Bring them Back!

I am a fan of Sapphire and Steel. (Filmed on the soundstage next to the Muppet Show one, apparently!)
Two of my favourite shows from my youth.
Now if Sooty and Sweep were filmed on another nearby soundstage, I believe that would be perfection with a crispy crust...

Sapphire and Steel... now there's a show that deserves to be looked at again. If only someone would make a really good movie with those characters - I even believe they could still use Joannna Lumley and David McCallum! (Last I knew, the series ended with them stuck in a time loop, and the next season never eventuated, so bring them out of the box, I say!)

It was the X-files of its time, and was responsible for giving me an irrational fear of spots of light and deep-freezes, until I turned 12, and saw some re-runs where all was made clear!
Lordy knows how old I was when I first watched it. 6? 7?

Great show. Great use of minimal effects - something that should be retained.
