Movie/TV TitleSapphire And Steel - Assignments 1-3
It's an oldie but a goody , first assignment seemed slow to me even back in the Seventies but assignments 2 and 3 made up for that. The characters still appeal and it is really good to see the two leads in their prime polishing their acting skills.
It's a classic of late 70's early 80's British Sci-Fi with a nice transfer onto DVD
.
Drama suitable for all ages with some parental advisory.
Unique late 1970s and early 1980s surreal drama starring David McCallum (Man From Uncle) and Joanna Lumley (The New Avengers, Absolutely Fabulous).
They are agents of chemical continuum who solve and repair situations. It amounts to a detective drama of periodic specifications with other 'elements' making an appearance.
Suspend disbelief and be entertained.
