Answer Question

1 Answer - Sort by: Date | Rating

    "Adam Adamant Lives!" was a BBC adventure series screened in 1966-7. The basic idea was time travel; Adam Llewellyn de Vere Adamant (Gerald Harper) is a Victorian gentleman, frozen into a block of ice by a group of villains (one of whom is the woman he loves, and to whom he remains stubbornly loyal.) He is revived when some workmen are drilling deep beneath a London street, and begins a new life in Swinging London. Adam is horrified by the manners and customs of modern Britain, in particular the uninhibited Georgie (Juliet Harmer) who befriends him: when they first meet she is wearing trousers; he assumes she is a boy, and faints away when he discovers the truth. He also acquires a manservant, William Simms (Jack May.) The three battle against evildoers, with Adam always triumphing; he learns to deal with the modern world, but it never ceases to shock him.
