Who Fans, Meet Federation Strike - Our Blake’s 7 Podcast

<p>Hey, Who fans! Something a little different is landing in your feed today. This is the very first episode of <strong>Federation Strike: A Journey Through Blake's 7</strong>, a Blake's 7 podcast hosted by us.</p><p>The show follows lifelong superfan, Adam, and newcomer, Garry, as we work through every episode of the classic BBC sci-fi series together. If you've ever been curious about Blake's 7 but never made the jump, this is a great place to get acquainted with the show.</p><p>Think of it as the Big Blue Box format applied to a show that shares a lot of DNA with classic Doctor Who — same era, same BBC corridors, same Dudley Simpson on the music — but with a darker edge and its own distinct identity. This first episode covers The Way Back, the 1978 series opener written by Terry Nation.</p><p>The podcast is well underway, and at the time of this episode going out, we're currently halfway through reviewing Series 2, with plenty more still to come.</p><p>Thank you for checking out our other podcast, and we'd love you to come along on our journey through Blake's 7.
