An x265/HEVC compatible player or app is REQUIRED to play back video encoded in this format.
Click on picture above for more information on x265 video and how to play it.
Note : x265 playback is CPU intensive and larger displays increase the CPU load. Refer to your CPU usage to see how your hardware is coping. If x265 playback jitters but x264 is smooth then you may need to upgrade your hardware or use a different application to play x265. Trying a different application in the first instance is easier and much less expensive
Please ask or do some research before rating or commenting negatively regarding playback issues.
This collection includes the short DVD extra "Outtakes" in addition to my previously released Blake's 7 Season 1 episodes. Just download this if you already have the others. Thanks!!

Series Description
Blake's 7 was the hit BBC space opera launched in the wake of Star Wars, though with a grittier sensibility and produced on a fraction of the budget. Over 13 episodes the first series introduced freedom-fighter Blake (Gareth Thomas) as he escaped from the Orwellian Federation, gathered a crew of low-life rebels, salvaged an alien starship called the Liberator, and began striking back against the forces of Supreme Commander Servalan (sultry Jacqueline Pearce). The effects were cheap, and alien planets were represented by a disused quarry or an industrial complex, but the strong characters and cynical storylines created by Doctor Who veteran Terry Nation remain involving.
The perfect foil for Blake was Paul Darrow's Avon, a near psychopathic criminal mastermind who only fought to save his skin. The cowardly Vila (Michael Keating) was almost as memorable, while the female leads were Jenna (Sally Knyvette), a smuggler and pilot, and determined Auron telepath Cally (Jan Chappell). Also on board was Gan (David Jackson), inhibited from violence by a brain implant. With even the good guys being criminals, including murderers, this was a galaxy far, far away from previous screen space opera. Though undeniably dated, the show is still vintage TV SF, right from the opening three-parter "The Way Back / Spacefall / Cygnus Alpha" to the cliff-hanging shocker "Orac", which introduces the final member of the un-magnificent seven.
Episode 1. The Way Back
Former resistance leader Roj Blake witnesses a massacre and is subsequently framed for a series of fictional crimes by the totalitarian Federation.
Episode 2. Space Fall
Blake takes the prison transport ship "London" under siege with help from Kerr Avon and Jenna Stannis. But when the siege fails, Blake, Jenna and Avon are sent to investigate a abandoned alien spaceship, where Blake decides to take to control of the ship and escape.
Episode 3. Cygnus Alpha
Blake, Avon and Jenna follows the prison transport ship "London" to the Federation prison planet "Cygnus Alpha" where Blake teleports to the surface to free the prisoners. But the planet's supreme ruler Vargas wants to take over "The Liberator" in his goal for total power and conquest of the galaxy.
Episode 4. Time Squad
Blake picks up an unidentified space projectile en route to an attack on Saurian Major, accidentally allowing three dangerous aliens aboard the Liberator.
Episode 5. The Web
Cally comes under the influence of an alien intelligence from her own peoples' legends, causing her to sabotage the Liberator. The ship goes off course and becomes ensnared by an organic web that surrounds a remote planet inhabited by a genetically-engineered race and their creators.
Episode 6. Seek-Locate-Destroy
Supreme Commander Servalan assigns one-eyed federation military officer Space Commander Travis (wounded by Blake) to eliminate Blake and the crew of the Liberator. But Travis takes Cally captive, when Blake and the crew steal a message decoder from a Federation security base on Centero.
Episode 7. Mission to Destiny
Kendall, the captain of a spaceship whose crew has been murdered, offers Blake the location to Destiny if he helps him find the killer on-board the ship.
Episode 8. Duel
On a world destroyed by warfare, two powerful aliens force Blake and Travis to fight each other to the death so their ships will survive.
Episode 9. Project Avalon
Blake and Jenna teleport down to evacuate a well-known resistance leader named Avalon, only to find that she was captured by the Federation. The Liberator's crew launch a rescue mission, not realizing that Travis is using Avalon as bait.
Episode 10. Breakdown
The Liberator heads for space station XK72 where they seek help from surgeon Professor Kayn, when Gan's limiter implant malfunctions causing Gan to go psychotic and violently attack members of the crew. But Professor Kayn has other plans and he informs the Federation of the crew's presence on-board the space station.
Episode 11. Bounty
Blake and Jenna set out to convince Sarkoff, the exiled former president of the planet Lindor to return to lead his people, before the Federation assumes control of the planet. But the Liberator is taken over by a group of bounty hunters known as The Amagons.
Episode 12. Deliverance
Approaching Cephlon, the Liberator crew witness a spacecraft crash land on the planet. They rescue a man named Ensor, who was trying to get back to his father on Aristo and arrange for the Federation to purchase something called Orac. He forces Blake and Cally to fly him to Aristo, leaving Avon, Jenna, Gan, and Vila stranded on the radiation-scarred surface of Cephlon.
Episode 13. Orac
The crew of the Liberator head to the planet Aristo to deliver medical supplies to the computer scientist Ensor, creator of the mobile super-computer Orac. Where Blake and Cally require from Ensor, anti-radiation drugs for Avon, Gan, Vila and Jenna who have absorbed radiation from Cephlon. Travis and Serverlan have also arrived on Aristo as they bid on claiming Orac for themselves.
