Blake's 7: Fenidom Part One

[M1ggins]

£10 for lights wouldn't have gone amiss.

[coyran]

The model shot are spot on!

[AlbinoCaterpillar]

It might be the fact that I'm hard of hearing, but I really have no idea what's going on because I can't hear the dialogue. It might be just me. From what I did hear, Avon sounds exactly like Paul Darrow.

[YoodellyHoo]

Tarrant sounds more like Sylvester McCoy than Tarrant.

[stegatops]

Makes you appreciate how good the real thing was.............apparently its not as easy as it looks.

Its a slap in the face to all those amateurs who say "I could do it if only I was given the chance."

[Thoughtland]

There seems to be a cardboard egg tray on the wall and Orac looks like a fish tank full of Christmas lights.

Is the one with the ponytail meant to be Vila?

[hostroute]

Is it just me or is "femidon" just a bit too close to "femidom" for comfort.

[Yakerina]

Can't be sure. But it's not ME.

[mthurlby]

I was thinking just the same thing! ;-) Great minds think alike and all that!

[mthurlby]

@hostroute I know exactly what you mean!

[Zephyesa]

@hostroute u mean 'fenidom?

[galuidi]

Hey ! I don't know about the acting BUT (sometimes) the voices and dialog are spot on. Nice one lads. I have always wanted to go to a Treky convention with a T-shirt with the B7 logo on it and the words " F*@K the Federation"

[psychonaut3]

considering that Liberator was destroyed at the end of series 3....This looks like a Rammstein convention...Btw, my friend has been approached by auntie with a view to a Blake's 7 relaunch in 2010...Can't say much more, but he's motoring through the original show which I loved from 1978-81.

[penguinpetal]

Well, it's better than some of the fanfic I've read, but none of the girls are in it!

[garypayne]

funny thing is that box of floresent talking chocklates was in the episode ` brian the brain` in space 1999 tho that series was much better :D

[jazzx251]

Abysmal acting.

Orac gave the best effort - which makes this simply atrocious.

I mean - Avon - there's a character you surely can't go wrong impersonating.

But this proves that wrong. Awful.

[psychonaut3]

Yes, mimicry is the lowest form of acting, just as sarcasm is the lowest form of wit.

This makes Stardrive look like a BAFTA winner.

[irontoad123]

this looks like it done at the pub

[godscuttingyoudown]

i wish the dvds were still in print

[Winedarkseas]

great stuff. orac in particular was eerily spot-on! was this peter tuddenham's final voice-over? lol

[Ashworth6]

The actors playing Avon and Orac have their voices and mannerisms so spot-on its spooky! And the special effects are as equally rubbish as those in the original show. Quite brilliant.

[MasterJediDude]

Is ORAC a box of Christmas ornaments? Pretty funny.

[carlguitar69]

Should have called it femidom lol

[rickylvu42]

love this show

[psxsite]

Damn, I thought I was a fan.

You guys are serious hardcore. :)

Wish I could get into it, however I'm looking for the orig series from '79.

[Broyale26]

isohunt, sir.

[amandeep2000]

well done you are obvious fans as i am

[markstirton]

utter crap

[vilakins]

Ha! The shaky hand-held space shots are worthy of BSG. :-) Orac's voice is superb, Avon and Tarrant catch their originals' intonations and mannerisms well, but Vila doesn't quite get the voice. And a beard and pony tail? Pity abut the lack of lighting, but I suppose it was deliberate so they wouldn't have to mock up a Liberator flight deck.

[intermender]

hey that was great! classic!

[patdamien]

"set your co-ordinants to planet EXTACY and then well teleport down and get some more of that CRACK and ICE".

[straker2]

LOL! That was so bad it was almost good. The shonky space scenes were worthy of the real show! :)

[Midlandsgoat]

lol Tarrent and Avon are great impressions, all the mannerisms too.

[pertuk]

Great! - the voice liknesses of Avona dn Orac were particularly good!

[macey74]

Wow - the direction is fantastic!

[VilaRestil]

Which direction? North, south, east, or west? :-)

IMHO, they could have spent a bit more on the lighting budget! Very *dark* and moody!!!

[orac101]

VHS cameras were a bit primitive in those days ;)

A B7 fan who enjoyed our B7 Fenidom eppy has very kindly offered to digitally remaster the whole thing using pro-tools. His main aim is to brighten up the flight deck scenes and improve the sound quality on the location footage which has audio drop-outs.

Once done, the new version will be re-edited and uploaded on here as well as Google.

[johnvonahlen]

May I remind you I have far more important things to do than act as your lookout!!

LOL - I love it...

[Sharpblue]

Fantastic - ORAC a plastic box full of christmas baubles

[sydcowley]

not only have you put me off going to star one.. you have put me off life.
