Absolutely brilliant! What distinguished Sapphire & Steel was the reliance on good writing, direction and drama rather than flimsy 'futuristic' sets. It actually looks like they're using the old Upstairs, Downstairs set! LOL. And I don't mean that badly. It was all much more psychological and imaginative.

This morning I was telling to my family about an experience that happen in 1985 in Mexico city when I saw the same lights patches in a house, I mention them about this series and a million thanks for posting, now my family know what I was talking about. When I saw this series I was a child and I did not realize how dangerous it cuould be when I saw the lights patches that seem like they were alive.

@minionarcane Lol ! Correction: I meant Fox Mulder & Dana Scully of X-Files.

I never got to understand bout the duo until youtube came into existence & i found this vdo. That is ... after 30 over yrs later. If i never found this vdo, i'd be without some answers for my memory. Before i found this, i scrummaged through other sites to learn a lil more that Sapphire & Steel were like Fox & Mulder. However, now i finally learnt the truth. THEY'RE ALIENS!!! Loved the chills it gave when i watched it during my childhood days although never really understood why.
