I thought I remembered the name of the flick as being noted as "With Rapiers Flashing" on the TV schedule at the time, which seems a highly unlikely title,
I was glued to the TV when it was first on and got the DVD a few years ago so I could see the last episode which I never seen due to problems with the BBC broadcast.
