Doctor Who av contest: Are you in the right show?

[Starkers]

OK new avatar contest, we all know that Doctor Who and Blakes 7 share a lot of things, Terry Nation, writers, directors, SFX wizs...and actors, who are the focus here. Avs should show either Doctor Who alumni in B7 or B7 alumni in Doctor Who. Doesn't matter which came first, they should just be better known for one (I'll be fairly lenient here in the instance of people with one appearance in each if one is clearly a way bigger/better known role.)

The example is Michael Keating who played Vila in every episode of B7, but had a role in The Sunmakers (so you'd show him in The Sunmakers obviously )

Standard av rules apply 150x150 ect. Poll will go up Tuesday!

Have you ever heard of an internet search engine?

The OP could have posted a couple of links to the relevant cast lists.

I'm in the same boat as Timelord Victorious. Never saw Blake's 7, have no idea of any of the characters (I assume one of them is named Blake) or who played them at all, let alone who was on Doctor Who and "known enough" to qualify. I'm sitting this one out.

Some good entries so far and all legit (I hadn't even thought of Torchwood but that's a great entry.) Still one Doctor Who who turned up in B7 (cough Six cough) and another B7 alumni who turned up in Robots of Death. There are others but as has been said a quick squiz on the internet should I'd the most obvious ones at least.

Timewalker; if you type Blake's 7 into google you will get a complete cast list, several articles as well as a link to a playlist of the complete series on youtube.

Thanks to instant email notifications, I know what your original post said. So due to the insulting snark you included, it should come as no surprise to you that I will not be participating.

There was absolutely no need whatsoever to post what you did, and your edit doesn't erase the fact that you posted it and I've seen it.

I was quite good at researching a topic by myself when I was schooled, thankyouverymuch.

Aw snap!

Hey guys this is just a bit of fun at the end of the day if people don't want to enter that's fine, but I did find this if people just need a little help

The sixth Doctor and the Black Guardian?

 

[Starkers]

Oh nice one!

 

[Kai "the spy"]

Though I am a bit disappointed it's only five entries, I do not think that there will be any more.

 

[Starkers]

Actually there will be 6 as I need to add my own. Sorry been that kind of a week last call poll up tomorrow!

 

[Starkers]

Poll up in a couple of hours. Here's mine. I suspect Avon was just posing as a UNIT soldier to gain access to their computers
