March 17th, 2025 - 8:27amI wonder when we will get a trailer and list of new special features for this release?

March 24th, 2025 - 9:59pmWith any luck next month with a possible May/June release.

February 28th, 2025 - 8:44pmChris Thompson on x/twitter: Not going to say much until we have something to show but if you liked the new FX for Series A then we may have gone a bit nuts for series B…

March 3rd, 2025 - 9:05amThere is a LOT they could do for Star One (to replace the intergalactic invasion of the kitchen implements) and I am totally excited to see what they’re going to do there!

February 28th, 2025 - 7:04pmIt’s number one already in Amazons best sellers chart.

Cant wait

February 28th, 2025 - 3:33amI hadn’t expected this until the end of the year, season 2 is outstanding. My personal favourite episode is Redemption. A perfect sequel to season 1’s “Orac”, I just love the reveal of the creators of the Liberator. Really looking forward to this.

February 27th, 2025 - 11:53pmI wasn’t expecting this to get announced today. I
I’m hoping for a may/june release. Leaves the door open for November release of season 3 and a mid may 2026 release of s4.
I know at least there was new commentaries planned to be recorded as jan Chappell and Brian croucher said back in November they were going to record in January.
As for the extras I’d guess:
Alternative fx on all 13 eps
Liberation: making of season 2 (new Chris chapman 2025 version)
Gareth Thomas tribute
In conversation: Brian Croucher
In conversation: Jan Chappell
The making of Blake 7 season 2 (archival kevin Jon Davies version)
New Commentaries
Some convention footage
Previous dvd extras and commentaries
Some pdf material (there is far less pdf material than season 1 so don’t expect a lot)
Craig F
February 28th, 2025 - 12:20amI’m still hopeful of new finds of film trims/inserts & possibly scripts donated or loaned.
Time will tell I suppose.

February 28th, 2025 - 6:43amWas there any film elements that survive for series 2?
Gordon
February 28th, 2025 - 10:05amI asked around and the only film elements that are said to exist for 2,3 and 4 are for s3 ep 7 Children of Auron.
There isn’t much paperwork that survives either according to Richard bignell. Only 1 production file for each of the remaining seasons remain and each is for the opening episode of each season and for either season 3 or 4 (he can’t remember which) just contains an editing script. The majority of 2,3 and 4 are microfilm scripts but they are hunting for hard copies as they are higher quality due to the lower resolution the microfilm scripts were scanned in

February 28th, 2025 - 12:20pmDon’t forget that Steve Roberts saved the final episode film inserts from a bin (as used on the DVD). Paul V acquired the Auron film relatively recently.

February 28th, 2025 - 5:30pmSo seems series 1 had the most surviving film elements of the show. I’m enjoying series 1 and looking forward to series 2.
Craig F
February 28th, 2025 - 6:32pmWith no original film elements available for season 2 maybe this was why we had a quicker than expected announcement.
Less restoration needed so would say season 3 should be out by the end of the year.
The Final Act…
February 27th, 2025 - 11:34pmOne of the greatest and most influential seasons of TV ever made.

February 27th, 2025 - 9:43pmAmazing !
MIKK89
February 27th, 2025 - 8:47pmSTAR ONE With a New Fleet of Alien Ships and new effects… HELL YEAH!
ChrisP
February 27th, 2025 - 9:22pmAlternative ending with daleks!
(I can dream)
Craig F
February 28th, 2025 - 12:15amWas thinking that too, I always thought the ending was a cop out.
In reality they just couldn’t afford to do a major space battle until now.
ChrisP
February 27th, 2025 - 8:07pmNormally I am a bit neutral about new effects but I loved the new fx on series 1. So have already preordered immediately.
ChrisP
February 27th, 2025 - 8:05pmWorth it for Gambit alone!
Craig F
February 28th, 2025 - 12:11amAgreed by far the best episode of all 4 seasons with orbit in second place.
You can’t beat a Robert Holmes story in my opinion.
Peter
February 28th, 2025 - 10:14amTotally agree with you guys: it may not be an exactly typical story, but ‘Gambit’ is by my fav of the whole show. “You 10 credit touch!”. Wasn’t expecting this release so soon, so that’s a nice end to the week. 🙂
