MAIN STORY
The series premiered in 1950.

The series' two - unusually serious - main characters fight international crime in a science fiction-like universe, but they have their base in London, England. They are quite different: The moustaced Francis Percy Blake is an officer in the British army and acts as the straight man, who often has to rescue the bearded Philip Angus Mortimer, a professor, who occasionally acts quite impulsively.
