Trivia / Blakes Seven S 1 E 3 Cygnus Alpha

• Creator Backlash: BRIAN BLESSED!!!!! was embarrassed by his guest role, as he thought he overplayed it too much. Think about that for a minute.
• First Appearance: Of Zen.
• Hey, It's That Place!: Springwell Lock Quarry was also used in "Orac", as well as several Doctor Who episodes.
• What Could Have Been: The characters killed in the escape were originally supposed to become the missing members of the Seven, until the writers found it was too difficult to write lines for that many people. Therefore Zen the computer becomes one of the Seven instead, with Cally joining in "Time Squad".
