Re: The Gentle Touch

I watched these, the memory's hazy but I know I enjoyed them, especially CATS Eyes, all that glamour and big hair, combined with the danger and excitement was a heady mix, that along with Dempsey and Makepeace and Anna Lee made me want to become a Detective

Re: The Gentle Touch

I can appreciate The Gentle Touch now far more than I did when it was originally transmitted. Back then I was far more keen on shows like The Sweeney and The Professionals, and The Gentle Touch seemed bland by comparison. Now, I can see how good the show is, with fine scripts and acting, and it is nice to see it being shown again.
