know how much of the extras you've watched because obviously now you've finished the series there's loads of great extras on the on the blu-ray sets um you know i think anyone who's like me as treble and quadruple dipped over the years and bought various vhs releases and then the dvd releases and then the new dvd you know anyone that's done that who was thinking oh i don't know if i need to buy it again um I have to tell you that the extra is a bit like with the Doctor Who Blu-ray sets.
They are so good.
So I don't know how much of that you've dipped into now you've finished the series.
Have you dipped your toe in or are you saving that to bridge the gap till series C comes out?
you nailed it yeah i'm saving i'm saving the the special features yeah that's got um my my weekend after next we're recording this at the end of june we're recording this on the 22nd of june so not this week coming the weekend after i have a very relaxed chilled weekend plan so the heat wave will be over then by that time in the in the uk it should cool down a bit so i'm saving them mate but i know that you've dived into into plenty of them right
Yeah.
Yeah.
I have, but even there is still, uh, some that I haven't watched.
So I think there's a tribute to, uh, David Jackson on there, which I realized today that I haven't got around to watching yet, but I have watched some of them.
I'm able to talk about now, actually, just very briefly that they are superb.
Um, I watched the documentary about Jacqueline Pierce just the other day, which is the one that I've sort of been saving because I really wanted to watch that when I had the house to myself, no one was around to see me crying, um, Because I knew it was going to be an emotional journey.
Yes.
