EPISODES 1.01-1.08 It’s 40 years since Tarrant, Soolin, Vila and Dayna were gunned down in slow-mo by Federation troopers, and some of us have been dreaming of a revival of Blake’s 7 ever since. There have been numerous false dawns over the last 15 years, with series for Sky and SyFy failing to get off the ground. Intergalactic takes some of the sting out of that.
You couldn’t wish for a series that’s more Blake’s 7 without actually being Blake’s 7. It follows a crew consisting mostly of female escaped convicts, on the run from Earth authorities in a stolen prison ship. Their weekly objectives feel cosily familiar, with our gang of anti-heroes having to, say, sneak into a base to steal fuel/rescue a comrade, or visit a nightclub-inspace to take part in a high-stakes poker game.
