Blake's 7
From The TV IV
Blake's 7, (shown in the titles as Blakes 7, with no apostrophe) is an English science fiction show that ran from 1978 to 1981. It tells the story of a band of escaped criminals and rebels who happen upon a derelict ship of incredible power, and the crew's subsequent conflict with a galaxy spanning Federation.
The title Blake's 7 comes from the leader's name, Roj Blake , and the number of crew on board, both human and artificial.
The series, although plagued by a low budget, is memorable as it featured strong characterisation, morally ambiguous characters and creative plot design.
