Horizon and Pitch Films present:
A SPECIAL LAUNCH EVENT - BLAKE'S 7 SEASON 2 DVDs
16th January 2005
Horizon is delighted to bring B7 fans an exclusive BLAKE'S 7
event, which will take place at the Tricycle Theatre, 269 Kilburn
High Road, London NW6 7JR, to coincide with the launch of the Season
2 DVDs on 16th January 2005.
In conjunction with BBC Worldwide and Pitch Films, Horizon has
arranged an exclusive screening of the short comedy movie
"Blake's Junction 7" for the original B7 cast and crew,
and some of
the cast and crew of the film. B7 fans will get to watch the movie
together with the Guests of Honour, collect their DVDs and have them
signed by the cast members present on the day.
We are pleased to confirm that (subject to work commitments) the
guests so far will be: Gareth Thomas, Jan Chappell, Michael
Keating, Jacqueline Pearce, David Jackson, Peter Tuddenham and Brian
Croucher. We hope to announce further guests shortly. Guests will
be signing from 10.30am.
"BLAKE'S JUNCTION 7"
Written by Tim Plester and directed by Ben Gregor of Pitch Films,
this film is an homage to Blake's 7 and features the characters
stopping at Newport Pagnell service station some years after the
events in the final episode. It stars Martin Freeman and Mackenzie
Crook (Tim & Gareth from BBC's `The Office') and features
the voice
of Peter Tuddenham as Orac. The film was an official selection in
the 2004 Edinburgh International Film Festival.
The screening, in the company of the event Guests of Honour, starts
at 12.45pm, and will be followed by a Q&A session with Tim Plester
and other members of the production company. There will then be a
further Q&A panel featuring the Blake's 7 guests.
SIGNED PHOTOGRAPHS and OTHER MERCHANDISE
There will be a large selection of excellent 10x8 photos, as well as
the fabulous photo poster produced by Showmasters in March 04 for
the Season 1 signings at the London Film & Comic Con, available to
buy on the day which the cast will be happy to sign for you. There
will be a selection of other merchandise for sale, including the
Fabulous Films remastered Video Box sets at discounted prices,
including free cast signatures. You can bring along your own items
to sign, although there will be a £5 charge made for each
signature on items not purchased from Horizon on the day.

HOW TO ORDER
You can pay by credit or debit card, or by cheque (sterling only).
Cheques should be made payable to HORIZON and posted with your order
form to Diane Gies, Horizon, 37 Linton Avenue, Borehamwood, Herts.
WD6 4RB. If you previously bought the Season 1 box set, or tickets
for the March 2004 Audience with B7 using a credit/debit card, and
allowed us to keep your details on file, you will be able to order
by email to
horizonb7@... . If we are holding your
details as previously agreed, and you're using the same card, all
we will need is the last 3 digits of your card number, and the
current expiry date, which you can email to us with your order.
However,you are welcome to phone Diane with the card information if
you prefer.
Credit Cards – additional information: we would like your
permission to take the payment from your card as soon as we receive
your order as this will make the process much easier to administer
rather than having a huge batch of orders to process at the last
minute. If you prefer us not to take the payment until 10th January
you will only receive 2 signatures. If you prefer for us not to
take payment until we are ready to ship the DVDs we cannot guarantee
any cast signatures and you will not be entered into the pre-order
prize draw. Unless you clearly state a preference, we will process
your payment as soon as possible after we receive your order, and
will email a receipt once this has gone through.
ORDER FORM: We're posting the order form here as part of the text of
this message, but if you need to print it out we'll also be posting
it separately as a file in this yahoo group, and it can also be
emailed to you directly as a word attachment. If you'd like Diane
to email it to you directly, please email her to let her know, on
horizonb7@...
