The second season of Blakes 7 begins on a tense note, as the crew loses control of the space vessel Liberator. It turns out that the ship is now being guided by the Altas, the female race that originally built it. With Blake (Gareth Thomas) and his comrades imprisoned, it is up to the supercomputer Orac to formulate a plan of escape. Literally picking up where the previous season left off, "Redemption" was originally telecast on January 9, 1979. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi
