The series that launched a career and inspired a television legend.
The cases of POLICE SURGEON uncovered, described and explored! 'Dr
Brent's Casebook' tells the story of 'Police Surgeon', a
short-lived 1960 television series that gave Ian Hendry (The Lotus
Eaters', 'Get Carter') his first regular starring role. It made its
mark in TV history not for what it was but for what it led to - the
world beating show 'The Avengers'. Unlike its illustrious
successor, 'Police Surgeon' has faded from public memory and has
rarely been revisited for the purposes of research or retrospective
celebration. Richard McGinlay and Alan Hayes now redress the
balance, revealing information about the creation of the series,
its production, transmission and narratives - including the
mysterious 'Diplomatic Immunity', which never appeared in TV
listings - and the circumstances that caused 'Police Surgeon' to be
brought to a sudden end after just 13 weeks.
