Dramatization

This is a brand new series from Big Finish and B7. B7 puts out all the Blake's 7 stuff. This is set in the same universe, I believe, but not connected to B7.

Blake's 7 is a highly underrated series by Big Finish, just as it was a highly rated TV show back in the 90s. If you have not tried much of Big Finish's non-Who catalog, a simple series like this might be a good place to start!

I have included with this a series a BONUS! The BBC, back in the 90s, tried to do Dan Dare as a series. It shows its age but is entertaining enough.

Dan Dare is actually a comic character almost as old as Superman. He's been in books and comics. Now, he's in audio!

Don't be put off by the terrible cover photo! This series audio drama in the tradition of Blake's 7 and Kaldor City: dark and existential.

Here is the information from the website:

Episode 1 - Voyage to Venus by Richard Kurti and Bev Doyle

Brilliant test pilot, Dan Dare, is chosen to fly the Anastasia - a new experimental spacecraft – on its maiden voyage to Venus. This isn't exploration - it is to make first contact with a mysterious civilization that has sent TECHNOLOGICAL secrets as a goodwill gesture.

However, what Dan, Digby and Professor Peabody find on Venus isn’t goodwill, but a terrifyingly intelligent, cold-hearted ruler, the Mekon. A creature destined to become Dan Dare’s nemesis – and Earth’s greatest threat…



Episode 2 - The Red Moon Mystery by James Swallow

Unable to return to Earth, Dan Dare and the crew of the Anastasia head to the desolate planet Mars, where Dan's estranged Uncle Ivor is part of a research team working on a top-secret archaeological dig; but when they find the base wrecked and the scientists missing, Dare, Digby and Professor Peabody soon discover that the Red Planet is not nearly as dead as everyone thought and that Ivor’s expedition has woken an army of deadly insect-creatures that threaten to swarm and engulf the Earth… Dare must stop the aliens, but can he really RESORT to genocide in order to save the human race?



Episode 3 - Marooned on Mercury by Marc Platt

When a distress call summons the crew of the Anastasia to the burning wilderness of Mercury, they are reunited with their old ally, Sondar. He tells them of the beleaguered Mercurians who are held in thrall to a cruel new taskmaster - the Mekon! THE EXILED Mekon is rallying his forces, plotting a desperate revenge against his former homeworld of Venus and his hated enemy, Colonel Dan Dare!

  • Does anyone have the second half of this series?  Thanks.

    • I am not a lover of Big Finish productions. A bit to full frontal for my taste.

      Hence I only kept a recording at 64kbps.

      I had hoped someone would come up with a higher encode for you; but as they haven't, I offer you mine.

      Details of the episodes are on the B F website.

      Enjoy.

    • William! 

      Many thanks for this!  

      They sound totally ok - easily very listenable! 

      Thanks  

      DK 

  • Thanks for the U tube post Brian. Was wondering if there's anyway for you to upload the video to TP.

    I'd do it myself, but unfortunately I just don't know how.

    And thank you Rik for what is obviously a very popular post for me and I guess just about everyone else.

    Also thanks to Martin for his informative background on DD especially the Radio Luxembourg series.

    Come to think of it, I don't think I've ever seen a post from Radio Luxembourg anywhere.

    Maybe just nothing exists.

    • yeh. I thought the Dan Dare on archive.org, was the luxemberg version. But it was the 9o's one. I enjoyed it though.

      There is stuff on radio luxemberg itself online. such as

      https://archive.org/details/DavidGellOnRadioLuxembourg1963 

      and

      https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cWijS7lbqOc

      which is part 10 of a history of dj's, and part 1 of a 3 parter of a history of radio luxemberg dj's.

      and

      http://www.offringa.nl/radioluxembourg.htm.

      You will find links there, but no Dan Dare I'm afraid.

    • Thanks for the new info Martin, I'll check it out.

    •  Here is a MP4 375 MB of the Dan Dare - The Voyage to Venus (Feature Version) Motion comic with audio from the bbc version.

    • Thanks so much Brian for the UL,very kind of you.

      Could I trouble you one more time if I may, would it be also possible to UL episodes from the animation series? 

      Actually I was hoping you could do that even more then the feature since that's totally different from the audio drama which the feature visualizes and is actual made for TV animation.

      But again, really appreciate your UL.
