This self contained four-story set is the latest Big Finish Blake's 7 release, accompanying two complete series of full-cast adventures, and the award-winning range of Blake's 7 - Liberator Chronicles volumes. The stories are set within the third BBC TV series, as Paul Darrow's Avon begins to cement his place as the leader of the anti-heroes on their stolen alien ship. Liberation by Steve Lyons. In the aftermath of the Galactic War, everything has changed for Blake's former associates. Having lost their leader, they are forced to work with new allies - people they can't trust. And that may just get all of them killed. Outpost by Christopher Cooper. Tarrant and Vila are on a mission to the abandoned outpost Clivian 410B when a Federation taskforce attacks. The wary crewmates must learn to work together if they stand any chance of staying alive. Close Enough by Sophia McDougall. When the crew of the Liberator are lured into a trap, it's Avon's life - and the freedom of the galaxy - that hang in the balance, while Cally regains something she thought she had lost forever. Solus by George Mann. When the Liberator responds to a distress call from the Solus research station, Avon is hoping to find something valuable he can salvage. Instead, he finds only one survivor amongst the wreckage: President Servalan. Blake's 7 proves to be one of Big Finish's most popular ranges, with fans of the original late 1970s BBC1 series enjoying many of the TV actors returning to their roles. Yasmin Bannerman (Doctor Who, Merseybeat) has been cast as Dayna Mellanby, a character originally played by Josette Simon. CAST: Paul Darrow (Kerr Avon), Michael Keating (Vila Restal), Jan Chappell (Cally), Steven Pacey (Del Tarrant), Jacqueline Pearce (Servalan), Yasmin Bannerman (Dayna Mellanby), Alistair Lock (Zen/Orac), Sara Powell (Rokon), Stephen Boxer (Tarkol), Daniel Collard (Aqulia / Guard #1 / Guard #2), Sophia Hannides (Shuuna), Tracy Wiles (Valance / Roska), Keith Drinkel (Kaverin), Charlotte Watson (Imra).
