    Review The Avengers (1961)

    That would be great but only the deep in the seat fans will lay out for one show and a few extras surely unless there is a lot more in the package? JB

    Fun Star Trek: The Next Generation (1987)

    Review The Incredible Hulk (1978)

    I've lent the series for my wife to watch as she's never really seen it and never understood it's following! Sadly though she only reached the third episode before giving up. Although she did tell me she would come back to it later..never..maybe..well... JB

    Review The Avengers (1961)

    The Avengers became a must see show when Diana Rigg became Emma Peel! The show was just a weekly spy drama until she came onboard but when she did it gave the show a mystical charm of an England that has never existed or ever will! The New Avengers tried to recapture that spirit but somehow...

    Review Lost in Space (1965)

    One of my favourites from childhood and still to this day I love the sound of The Jupiter's engines as it reaches light speed (They borrowed it for Planet of The Apes (1968) and The Time Tunnel)I adored Dr.Smith and his outrageous plans to return to earth each and every week despite what that...

    Review The Bionic Woman (1976)

    I loved The Six Million Dollar Man as a kid and The Bionic Woman! The best episode has to be The Seven Million Dollar Man, where another man is badly injured and upgraded to bionic technology but he can't handle the pressure and begins to enjoy hurting people! Steve has to stop him before he...

    Review The Persuaders (1971)

    I used to love this show as a kid and remember rewatching it when off work with the flu! In fact I wouldn't go back until it had finished! Ha,Ha,Ha! Recently I saw it again on True Entertainment and then went out and bought it on DVD and it cost me £39 in HMV! Boy do they know how to charge! JB

    Review V (1983)

    The first two parter was excellent and the music for the next three parter was very catchy! The series was not that good as I remember with the makeup costs having been greatly reduced and the stories being more or less similar to a soap opera! The last episode left us with a cliffhanger that...

    Review Journey to the Unknown (1968)

    I remember these being reshown on the ITV Network in the eighties! I used to video them for the whole family to watch the following evening but sadly I never kept any of them! JB

    Review Logan's Run (1977)

    It was a great series, Alex! Groundcars for The Sandmen and The Solar Craft for Logan, Jessica and Rem to escape to each and every week! Sadly it wasn't a hit in the US and quickly cancelled! JB

    Review Fantastic Journey (1977)

    Why don't they bring this classic out on DVD? I remember loving it back in 77 on BBC1 and taping the repeats soundtracks in the Christmas holidays! The episode Funhouse was never shown on the BBC and the first time I ever saw it was on YouTube a few years back! Great music and stories! JB

    Review Logan's Run (1977)

    I remember seeing this show on Sunday afternoons on ATV back in 78 I believe! I'd never seen the film or knew anything much about it but after I learned exactly what a Sandman was I became a fan from that day to this! I waited patiently for the series to come out on DVD although I had recorded...

    Review Babylon 5 (1994)

    This is one show I resisted for years due to most people I knew warning me off it! But I started to watch it in the nineties on Sci-Fi and enjoyed it enough to collect the series first on VHS and then DVD! A few years back I discovered that one of my favourite episodes, The Fall of Centauri...

    Review The Tripods (1984)

    I remember watching the first series back in 84 and liking it but not greatly. The acting was not that good and I didn't see series two the following year but in the nineties I bought the four videos of the first series off a market and really enjoyed them! I bought a bootleg of series 2 on DVD...

    Review Kenny Everett

    I liked the Thames series a lot but it wasn't until he switched to the BBC and he brought in Cleo Rocos that I really became a fan! JB
