Sapphire and Steel - The Complete Series
The spiritual precursor to The X-Files, SAPPHIRE & STEEL is one of the most atmospheric, mysterious and compelling television programs ever made. Joanna Lumley (Ab Fab, Cold Comfort Farm) and David McCallum (The Man From U.N.C.L.E.) star as alien investigators sent to earth to monitor and police ruptures in time. Defying convention at every turn, SAPPHIRE & STEEL spread six adventures over 34 episodes, keeping viewers constantly in suspense and heightening the tension with its distinctively claustrophobic sets (only one tale used any location footage), stark lighting and ethereal music. Combined with the deeply ambiguous stories, this created a distinctly unsettling and riveting experience. Now, SAPPHIRE & STEEL is ready to capture the minds of a new generation of fans with this comprehensive DVD collection, which features every moody minute of the revolutionary show.

Great return of this off beat Sci-Fi British program on DVD, following the tradition of the classic Dr. Who series.

Great Science Fiction!
rating: 5
This complex Bristish series demonstrates what can be done on a low budget with great writing and excellent actors. The lovely Joanna Lumley and devastatingly handsome David McCallum have great chemistry as Sapphire and Steel. The adventures take a while to get through, but it is well worth the effort. My only caveat would be--don't watch the last adventure alone!

Must Have DVDs for Classic British Collection
rating: 5
Sapphire and Steel shows just how good British Science Fiction was back in the day. It is well written and the acting is superb. Even though it was presented as a series of episodes, I had to watch each story start to finish; it is like that great book you just can't put down.
The effects are silly, especially when they intently chase a dot of light up the stairs and back, but it is the stories themselves that one watches for anyway. As with all great series, I felt saddened when it was over and wished that there was maybe just 1 more tale out there. Alas, this is all there is!
