I remember it from when I was 13 years old and had managed to get an old 405
line TV set working and used to watch SR in my bedroom late at night. As another

and IMO it IS worth getting even if you didn't see it when originally broadcast.

Network did a particularly good restoration job on this set. Also worth buying
to see the gorgeous Anneke Wills in some pretty short skirts! ;-)

Aagh! Every time I learn something new... it pushes something old out of my brain!
