The spiritual precursor to The X-Files, SAPPHIRE & STEEL
is one of the most atmospheric, mysterious and compelling television programs
ever made. Joanna Lumley (Absolutely Fabulous, Cold Comfort Farm) and David McCallum (The Man
From U.N.C.L.E., NCIS) star as alien investigators sent to earth to monitor and police
ruptures in time. Defying convention at every turn, SAPPHIRE & STEEL spread
six adventures over 34 episodes, keeping viewers constantly in suspense and
heightening the tension with its distinctively claustrophobic sets (only one
tale used any location footage), stark lighting and ethereal music. Combined
with the deeply ambiguous stories, this created a distinctly unsettling and
riveting experience. Now, SAPPHIRE & STEEL is ready to capture the minds of
a new generation of fans with this comprehensive DVD collection, which features
every moody minute of the revolutionary show.
