BBC News reports that, together with B7 Media’s Andrew Mark Sewell and Simon Moorhead, actor Paul Darrow has bought the rights to Blake’s 7 from the estate of its late creator, Terry Nation. Darrow and the others in the consortium announce plans to relaunch the show as a miniseries, picking up the story 25 years after the 1981 series finale, with a budget of £3,000,000 and Darrow as the only returning cast member, surrounded by new characters. If the miniseries is a success, it is hoped that a full series revival, or future TV movies or miniseries, will result. The project is targeted for an early 2005 airdate, but – perhaps unaware that still-secret plans for the BBC to revive Doctor Who will steal the thunder of the Blake’s 7 announcement – the consortium will fall into disarray over creative and logistical issues, and Blake’s 7 will not be revived on television.

Celebrating 40 years of Doctor Who, Doctor Who: Devils’ Planets – The Music Of Tristram Cary is released, including the complete underscores from The Daleks (1963/64), The Daleks’ Masterplan (1965/66) and The Mutants (1972); the marks the release of the earliest episodes of Doctor Who for which the complete music score still exists. The album quickly sells out and becomes a coveted collectors’ item; this is also the final Doctor Who archive music release from the BBC’s in-house label, and the last Doctor Who television soundtrack music to be released prior to the new series soundtracks.

With its hand forced by a scoop in the London Daily Telegraph, the BBC confirms that plans are afoot to relaunch Doctor Who as a full television series for the first time since 1989. As the series has only just been commissioned, no casting decisions have been made yet, but the series is to be overseen by writer and producer Russell T. Davies, whose most high-profile project at the time is the gay-themed drama series Queer As Folk (though Davies also contributed a novel to the Doctor Who New Adventures book series in the late ’90s, and has been approached several times by Big Finish Productions to write a script for a Doctor Who audio story). Production won’t begin until sometime in 2004, with the series set to premiere in 2005. The BBC had planned to sit on the news until November 23rd, 2003 – the 40th anniversary of Doctor Who’s first broadcast.
