Title: Classic British Sci-Fi
Review: I was very pleased with the picture quality of this set. One minor complaint: the episodes are not arranged by airdate but at random, so I got the play list off IMBD and am watching them in order of broadcast. Fans of American style SciFi beware: the Brits do it a bit differently. Think of a combination of 70's Dr. Who, the Avengers, and the Prisoner. The series takes itself a little over-seriously, could have used more humor (Barry Morse tried to lighten things up in season one) but it's great fun to watch Martin Landau chew up the scenery and interact so convincingly with Barbara Bain, his real-life wife. And then it's always a pleasure to watch the acting of the British cast and guest stars. One last point: the special effects are very good for that time but may disappoint a generation accustomed to CGI.
