And Blake will be forced to leave behind all that matters to him...

FACT FILE

 

  • Warship was originally planned as part of a Liberator Chronicles boxset. The three stories would have explained what happened after Star One - the Galactic War, the subsequent disappearance of Blake and Jenna and the fate of the Liberator before Aftermath. 

 

  • The stories were titled The Galactic War, Jenna's Story and Blake's Story. Peter Anghelides was originally assigned to write Blake's Story.

 

  • When the original writer selected for Galactic War turned out to be unavailable, Angehlides volunteered to step in. Mark Wright and Cavan Soctt were subsequently commissioned to write Blake's Story.

 

  • The Galactic War Liberator Chronicles would have included narration from Blake, Jenna, Avon, Vila and Cally. Each would have narrated their own story with some interaction from the others.

 

  • Andrew Mark Sewell of B7 media suggested it should be a full cast production.

 

  • Anghelides pushed for the inclusion of Orac, Zen and Servalan.

 

  • The story was renamed Warship and was released as a 2-disc special edition with behind-the-scenes features.

 

  • A novelisation was also released as an e-book that was four times the length of the original script.

 

  • Jenna's Story (Steve Lyons) and Blake's Story (Mark Wright/Cavan Scott) were subsequently released as part of the Liberator Chronicles: Volume 6. Anghelides provided a replacement script for Galactic War called Incentive.
