Wishes really do come true! For all those who don't know yet: we are making a Doctor Who fanzine set to come out around July next year, focusing on the obscure parts of the fandom!
If you've been waiting for a fanzine about things like Iris Wildthyme, The Minister of Chance, BBV P.R.O.B.E. and such, you may be in luck! We're making art, fics and non-fiction essays about the underappreciated and less explored parts of canon (and non-canon).
Happy Dalek Remembarance day, by the way. Read all about the project on our INFO PAGE and tell your starved-for-obscure-content friends. If you've got questions you can send this blog an ask :^)
#doctor who fanzine#doctor who#dweu#iris wildthyme#obverse books#faction paradox#magic bullet productions#fanzine#thank you 5 for wishing this possible 🙏#also happy Gauda Prime day. since Blakes 7 is canon to doctor who i can say that here#kaldor city

Oh shit, today was Gazpacho Soup Day!
Fandom holidays are wild because you could be like "Its Gazpacho Soup Day Eve!" And people would actually know what you mean.
#to be fair the only fandom holiday I observe is the Doctor Who anniversary#and Public Domain Day if that counts#and I'm of course vaguely aware of Gauda Prime Day and Threshold Day but WILL forget those if nobody reminds me#anyway enjoy your nice hot Gazpacho soup everyone!#Red Dwarf#Gazpacho Soup Day

my favourite thing is when fandoms come together to celebrate painful moments in tv shows
like, in blake's 7 fandom, we celebrate the day that the infamously grim finale aired as gauda prime day even forty years later

Jae's Whumptober 2024 - 11-20
Second batch! 🍪 11 more to go.
Administrator | PG | A/V | Adventure | Avon hadn’t seen Vila all morning, but that wasn’t particularly unusual. They others claiming to not remember him was.
Governor | M | Gen | Dark | The colony was being starved, and they hadn’t even realised it yet.
Fugitive | PG | A/V | PGP AU Angst | “Someone pretty?” Cally queried, accurate as ever.
Interrogator | PG | Gen | | Avon, Vila thought, was behaving unusually since they had rescued him from Tonash.
Stabiliser | PG | A/V | Post-Canon Angst | It was always sad to see a fine mind crumble.
Saviour | PG | Gen | H/C | When they finally located the punishment grounds, Vila had been tethered by his wrist to a stone column for almost a day.
Operator | PG | Gen | Horror | Nothing in the original programming of the ship now called the Liberator indicated the necessity of a connection to biological beings.
Nemesis | PG | Gen | PGP | After Gauda Prime, Avon is not feeling like himself.
Hunter | PG | Gen | Angst | A hunter finds his prey.
Protector | PG | A/V | H/C | The Federation really hit them where it hurt, this time.

The complete first season of Terry Nation’s classic sci-fi adventure series will be published as a collection of brand-new hardback novelisations.
Blake’s 7 debuted on BBC television in 1978 and quickly developed a cult following of fans eager to enjoy the exploits of Roj Blake and his gang of rebels in their battle against the sinister Federation.
Now, for the first time, the original episodes have been adapted into full-length books, featuring lavish photos and artwork, and released as a single box set limited to just 1,500 copies.
Blake’s 7: Origins is due for publication on 27 March 2023, marking 45 years since the original broadcast of the first season’s final episode. The set of seven is now available to pre-order for just £99.99 (plus postage & packing) exclusively here.
Each adaptation comprises two stories from the TV series and has been written by a well-known sci-fi author:
The Way Back/Space Fall by Paul Cornell Cygnus Alpha/Time Squad by Marc Platt The Web/Seek-Locate-Destroy by Gary Russell Mission to Destiny/Duel by Jacqueline Rayner Project Avalon/Breakdown by Steve Cole Bounty/Deliverance by Una McCormack Orac/Redemption by James Goss
Producer and Commissioning Editor Peter Anghelides said: “Our wonderful writers bring their talent, imagination and wit to these new novelisations. Each of them already has an impressive track record as a novelist, not to mention a wide range of other writing in prose and other media.
“Unlike conventional novelisations, which tend to be written before a TV show or movie has been completed, these are all informed by the available reference materials, 45 years of the show, and the inventiveness of our authors. They are all big fans of the series — our very own ‘Blake’s 7’ for this unique collection.
“The Nation Estate very helpfully allowed us to see original drafts written by Terry, some hand-annotated, to reference as the origins of the TV show. Where appropriate, we’re staying faithful to the original series. For example, some draft scripts feature the characters Arco Trent and Brell Klein, who make it onto Liberator – but (spoiler alert) they won’t be escaping Cygnus Alpha in our novels.
“However, along with BBC filming, camera, and rehearsal scripts, those early drafts have informed these brand-new novels for all thirteen episodes of that first season. And with Redemption as the conclusion of Terry Nation’s original fourteen-story run, it’s the first time that any of the second season has been novelised!”
The premium hardback printed books are available to pre-order together in a single collection for just £99.99 (plus postage & packing) here. These books are not available to buy separately.
All the above prices include the special pre-order discount and are subject to change after general release.

