Tanith Lee's hero was called Parl Dro. :) Jenny Pausacker wrote him into her Quentaris novel, as an actor who helped the heroine. Avon - or Paul Darrow - seems to be all over the place!

So much that she wrote Kill The Dead as a tribute to him. The hero was a very Avon-like character. And she was a lot older than fourteen at the time! ;-)Sue Bursztynskihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09362273418897882971noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27643523.post-27313011250119355512016-12-21T14:15:44.991-08:002016-12-21T14:15:44.991-08:00I was absolutely thrilled by Blake's 7 when I ...I was absolutely thrilled by Blake's 7 when I was about fourteen, I used to sneak out of bed to watch it. I was madly in love with Avon, oh dear, not a good role model!<br /><br />It's sad that Gareth Thomas is gone, and thanks for the career summary -- I think I only ever saw him in Blake's 7, but it's good to know he had a full career outside the show!A latte beckonshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12967372772145537800noreply@blogger.com
