Throughout the course of the series Blake's crew found themselves visiting many different planets often placing themselves in mortal danger in the process.

Filming of these alien environments was done on location in areas throughout the UK.

On this page we have compiled a list of filming locations and have noted what they were used for. These have been grouped under the following areas :-

Surrey
Berkshire
London
Oxfordshire
Bristol & Somerset
Dorset
