Keef Endersons 2013 list / SF movie adaptations

[Steve Freight]

Star Cops is one of my favourites of the period. I even love the Justin
Hayward theme, and think it would have been better as just a song rather
than a theme tune. There is also some incidental music written by Justin in
the first episode good if you like the moodies. The music does jar a bit
but you can get over that.

Having said that the symmetry of the first 2 murders with the extended
theme works so well imo.  And the conspiracies in the first 3 episodes are
really well thought out - shame about the cardboard cut-out Americans in
their space station.

Enjoy (think it's time I dig out my DVD's again)
