#6Riviera Police

Drama Series - 1965, 16 episodes as Inspector Legrand

8.8 / 10

A glossy, bikini-filled police action drama set in the South of France features four main characters played by Noel Trevarthen, Frank Lieberman, Geoffrey Frederick, and Brian Spink. Although these four determined police officers rarely appeared together in the same episode, the show had everything: four handsome policemen, blue skies, a stunning backdrop of the Côte d'Azur, major crime, and numerous bikini-clad starlets. There was plenty of time for chatting up women on the beach in between chasing villains.

4.0 / 10
TV MovieDramaHistory

1984 was not a leap into the future-but a look at the dangers already present-in Orwell's lifetime. The Road to 1984 intertwines vision and reality. It displays the passion and chronicles the career of Orwell--who warned us of what could happen if we stayed on that road--his road to 1948 and ours to 1984.
