Reading Peter Hoar's word salad, I think they should just leave Blakes7 as it is. There is undoubtedly going to be the usual race and gender swap BS and I am so tired of this nonsense 😴

I draw the line at a male Servalan

Good analysis. But it will probably be a case of 'let's take this well liked show and make it about something completely different'

The BSG reboot was pretty decent. I am prepared to give this one a chance. If it sucks I'll just walk away. My favourite character from the show was always Avon. I'd be interested to see what they do with him (if they even have the same characters).
