Rating: 
Released to mark ITV’s 50th Year, this double CD collection contains many of the landmark ratings grabbers of the day including, ‘The Avengers’, ‘The Saint’, ‘The Sweeney and ‘The Prisoner’. Particularly interesting is the amount of space given over to American series, such ‘The Streets Of San Francisco’, ‘Hawaii Five-O’ and ‘Dragnet’, all of which made a mark on British television at a time (generally the 1970s) when home grown drama was far less common. The lack of liner notes may let it down but this is a great collection, perfect for retro addicts.
