Detectives and master criminals come together for the first time in a DVD box set as Pegasus Entertainment Ltd presents 'The Best Of Classic British TV - Crime Series' featuring episodes from four nostalgic TV shows of the early 60s.
Saber Of London
The long running TV series proved a hit with audience on both sides of the Atlantic under various titles including 'Detective's Dairy' and 'The Vise'. Whatever the title, the hit show featured the crime-solving exploits of the gallant and charming one-armed private investigator, who greeted his viewers with the famous words 'I'm Mark Saber - and this is London'.
Man From Interpol
'Crime is international but so is the law'.
The series plotted the globetrotting adventures of Anthony Smith, the man from Interpol, as he sort to bring master criminals from all corners of the world to justice. Special attache to Scotland Yard, Agent Smith proved a charismatic and adaptable crime fighter as no one knew where in the world evil would strike next.
Tales Of Edgar Wallace
Based on the works of English crime writer Edgar Wallace, the series was updated adaptations of his stories, with each episode providing an unusual mystery to be solved. A celluloid penny dreadful, the stories twisted and turned at a fabulous pace keeping the armchair detectives guessing until the very end.
Scotland Yard
Introduced by novelist and broadcaster Edgar Lustgarten, the series focused on cases from the records room of the most famous police force in the world, Scotland Yard. Regular viewers were drawn into a murky world of mystery, murder and mayhem as each episode explained or helped to solve a hideous crime.
