Every bit as good a mystery as Jeremy Brett's Sherlock Holmes. My only complaint is that they didn't tap Edward Petherbridge for a few more Wimsey stories while they were at it.

If you feel the need to get involved in the best sci-fi television series ever broadcast with a forty-year history (26 (now 27!) year broadcasting history), here is a good place to start...

Buy new: $20.49 / Used from: $23.93
...or possibly here ...
Doctor Who: Spearhead from SpaceDoctor Who: Spearhead from Space
Buy new: $12.99 / Used from: $6.82
... or even here. Fair warning, though: this is not high-budget sci-fi, but it's addictive nontheless. The new Doctor Who series is (or looks) high-budget but who knows when it will be available here.
Good Neighbors - The Complete Series 1-3Good Neighbors - The Complete Series 1-3
