| Paul Darrow on TV 8th June + Radio awards |
 Paul Darrow on TV 8th June 2008 + helps Jack FM win Silver at Sony Awards 2008
TV: Paul will be a featured interviewee on ’50 Greatest TV Endings’ hosted by Cilla Black, to be broadcast on Sky One on Saturday 8th June 2008. No prizes for guessing the TV ending he will be discussing…
RADIO: Paul and the 106 JACK fm Radio team were at the annual Sony Awards at the Grosvenor House Hotel, London on 12th May for the annual Sony Radio Academy Awards, as JACK fm had been nominated in the category Best Station Imaging, one of the Production awards.
This category is designed to recognise the overall sound of a station or network. Rather than any specific programming style, the judges consider the effective selection and co-ordination of liners, jingles, trailers and other presentation tools in establishing a distinctive audio brand or identity.
The judges obviously agreed with us that having Paul as the ‘voice’ of JACK fm was indeed inspired casting as they won the Silver Award, saying: 'Great writing that conveys a huge number of ideas, always fresh yet always on-brief and highly talk-able; just what you need when you're new on the dial. Inspired casting of Paul Darrow and lovely voice direction of his performance.'
Listen to 106 JACK fm HERE and click on READ MORE for more information about the awards and the ceremony.

| Proposed Blake's 7 revival in the news as Sky TV commissions scripts from B7 Media |
 Proposed Blake's 7 Revival hits the news as SKY commissions scripts...
News hit the UK National Press on 24th April 2008 that SKY has commissioned scripts for two x 60-minute pilot episodes which, if successful, will be expanded into a series. Sky has suggested a 6-part series, though other sources suggest that an American backer of the project would prefer this to be longer (13 or more episodes.)
This proposed TV series would be a re-imagining of the original series, as were the new audio adventures produced in 2007 by B7 Productions. Andrew Mark Sewell, co-founder/producer of Blake's 7 Media, told Horizon (during a conversation at the October 2007 Cult TV Festival) that each production would have its own distinct identity, with the proposed new TV series being different from the audio adventures, which were themselves a re-imagining of the original TV series. However, he did say it was possible that some of the new audio series cast might reprise their roles for the TV re-imagining.
UPDATE 30 April: Stephen Greif was interviewed on the 'Good Evening Wales' programme on BBC Wales on Friday 25th April. You can use the Listen Again feature on the BBC website until Friday 2nd May, and FF using the 15 minutes feature because Stephen's interview is on near the end (about 2 hours and 25 minutes into the show...)
The news has sparked much debate in the Horizon website forums, see/join in the discussion here
