Down to the last 40m. Since series season is beginning, I saw only during Friday night, but I am liking the show so far. The all si-fi/supernatural thing! Plus Joanna Lumley, with a blue see trough dress in some angles/shots(, ah the 70's)!

And you know, one can think that, that universe is almost the same one of Doctor Who, with the so call "elements" could be Time Lords/ladys CIA agents!

We never truly know who they are and who they work for, what we do know is they move in when the corridor of time is breached by time and other things. Steel complains in one episode we should be there before things happen which Sapphire answers who is going to sit around for years waiting. We know there are two groups operators Investigators move in first and if needed the specialists like Silver are called in. We also know there is another group known as the Transuranics who are a higher power and not keen on the likes of Sapphire and Steel. See Adventure Six for the show down.



The TV series may have ended but Sapphire and Steel made a come back on audio books lasting three seasons and introducing other elements like Gold and Ruby. A mix of classic TV and modern story lines.

Rhodes have you watched The Omega Factor?

10 part series like X-files but without the Aliens, Mind over matter and other odd stories and behind the scenes a secret organization of Omega.



If you like it some good news set 30 years on Big Finish have released four new audio stories starring Louise Jameson who was in the TV series plus Natasha Gerson.

About your first post: yes, I know; I did some research of the series. Will end Adventure 1 today possible and go on (if survive the medical exam of tomorrow)!

>About the Omega Factor, only heard about that, but after Sapphire and Steel, it may be the next thing to watch. If I manage, because from monday, our "bbc entertaiment" like channel RTPMem (Rádio Televisão Portuguesa Memória - portuguese radio and televison memoir) is going to broadcast all X-Files episodes from S01E01 do to the new episodes next year, so...

As I said before some where here in the forum, our TV mainly bought si-fy series from the US (never show Doctor Who - only saw when had cable TV do to BBC prime and it was in 1995...). Space 1999 is one exception in science fiction and possible the kids shows (my father liked stringray and thunderbirds)!
