From Paul Cornell's twitter feed, I discovered that BBC Radio 3, 4, and 7 are kicking off a season of science fiction radio programming airing over the next couple of weeks.
I'm particularly interested in checking out The Scarifyers (starring Terry Molloy and Nicholas Courtney, who've done great work on Doctor Who in TV and audio format), The Sofa of Time, and the adaptation of Iain M. Banks's State of the Art (which I think was adapted by Paul Cornell).
If you haven't already heard them, I recommend the new Blake's 7 series. It won't please all fans of the original series - they've very deliberately kept some elements of the original show and jettisoned others - but it's well worth a listen. I posted a review of the first episode, Rebel, a while back.
You can stream all of these programs over the internet on BBC iPlayer when they're broadcast or up to 7 days afterward.
