Blake’s 7: Rebel by Ben Aaronovitch 

Featuring Derek Riddell, Colin Salmon and Daniela Nardini as Blake, Avon and Servalan respectively, this new take on Blake’s 7 is “fresh and energetic and has a personality all of its own” (Sci-Fi Now) and “morally complex, deeply noir, and sounding slicker than ever” (SFF Audio).  

In the third century of the second calendar, the galactic Federation, once a beacon of democracy and peace, has become a corrupt tyranny. Freedom and Justice are things of the past. 

Roj Blake stood up for ordinary people. When the establishment tried intimidation, he laughed in their faces; when they tried to crush him, he fought back. They tried to brainwash him into obedience, but he broke their conditioning. Finally, they framed him for crimes he didn't commit and sentenced him to permanent exile on the notorious prison planet of Cygnus Alpha. 

The Federation thinks it has seen the last of Roj Blake... The Federation will wish it had. 

For a limited time, Big Finish listeners can also get 50% OFF the complete Blake's 7: A Rebellion Reborn as a collector’s edition CD box set or download.  

Blake's 7: A Rebellion Reborn brings together the epic trilogy, Rebel, Traitor and Liberator with the complete collection of Blake's 7: The Early Years audio adventures, revealing the lives of the Liberator crew be before they encountered the freedom fighter Roj Blake.  

This box set boasts performances by Benedict Cumberbatch, Keeley Hawes, Craig Kelly, Frances Barber, Tracy-Ann Oberman, and Natalie Walter among others, plus guest appearances from the TV series’ original regulars, Jan Chappell and Michael Keating.  

All the above offers end at 23:59 on 27 September 2020.
