BACKGROUND

A fantastic series where we find three agents who work for an offshoot of Interpol called 
Department S which investigates cases that would baffle everyone else. 
Leading the organisation is flamboyant writer Jason King who always would come up 
with outlandish theories about the cases they are assigned to. King could be easily be 
challenged by Stewart Sullivan who dismissed most of his ideas whilst Annabelle Hurst 
would cover each case with a scientific approach. 

This really was a terrific show and was doing the weird plots years before The X-Files and
Twin Peaks. Created by Monty Norman and Dennis Spooner, this highly inventive series
was their shining hour.
