Adam Adamant Lives!
Feb. 4th, 2014 11:20 pmAgain care of the wonderful N and S.
It's a very silly show, in the good way.
I think S's words were "I thought this'd be right up your street," and it was.
The set-up, for those who don't know far too much about '60s TV, is Edwardian adventurer is frozen in 1902 and unfrozen in the 1960s. Adventures ensue.
( And it's great fun )
The thing that struck me was how modern it felt, so S and I were inventing a reboot. So far he's nixed my idea of Harry from Silent Witness as Adam Adamant, but we've agreed to have him waking up in the 2000s and having Mark Gatiss as the butler. Admittedly, since he's the narrator of the documentary featurette on the DVDs, so we thought that it wouldn't be difficult to convince him.