It’s the 40th anniversary of Gauda Prime, so I thought I should offer more than a reblog, so have this!
When I first got on tumblr I did a series of posts tagged Why Classic Who Fans Should Watch Blake’s 7 (It’s great, and unlike most 21st C souls classic dw fans are prepared re. terrible SFX and beige telly faults - and if you like it, it’s one of the best rides you’ll ever have with a TV series.) Also, it was created by Terry Nation and made by a whole bunch of other Classic Who people. You will fall over at least ten of them every episode. They also nicked each other’s props as a bonus. It is literally part of the DW EU.
(I cannot reblog those posts because I accidentally deleted my first tumblr while trying to change my url and delete a sideblog. It was very B7, really, because tumblr offer you no take-backs if you do that. It’s just all over & you have no one to blame but yourself and the system.)
BUT I also combined it into a Dreamwidth post! So please follow the link above for a Non-Spoilery intro to a show that is awesome but which you will 100% spoiler yourself for if you ever try to search for anything on it online whatsoever. (I mean, if you like spoilers, do that. If you prefer not to be, DON’T DO IT.)
@captain-aralias also did an intro one time, which was very different but also entirely intended to oppress people into the fandom by talking about its excellence, so you could also check that out!
(may be spoilers in comments of both posts, so do watch out for that.)
In short, we are all mourning today in B7 fandom. If you want to have the genuinely fun time that will enable you to join us in our broken hearted remembrance, now is a great time for it - it’s even legitimately available via BritBox! (Piratical approaches are fairly traditional and fandom-appropriate, though.)
#doctor who#gauda prime day#i'm not tagging it with the fandom#because they'll find it anyway#and i don't want dw people to block it#this one day consider it for a mo#and if not#this is a short text post#no worries in scrolling by#gif#also btw i forgot to mention colin baker#like you will get some bonus colin too#but b7 is so awesome it slipped my mind#there is also ben steed but do not worry#the fandom will come to you and support you through that special bonding experience#also i wrote this post nearly 10 years ago and i haven't checked it lately so apologies should there be anything off in it at all. i can#alter it!

Audio
In honour of Gauda Prime Day, we present a song: Gauda Prime Apartment Complex
Featuring vocals by @foreignobjecticus, guitar by @bunn1cula and lyrics by @sothatsagoodthing. Based on Mariners Apartment Complex by Lana Del Rey.
Lyrics:
You took my sentence out of context At the Gauda Prime Rebellion Complex I ain’t no Federation tool
I’m the man, the legend, the master Yeah I know, my face is a disaster But you’ll still follow in my shoes
And what you’ve done in the years since I’ve seen ya You almost look like a die-hard believer Maybe you’ve forgiven me my sins
So kiss me now and say that you’ll join me Finally you found us, you found me I set all this up, waiting for you
We’ll find a way, just take my hand You look confused, and honestly you seem a little mad What’s with that gun? Don’t point it here, that’s where I am
BANG–BANG–BANG
They mistook my acting for evil I fucked up, I know that, but Deva Can’t a guy just do the best he can?
Catch a dude and sell him for money Think about it, it’s really kinda funny, How could Avon ever fall for that?
How could he think that I’m a deceiver? I’ve put on weight but I’m still a leader! And the bastard shot me where I stand!
But maybe now he’s here he’ll join the resistance Can’t keep us apart, no matter the distance Come on Avon, give it one more try
We’ll both agree it’s Tarrant’s fault Maybe this time we’ll talk about our feelings, not just shout It’s not so bad, it’s not like you made out with Servalan Wait? What was that?

Happy PGP Day!
It’s post Gauda Prime, and it’s time to pick up the pieces and/or write fix-it fanfic! Let’s raise a pick-me-up glass of Soma and celebrate!

Ever heard of Gauda Prime Day? You people might enjoy it.
The fact that we celebrate the day 80% of the main characters die as like our international fandom holiday really says just about everything you need to know about the Les Miserables fandom I think
