Sapphire and Steel (original series) part deux
I finished the rest of the original assignments. I really liked the one at the train station, and the one about the virus. Not so sure about Lead in the first one, but of course I love Silver.
I take back what i said about Joanna Lumley being detached, but i think Susannah Harker's Sapphire is more emotional/involved. Lumley's a great actress though, taking very seriously what had to be difficult acting circumstances.
I also think Steel needs to be used better in the audios, and was used better in season 2 than season 1, but McCallum's Steel is superb. What a hard bastard he is. Warner's is the one that sticks in my mind, of course, being my first Steel, but i will always see McCallum, even when I listen to Warner talk.
I think both the audios and the show are superb in every way, and such a contrast to New Who and such shows. And yet just as interesting and engaging, if not more so!
edited: I even made a S&S logo icon that's a mix of the old show's sapphire and steel ball thingys, and the new logo and Big Finish on it. Yay me. Totally gankable if anyone wants it.
