en.wikipedia.org(UK_TV_series)
A bit like “The Avengers” in a way but does not have any of the kinky humor at the start & finish of the show. Each show uses a completes 'new' set of actors/actress, Unlike many TV shows such as Dangerman, The avengers, Man from UNCLE etc you know that the main actors/actress will come out alive at the end to do next weeks episode.

There are some very good well done stories unlike The Avengers could almost be taken for true stories. The first story I watched was “Lady Killer” with Barbara Felton Agent 99 from Get Smart, all the way through it was suspense, then I cracked up laughing right at the end, but none of the other show were so funny just B***y good entertainment compared to what you get on free to air TV these days.

Nothing wrong with watching a bit of British thriller humour.

1308490 2012-10-25 01:32:00 Ah yes ... Diana Rigg was the subject of many teenage boy fantasies (and I suspect many older men's, too). Especially after an unfruitful "weakend". WalOne (4202)
1308491 2012-10-25 02:00:00 You mean you watch that stuff with a weak end at the weekend? Zippity (58)

Applies only to the 24/2 dribble dished up for the television viewers, On Saturday & Sunday. Any other meaning is only superfluous.

1308494 2012-10-25 19:03:00 Who the hell is "Theodore Vaughan Spotter" when he's at home?

And why is he specifically mentioning the +1 stations, when all they do is repeat, at an hour's delay, what played on the main station of the same name?

It's free, anyway - you get the quality you pay for. So quit complaining.
