If you can get past the late 70's early 80's kitch, and if you can look past the BBC low budget special effects. The whole series is quality viewing you do have to put certain expectations on hold, but the storey line is first rate, the storey line is consistent. So if you have been disappointed by remakes of old sci fi series or revamps of classic series, this throw back will give you a smile. It has to be said you can watch season 3 as a stand alone as it most certainly takes on a life of its own. It would do you much better to watch the whole thing from the very beginning of season one. with out including any spoilers the characters cant be mentioned accept Avon who gives a better performance with every episode. You love him you hate him you admire him and you despise him but this show would not be with out Avon. There will be Cheese and plenty of it but it never tends to get preachy or soapy so if you are fed up being spoon fed messages or political agenda, sick to death of shaky cam and dark settings for soapy space drama this will be a refeshing change. Also know that in a time when TV stars were always safe and would be back next week simply becasue they are stars of the show. Blakes 7 never followed that mantra no one is safe the main characters are always at risk of being killed off and often are. Unlike other shows they dont come back. The other thing you can count on from the very start is Earth is the bad guys they are not out to save the Galaxy they are out to enslave it, the bad guys like in real life far too often win the day. Worth owning and worth watching more than once for sure that is why I own the whole series start to finish.Read full review
i BOUGHT IT AS A GIFT FOR MY SON AS HE REALLY USED TO BE INTO THIS SERIES WHEN HE WAS ABOUT 10YEARS OLD. HE STILL THINKS IT WAS EXCELLENT AND HAS WATCHED THE DVD SEVERAL TIMES ALREADY. aLSO WHEN I WAS WORKING AS A DEMONSTRATER IN A STORE IN STRATFORD ON AVON, I MET THE FEMALE ACTRESS FROM THIS SERIES WHO WAS CHARMING AND SHE GAVE ME AN AUTOGRAPH FOR MY SON.
This series is very good.No Blake - great.A lot of Servalan, some of the Liberator and better stories. I missed the Liberator by series 4, I thought "Slave" was stupid but still series 3 & 4 are the best.Goody goody Blake is gone and Avon takes over - a much more 3D character. The package is good, the extras are good and if like me you paid £13.50 on eBay you are laughing.HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!
