LOL! I've never seen Blake's 7 so I have to ask... how serious was the show? The effects with the theme song crack me up, but I know even as recently as the 80's (well, it seems recent to me, that was when the first computer graphics were incorporated) the effects could be very silly indeed. Let me see if I can find an example that just thrilled me at the time the show was on (when I was maybe 8 or so)...
Found it! Holy crap, this makes me laugh now. But I didn't bat an eye at the doughy, jumpsuit-clad hero twirling into the ether back then, no.
