I have the Network DVD. The print quality is mediocre. The color skews to a dull yellow/green. Sound mix: The audio of the dialogue is low while the music is too loud so I'm constantly adjusting the volume. Technically, it's a disappointment but the series is enjoyable even if there is too much hitting people over the head with a cosh. This is such a tired plot point by lazy writers to this day. The American executives were right about giving Forrest a female assistant. Sue Lloyd was perfect casting. She talks about the show in a DVD extra but this was a major dissapointment. She never discusses Cordelia's relationship with The Baron or her character's place in TV heroine history. Her character was believable, not a superwoman. She would become fatigued escaping with The Baron from villains or make errors in judgement. However the Network DVD of The Champions is beautiful, with vibrant, rich colors. The worst episode is Countdown with Edward Woodward playing a posh villain. The plot was okay but action was stupid such as Mannering punching out the baddie but not taking his pistol away so naturally the criminal wakes up and starts shooting at him.
