Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. What did Justin name his most advanced genetically-engineered animal in "Animals?"

Answer: Og

Loosely based on "The Island of Dr. Moreau," this episode isn't exactly known as a fan favorite!

2. On what planet did Blake and Cally find an irascible scientist named Ensor, and his equally irascible computer, Orac?

Answer: Aristo

The actor who played Ensor, Derek Farr, also voiced Orac in this series A finale. Orac was played from series B onward by Peter Tuddenham.

3. "I am not expendable, I am not stupid, and I am not going." In which episode does Avon make this declaration?

Answer: Horizon

The official "Blake's 7" fan club takes its name from this episode!

4. Who directed "Voice From the Past?"

Answer: George Spenton-Foster

Spenton-Foster directed several episodes of "Blake's 7," including "Weapon," "Gambit," and "Pressure Point."

5. What powerful weapon developed by Egrorian was desired by both Avon and Servalan?

Answer: Tachyon Funnel

John Savident, who played Egrorian, was also seen in the season B episode "Trial" as "Old Starkiller," Fleet-Warden General Samor.

6. On the planet Xenon, what are telekenetics called?

Answer: Seska

The Seska were all female, while the Hommiks were nearly uniformly all male.
Neither Pella (Seska) nor Gunn-Sarr (Hommik) survived their encounter with Avon!

7. Travis kidnapped Blake's cousin Ingrid on the planet Exbar, where Blake's uncle Ushton was exiled.

Answer: False

Cousin Inga was played by Judy Buxton, who would appear later with Gareth Thomas in "By the Sword Divided" (a miniseries that also featured Janet Lees-Price, aka Mrs. Paul Darrow).

Answer: left

Travis was played by Stephen Greif in series A and Brian Croucher in series B.

9. From whom did the former crew of the Liberator inherit Scorpio?

Answer: Dorian

The character Dorian, played by Geoffrey Burridge, seems to have been inspired by Oscar Wilde's book "The Portrait of Dorian Gray."

10. Who created "Blake's 7"?

Answer: Terry Nation

Terry Nation also created the Daleks on "Doctor Who."
