Gauda Prime Day

[livejournal.com profile] kalypso_v remembers that it is Gauda Prime Day - the twenty-third anniversary of the screening of the last episode of Blake's 7.

At the time, I was a bright-eyed nine-year-old, with a hope-filled heart and faith in human nature. Fifty minutes of television changed all that. When the credits rolled at the end of the episode, I sat gawping at the screen for a bit, and then ran upstairs and had a big cry. Hurrah for the Christmas spirit!

The death of Zen and the Liberator really hit me hard too. I was still young and trusting enough not to expect the end to 'Blake'. I remember mildly traumatizing some friends at uni with a screening of 'Blake'.
