Did they?

I know there was talk of repeating but I don't remember seeing them.

My exposure to B7 came from buying all the videos in the 90's!
It was repeated on BBC 2 on Saturday afternoons in March/April 2000. They only showed Blakes 7 series one.

They show stuff like Wonder Woman, Incredible Hulk, Xena and Hercules all the time so it's more a Cult channel these days..... Not that there's anything thing wrong with that of course.... only last year they showed The Wild Wild West, a western/spy drama with a lot of steampunk elements in it
Yeah, it's more of a sci-fi channel than horror, but the name Sci-Fi Channel was already taken (being the former name of Syfy). They could've got away with calling it CBS Sci-Fi though (the other former Zone channels now have CBS branding, Horror was the only one that didn't take on that brand).

Obviously wanting the viewers then.

Blake's 7 would be a good one for the weekday mid-afternoon BBC2 slot where they're currently showing old drama and sitcoms. As with the 2000 repeat, it might be that audiences don't grab hold of it, as maybe sci-fi is a bit too "niche" in comparison with a lovely costume drama.
