Adam Adamant Lives

Adam Adamant Lives was a television series that ran from 1966 to 1967 on the BBC. The show was the BBC's attempt to repeat the success of ITV's The Avengers, with a comedy adventure theme.

The main character, Adam Adamant, was a Victorian Gentleman Adventurer frozen in a block of ice by his arch-nemesis The Face and revived in 1966. Adam was rescued by a typical swinging sixties chick called Georgina Jones and he soon became embroiled in the criminal world of the 1960s.

Adam Adamant Lives starred Gerald Harper as Adam Adamant, Juliet Harmer as Miss Georgina Jones, Jack May as William E. Simms, and Peter Ducrow as The Face. The show was created by Sydney Newman and produced by Verity Lambert (also the creator and first producer respectively of Doctor Who).
