Those were such stylish a well mannered days, I really miss quality British TV dramas (and films) of this style and standard. Randle and Hopkirk, The Persuaders, The Prisoner and New Avengers were equally excellent.
agreed, rosemary nichols was a 60,s babe, i remember seeing her in some other i.t.c productions from that era but she was never sexier than annabelle hurst....:)
I remember having seen this episode back in 76 in black and white, I never thought I would ever see it again, and in color, what a beautiful goddess she was, and those legs, man I was just a kid back there, no chance at all.
WOW! I'd always ascribed Rosemary Nichols as one of the dowdier female characters in cult TV land (along with Linda Thorson of course). As Peter Wyngarde's character says: 'It's an improvement'. Not dowdy then, but demure.
Rosemary Nicols is absolutely stunning looking and a brilliant actress. Department S more than deserves its cult status. Sha also uses some karate skills in season. We should make a fan club for this wonderful lady! I believe she lives in Malta now...
Sadly, I was out of the country in 1968 and never saw Department S, which - unlike The Persuaders or Randle & Hopkirk - didn't get repeated. It's only recently that I saw this episode on satellite. Watching the series in 2007 I fell in love with the super cute Rosemary Nicols. If only it really was 1968, I'd make an honest woman of her...
You have taste...sheer class and so like the Lovely Linda Thorson who played Tara King in The Avengers. And isn't the incidental music just brilliant too....
I love all this stuff - I grew up with it. Garrison's gueillas, Giddeion's Isle etc

Funny to look back at Peter Wyngarde playing a ladies'man now knowing he is homosexual. It was a very well kept secret back then...Great actor!

Department S was one of the best TV shows around in 1969.
Also had the best theme music.

Here, here. Rosemary Nicols was a beautiful woman, great legs, lovely eyes and mouth. Oh to kiss those lips... Wonder where she is now?

I had this clip on vhs tape at one point, nice to see a good quality version of it. She certainly thinks on her feet!

Thanks Andi. Another great clip, though I've got to wonder, does she always carry a wig with her? If so, that's preparation.
