What in the world is Blake's 7?

If you've ever seen Doctor Who, it's got about that level of special
effects.  If you've ever seen the original Star Trek series, it's got
that kind of a story.

The plot, briefly:  There's a guy named Blake (obviously), who *was* the
leader of a resistance group against a rather overweening Federation.
He was caught, mindwiped, forced to "confess" that "I was misguided", etc.,
and then even that was mindwiped.  They couldn't kill him, because then
he'd be a martyr, and there were enough of the crumbling resistance left
who didn't believe his confession.  Anyway, that's all before the story
starts.

In the first episode, he finds some of this out.  During the series, he
and a group of others (hence the name, Blake's 7) go cruising around the
galaxy, fighting for the rebellion.

Oh yeah.  It's not anime.  :)
