Jan Chappell grew up in South London and trained at RADA, graduating with an honours diploma and the Kendal and Jenny Laird Prizes. During her long and successful career, Blake’s 7 proved to be both an eventful and fortuitous casting… giving her valuable experience in a long-running drama series and helping her through the early years of bringing up her son, Sam. Nicholas Briggs chats to JAN about her career before and after Blake’s 7 and her memories of working on the cult-tv series. This Myth Makers was shot entirely at Quex Park, the location for the Blake’s 7 story BOUNTY… except when it was raining and everyone went indoors!
