For those to whom this name is unfamiliar, it’s a 25-year old British sci-fi series, with all the hokey special effects and production values of Dr. Who, but with great stories and interesting characters.
Cult TV desciibes it thus: “Terry Nation’s great gift to the sci-fi genre, the story of a motley group of outlaw revolutionaries led by a patriot-hero who fight the fascistic Federation (motto: ‘Strength from Unity’) in the second century of the third calendar.”
…and it’s coming back as a feature film, with Paul Darrow reprising his role as Avon.
