Together in Electric Dreams

Continuing our series of unpublished Blake's 7-related material, we present Electronic Dream by Alan Stevens, a brief script set between "Terminal" and "Rescue," and featuring Cally. Originally meant as the basis for a comic which was to appear in Scorpio Attack! with artwork by Jonathan Helm (as a follow-up to his and Alan's earlier collaboration, "Counterattack"), it is reproduced here for the first time.

Siren FM radio today

Just a quick note to UK listeners (and international ones as time zones allow) to tune in to Siren FM from 5.25 BST tonight, as their drivetime programme will feature not only myself (Alan Stevens), but also Daniel Blythe, author of Virgin-era and RTD-era Doctor Who novels, and Richard Martin, director of such classic Doctor Who serials as The Dalek Invasion of Earth, The Web Planet and The Chase. You can listen live to Siren here.

New article: Spiral Conflict

This month, we begin a new series of additions to our on-site Features. Some time ago, Alan wrote two articles and a script for a short comic for the Blake's 7 zine Scorpio Attack!, but unfortunately it ceased production before they could be published. We have obtained the editor's permission to include these pieces on kaldorcity.com, and will do so over the coming months. We start with Spiral Conflict: Blake's 7's Galactic and Intergalactic Wars, an insightful piece for fans of the series arguing that what is sometimes taken as a script editing error is in fact a complicated political arc running through Seasons Three and Four.

Post-Sci Fi London

Just a quick post to say hello to everyone we met at the Sci-Fi London Film Festival and, if you're visiting this site for the first time after seeing the Doctor Who panel, welcome! We had a great time, and everyone we met there was having one too. Looking forward to next year's festival!
