Sapphire & Steel

Sapphire and Steel fans, make yourselves known. You will be contacted.

(And I'm talking big fans - you reference it in casual conversation; you speculate about what happened next; you either own episodes or you've seen them multiple times. I'm talking love here, people.)

I'm a big fan of Sapphire and Steel. :D

The faceless guy who hid in photos creeped me out as a kid. My favourite was probably the railway station with the ghosts and the Darkness, though. :)

Sapphire and Steel was the shit.

They were pretty damn cool. They're kinda slow on viewing now - but there was some scary stuff in there. The guy in the photographs with no face still scares the bejesus out of me now.

Yes, me!

I've only seen the episodes once through each, but I like them a lot and have played in an ongoing one-off based around "Diamond and Tin".

I also want Joanna Lumley's blue silk knickerbockers.

I agree with everything Jenni said!

Except I don't really want the blue silk knickerbockers myself. I think they'd look good on Jenni though.

I also played in the game and own the DVD's and sometimes channel Steel...

I have the DVDs; and I have to say, many of the stories are still pretty damn spooky. The first one might still be my favourite, if only because I admire their ability to make a spot of light spooky. :)

You Tube has a couple of good scenes to help whet the appetite.

Really liked the one set in the train station with the nursery rhyme.

I'm a huge fan of S&S, have been for years. Bought the DVD boxed set not so long about, and was pleasently surprised just how ell the show stands up a brazilion years later. I still reread the novelisation of Adventure 1 every so often, and last year my wife even bought me a copy of the one and only S&S annual. Recently I've been enjoying the audio dramas from Big Finish, which I heartily recommend.
