This is a simply stunning set. The color and definition will blow you away. Department S, not as well remembered, I suspect, as some of the other British suspense shows of the 60s, takes a back seat to none. Produced by Monte Berman, one of the producers of The Saint, the show sports production values that hold up well today. The music, the clothes are stand out. The plots are intricate and will keep you guessing. And the cast is superb, a trio who work from a special unit of Interpol solving the crimes other agencies have given up on. Joel Fabiano never became a big star, but should have. Rosemary Nicols is superb, brainy as well as dishy. Peter Wyngarde, though, is the cat's meow, playing Jason King, a mod, but classy, witty author of detective stories. He was so good in this part a spin-off show, Jason King, was produced a few years later. Anyone who likes shows like The Saint, The Avengers, Secret Agent, The Champions, and so forth will love this series. Read full review
