Blake himself, Gareth Thomas, has passed away.
A very sad day.

A brilliant actor and a wonderful character. Both will be sorely missed.

Damn. He'll be missed.
What now for full cast?
Season 3 interstitials?
Forget that. RIP a fave actor. Glad he came back for us.

So sad now. A lot of my enjoyment of Blake's 7 was down to his performance as Blake and he was great in the audios as well. I can only agree with the sentiment that he will be missed.

Never seen / listened to Blake's 7, but recently saw Children of the Stones and thought he was great in that. "Requiescat in pace".

Somehow - having never heard or watched Blake's 7 - I actually never realised until today that Blake and Kalendorf were the same person. While I might not have (yet) experienced his more well-known work, I'll say he brought a certain legitimacy and gravitas to Dalek Empire that only a well-seasoned professional can. It's really no wonder his work as Blake was so appreciated.

There’s a horror movie called Alien? That’s really offensive. No wonder everyone keeps invading you.

How very sad - far too young. Condolences to his family and friends.
