Yes, they might have wanted Daleks and the Fourth Doctor on Blake's 7, but the plain truth is: it did not happen. We should not take this "they wanted X thing to happen" as arguments for inclusion any more than deleted scenes of TV episodes or any other unreleased story.

The only thing which seems to "connect" the DWU and B7U is Carnell. However, quoting User:SOTO on Thread:207769, "Usually, when an outside character is used in a work of Doctor Who, we only cover the character's DWU appearances, and give information outside of that only in the 'behind the scenes' and 'external links' sections.". If there are no other, stronger, "connections" between B7 and DWU, I'd say we should just cover Carnell the way we do, and add a link to the characters page at Blake's 7 wiki.

Agreed
