The Strange Case of the Missing Episodes - The Lost Stories of the Avengers Series 1

The Strange Case of the Missing Episodes - The Lost Stories of the Avengers Series 1

Alan Hayes
0/5 ( ratings)
How David Keel and John Steed became THE AVENGERS...
The lost stories of the classic television series retold.

In the mid-Sixties, The Avengers proved itself to be a cultural phenomenon. Despite its quintessential Englishness, it transcended international barriers, and established itself as British television?s most successful export of the day.

Today, it remains hugely popular, perhaps because of the schizophrenic nature of the show as it developed; it was a series of many colours, with something for everyone. But the earliest episodes of the show have, since their 1961 broadcast, disappeared from view, the vast majority of the recordings lost forever.

The Strange Case of the Missing Episodes lifts the lid on that first year, and retells the stories in extended synopsis form, covering twenty-four episodes, often with script extracts, in greater depth than ever before. The book also boasts a detailed introduction, which explores how these much sought after programmes came to be lost, and a detailed retelling of an alternative, untransmitted version of the episode Double Danger.

THIS BOOK HAS BEEN SUPERCEDED AND IS NOW REVISED AND REPUBLISHED IN 'TWO AGAINST THE UNDERWORLD'. THIS VERSION AVAILABLE AT A BARGAIN LOW PRICE.
