Trivia / Blakes Seven S 4 E 8 Games

• Deleted Scene: A model shot of Belkov's ship exploding was left out of the finished episode, resulting in some confusion as to his fate. Also removed at a late stage was a sequence of Scorpio being attacked by the pursuit ships, and references to Mecron 2 being sucked into the black hole.
• Hey, It's That Place!: As well as portraying Mecron 2 in this episode, Winspit Quarry also appeared in the Doctor Who episodes "Destiny of the Daleks" and "The Underwater Menace", as well as John Carter.
• Life Imitates Art: Taking it in turn to play games and solve puzzles in order to get crystals? Did the makers of a certain gameshow get the idea from this episode?
• Recycled Script: This episode borrows elements from "Crystal Gazing", a story in the first Blake's 7 annual (set during mid-to-late first season).
