Blake’s 7: Assassin
BBC1 premieres the 46th episode of Terry Nation’s science fiction series Blake’s 7. Richard Hurndall guest stars; Doctor Who producer John Nathan-Turner is so impressed with Hurndall’s “Hartnell-esque” performance that he casts the actor in the late William Hartnell’s role of the first Doctor in the 20th anniversary special The Five Doctors in 1983.
