What’s that? You thought Blake’s 7 was finished on this blog? Nope! As a big fan of the Big Finish audio releases for Doctor Who, I had to give their Blake’s 7 range a go, especially as the whole of the first series was relatively cheap! Let’s take a look at the first half of the first Full Cast Audio Drama series, shall we!

The Ice Warriors return to televised Doctor Who for the first time in a few years, and bring with them a new member class of their race: The Ice Queen. A new bit of continuity to an old race, and an ending that directly connects to 70s Who… a good mix there then! But what about the story itself? Well, Victorian era British troops against Ice Warriors… it was good! Let’s take a closer look…

The Wrestling Rundown moves forward into the 16-bit era with Super WrestleMania, the first game to use the Acclaim engine that would be used for the next three games after this. Does it get off to a strong start? Erm… no, not really.

Doctor Who does its first three-parter since, arguably in some people’s minds, the end of Series 3, and in doing so completely breaks my header template… Oh well! The modern three-part stories are roughly the same length as the classic six part stories you got mostly in the 70s, but this is looser than those. Really it feels like a two part story with Extremis serving as a prologue. Either way it was an entertaining story with some good, and new, villains, though the ending felt a tad rushed and cliché. Let’s take a deeper look!

Blake’s 7 comes to its ultimate conclusion with the last four episodes of Series 4. Besides the now infamous ending to Episode 13, does the show go out with a bang? Close, I really loved three of the four episodes, which is better than most of this series so far, but it still doesn’t come close to Series 3. Still, a good end, and certainly a memorable one…

Arrow’s fifth season was a return to form for the show in most regards. It sits comfortably as not as good as Seasons 1 and 2, but far better than Season 3 and 4. It also ties up the flashbacks and has a grand finale involving many returning characters from the show…

Arrow’s fifth season reaches its big finale, and what a finale it was. In fact this last chunk of episodes felt far more like a overall series finale than a season finale… well, accept that end-of-season cliffhanger… Anyway, let’s take a look!

The Flash’s third season was the weakest so far, but that doesn’t mean it was bad, just not as good (it was no Arrow Season 3, that’s for sure!) Flashpoint, Savitar, Kid Flash, Gorilla Grodd invasion, alien invasion, a musical episode and a disappointing season cliffhanger, this season had it all!
