30 Days of Blake's 7 - Day 12
May. 13th, 2026 07:25 pm Day 12: Favourite villain
Missed posting yesterday, so you'll get two today. Favourite villain is Servalan of course, although her Sleer incarnation managed to be both over and under-written as a result of Surprise! Fourth Series! Honorable mention to both editions of Travis.
Does Carnell qualify as a villain? I'm not entirely sure he's unambiguously one - he strikes me as closer to a neutral for hire, even if he's officially a Federation employee.
Single episode villain is actually a duo, in the form of Krantor/Toise. And yes, I typed it that way very deliberately. :-> And honourable mentions to Vargas, superbly played by Large Ham BRIAN BLESSED, and Bayban the Butcher, played by Colin Baker in Large Ham mode. Apparently I like Large Ham villains...
