DVD

"Secret Service" is the last, and les known Supermarionation series created by Gerry and Sylvia Anderson. Counting only 13 episodes, the series related the adventures of Father Stanley Unwin (played by... Stanley Unwin) a crack secret agent (!!!!!!!!) and his gardener Matthew, whom, with the help of a very neat invention, can be reduced to the size of a midget doll and be carried around in a suitcase... The series might be of interest for Captain Scarlet fans, as some episodes featured the Scarlet puppet, in the role of mild-mannered agent Paul Blake... Many other puppets, who starred in "Captain Scarlet", made appearances in this series.
