Space 1999

This futuristic series was shot at Pinewood Studios.

It was quoted as the most expensive British TV series
made in the UK (at the time). 

One critic described it a Kubrick’s 2001 every week!

Among my many roles on the show was as Producer for series one, it was a great
experience and you can read more about my time on Space 1999 in My FAB Years.

It attracted guest artists such as Joan Collins as
Kara, Christopher Lee as Captain Zandor,
Peter Cushing as Raan, and Richard Johnson
as Lee Russell to name just a few.

Martin Landau played Commander John Koenig
and Barbara Bain who played Doctor Helena
Russell were fresh from their Mission Impossible
triumph.

Barry Morse who played Professor Victor Bergman was also well known for his
sinister role of Lieutenant Philip Gerardin in the The Fugitive television series.
