Forgotten Brilliant Mid-Sixties Detective Drama Series
8 January 2023
Wonderfully. Interesting sixties detective series forgotten by time.

I too have only became aware of this show in the last year courtesy of channel gem here downunder, The stories revolve around the keeping of smooth ship traffic along the St Laurance canal which - connects the great lakes of north America to the Atlantic ocean.

Most of the episode are quite interesting with twists in the tail and the plots are often not as predictable as a lot of series from this time period are.

The only major letdown with this series are the episodes made in colour ( or should that be color? ) with an American CIA character - to try and sell to the Yanks of course - They are rather average compared to the quality of other episodes.

The series confronts many issues of the time ( some still relevant ) with an honest and modern approach which is surprising considering when it was made, especially the episode - The Only Good Indian.

Overall if you like to travel back to another world in the 1960's with action and adventure it's not a bad choice.

I.
