I liked your review Brimfin, you seem to have got what this show is about already. Yes CW does seem to have hypnosis powers, and Richard Carpenter throughout leaves it open to wonder if CW 's powers are hypnotic, magic ,or just coincidence. There's some lovely lines in this show and you picked...

Where do you stand on the issue of Gan and his limiter? Is he really a psycho? When he tried to strangle Cally the limiter wasn't causing him pain, he was smiling, as if getting a kick out of it.

Peter Sallis was good in this, and I thought the well scene was funny. " I can see no stone, but just little stars" Sam will get an episode about him, an episode where Catweazle lands him in trouble with the law. As always Carpenter leaves it to our interpretation as to whether its all...

Sam Woodyard is an employee of George Bennett at Hexwood Farm , he lives with his aged mother in a nearby cottage, and when we see her you can understand Sam wanting to spend as much time as possible at Hexwood! And as Catweazle will remind anyone who gets it wrong, his pet Touchwood is a toad.

I agree with Doctor Omega, you have to view it in the same spirit of fun that it was made, without dissecting the minutiae of the show. It could be a lot of fun doing this. You can get something out of this show if you relax the adult side of your perspective a bit, but it's a sort of self...

Good first episode dealing with how governments can manipulate secret services for political ends. Burnside is a great character wonderfully played by Roy Marsden. Bob Sherman as the dishevelled CIA man Ross is also good. Other regulars include Deputy Chief Peele played by Jerome Willis ...

Opening episode of a show that is a must for any Callan fans. The Director of Operations of the S.I.S. has to mount a rescue operation of Norwegian scientists who have crashed 30 miles inside Russia. Neil Burnside the director (D-ops) fails to convince his masters that this mission is madness...

There's an interesting subtext here that you may have missed, but at the same time not missed ..Yes Gan when seemingly calm attacks Cally, the limiter is not giving him pain at this point so why do it? There is one explanation, Gan as seen up to now has only been rational because of the...

New Zealand is famous for the number of sheep it has, an incredible number of both black and white sheep. The ratio of sheep per capita is extraordinary. But why do the white sheep in New Zealand eat more than the black ones? Answer;

Outside a room on the wall are three numbered light switches that operate three light bulbs inside the room. The door is solid with no window in it. Is it possible to identify which switch operates each bulb ? You may only enter the room ONCE after doing whatever you want with the switches and...

Well, I remember well you enjoyed Kolchak, obviously we had some duffers there among the episodes, so I went onto TMDb to check your overall rating. It was 6.4 that's LESS THAN STAR COPS!!! Please explain this discrepancy, if you can. As for comfort zones, I will be more critical of a show...

Well three of my favourite Prisoner episodes are in the first 6 eps, so that would shoot up the average. But if I had a choice , that being I could only ever see two of the three shows again, it would be goodbye Star Cops, two totally inventive and unique shows like The Prisoner and UFO I...

Also of course The Sages aren't a stable group. New members come , others go from show to show. All we can say is that the particular Sages at this particular time for this particular show had a higher satisfaction rate than any previous Sages for a previous show. I like Star Cops , but I...

Did you know Asimov wrote detective fiction and even had his own Poirot of sorts. Check it out here. https://www.imdforums.com/threads/asimov-the-black-widowers.3074/

Great episode as McGoohan plays a double role. Originally he wanted both 6 and 12 to wear identical garb so even the audience couldn't tell them apart. But it was decided it would be too confusing for everyone. The only episode where rover is so named. Anton Rodgers was a good number 2, and ITC...

Sorry you hated this show, I suppose it's a cultural thing. If you're used to fast paced American shows and grown up on them then this is a different world. But I don't think it makes Star Cops less worthy, just different. Brimfin an American enjoyed it as are most others here, so it's all a...

That's because Giroc blinded Blake with psychedelic lights. She revelled in death unlike Sinofar who seemed to represent peace and diplomacy and realised Blake passed the test by stating he would have enjoyed killing Travis and therefore refrained from doing so. Travis just can't see this, his...
