Philip revisits short-lived but well-loved time-travel TV series featuring Joanna Lumley and David McCallum, Sapphire & Steel… Transuranic, heavy elements may not be used where there is life.
Sapphire and Steel have been assigned.
Little background is given to the two agents, though they are certainly extra-terrestrial in origin.
Most notable of these are super-humanly strong Lead and technician Silver (both of whichareelements).
Thames lost interest and it was instead picked up by ATV in the Midlands.
Despite the comparative lack of material, the series is destined to be well-respected in the genre.
Here, Time doesnt take the form of a plot mechanic as it often can in science-fiction.
