From the Attic Two Precious Surving 35mm Prints,

ByGlenn CookHALL OF FAMETOP 100 REVIEWERVINE VOICEon 23 September 2012

Format: Blu-ray

Like many people who knew and loved this series when we brought it up in conversation no one seemed to have heard of the series before.
The original series created by Roberta Leigh had thought to have been lost - just like many of the Patrick Troughton Dr Who series. That is except for a scant few episodes.
But on exploring Roberta Leigh's Loft a full collection on 16mm were found along with 2 in 35mm prints.

It is these two episodes that were still on 35mm that have been released on Blu-Ray.
The episodes are 'Mystery on the Moon' and the unforgettable 'The Robot Revolution'

The series really was ahead of it's time.
All the planets and life upon them was allegedly put through a scientific advisor for authentification.

Planetary travel was not the almost instantaneous faster than light travel of other series but rather took many months with the crews being 'put in the freezer' to borrow the series terms but really a believable suspended animation system.
The duties of the crew being placed in the hands of a robot crew.

In the Mystery on the Moon episode earth is being attacked.
Buildings and complexes just explode.
What could be the cause?
The source is a gang who are threatening to blow up complexes using a laser beam wepon.
The beam is located on the moon and is well protected by natural overhanging rocks making an all out attack suicidal and futile.
Larry Dart and and crew come up with a plan aided by the quick thing and genius Professor Haggerty.
As Col Raeburn says he's a genius and Irish a dangerous combination!!

Of course the solution is simple- reflect the ray back along to its source.
Wonderful and a geniuine scientific solution to a problem.
The science aspect was always a strenghth of the Space Patrol storylines.

The Robot revolution one of the episodes presented here has always stuck in my mind.
I think it was the genuine menace of Robots running amok!

Robots work on the seabead harvesting the rich sea farms (very farfeached and believable) seweed being harvested for human consumption. Naturally the robots are able to work at very deep depths and at hign pressue. They have the added advantage over humans in that they don't require oxygen.

An element in sea water reacts with their brains and a componant responsable for controlling them fails.

Now the real magic for me as a child of six was that the image of a whole army of robots was created with just 3 different robot puppets- all slightly different!
I really would encourage you to invest in the complete series.Space Patrol : The Complete Series (6 Disc Set)

It really is wonderful.

I can really recommend that you seek out the full series.

A Guilty Fav.

ByMark H. Townsendon 21 June 2014 - Published on Amazon.com

Verified Purchase

This series was run in America as "Planet Patrol" in the early 1960s. I remembered seeing this as a child on WPIX-11 from New York City. It is a puppet show like Gerry Anderson's shows such as "Thunderbirds," " Supercar," "Stongray," and "Captain Scarlet." In fact it was amde by a producer who oroginally worked for Gerry Anderson. While not as well made as the Anderson series it still has a charm and a presence that's entertaining after all these years. One does have to respect the effort and workmanship that went into making this series in a era long before computer generated imagery made things at a puch of a button.
For those who appreciate old nearly forgottten TV shows... this is a gem. If you like modern stuff ....meh, just turn your cable TV on.

Charming, Influential Puppet Show

ByDavid Lee-Smithon 26 August 2014 - Published on Amazon.com

Verified Purchase

This charming British puppet show inspired J. Michael Straczynki's "Babylon 5." Predating the original "Star Trek," its cast included a female communications officer (Marla of Venus) and a Venusian officer on Galasphere 347 who was higly intelligent and had pointed ears (Slim). The varied plots include a robot rebellion on Earth, a Neptunian cloud of metallic particles to block the sun from Earth, and an asteroid on a collision course with the capitol of Mars. I enjoyed this 39 episode series as much as any of Gerry and Sylvia Anderson's puppet shows. If you enjoy puppetry, try "Space Patrol" (which was broadcast under the title "Planet Patrol" in the United States to avoid confusion with the 1950's American TV series "Space Patrol).

Still lots of fun to watch

BySkyhawkon 11 September 2014 - Published on Amazon.com

Verified Purchase

OK, OK, it's a little silly. And not up to the standards of Gerry Anderson, but still lots of fun to watch.

I like the secretary from Venus. She is very efficient and not bad looking (puppet wise anyway). If you watched these shows as a kid you will certainly enjoy seeing them again. Small children will enjoy the shows as well. As for teenagers, it will go completely “over their heads”.

The series was made at a time when Western civilization (incorrectly) assumed that man would progress out into space. I remember the early and mid-1960s well. Almost everyone was “space happy”.

I suspect that these DVDs are “homemade”. No problem in that, as the shows are now probably in the "public domain". Excellent picture and sound. All the DVDs played reliably.

This is a rare gem!

ByCharles S. Snyderon 4 November 2014 - Published on Amazon.com

Verified Purchase

This is one series that I wanted to get my hands on as this was one of my favorite shows I watched as a little boy. The set contains all the episodes plus a bonus feature. The video and sound quality is exactly as was presented back in the early 60's, not great but adequate to watch again. The chapters present remarkable accuracy in terms of science as it was known then plus moral lessons to be learned, ie. lying ans stealing is wrong and controlling one's temper. For the price, it can't be beat ($49.00)
