Gareth Thomas 1945-2016

We are very sorry to hear about the death of Gareth Thomas earlier today. Gareth had been a friend of Magic Bullet for decades, reprising his role as Blake in the two Blake's 7 plays "The Mark of Kane" and "The Logic of Empire", as well as appearing with Brian Croucher in our satirical play "When Travis Met Blake." He will be very much missed.
