From sci-fi legend Gerry Anderson (Space 1999, Thunderbirds, UFO), this special-effects-filled series chronicles the adventures of two cops from Earth battling a rogue’s gallery of alien criminals in the year 2040. Transferred from the mean streets of New York City to a teeming alien planet halfway across the galaxy, veteran police detective Patrick Brogan (Ted Shackelford, Dallas) and his rookie partner (Rob Youngblood, NYPD Blue, Sliders) struggle to adapt to their exotic new beat. Tangling with otherworldly outlaws in one deadly close encounter after another, the officers fight to bring intergalactic law and order to a mind-bending realm where the bad guy’s aren’t just bad… they aren’t even human!

FROM IMAGE ENTERTAINMENT: LAW AND ORDER BEYOND ALL EARTHLY BORDERS!

GERRY ANDERSON’S SPACE PRECINCT: The Complete Series Landing on DVD and Digital Download November 23 CHATSWORTH, CA – Welcome to Demeter City. It has all the “qualities” of a modern city: population crowding, traffic problems, a soaring crime rate. It is also half way across the galaxy. On November 23 Image Entertainment presents sci-fi legend Gerry Anderson’s (“Space 1999,” “Thunderbirds,” “UFO”) Space Precinct: The Complete Series -- the chronicles of two cops battling the cosmic criminals that menace their new world. Gerry Anderson, a holder of the M.B.E. (Member of the Order of the British Empire) for his services to Animation, displays his unique talents here, with the use of complex make-up techniques, special effects and puppetry. Alien offenders never looked so real!

This 5-DVD set presents all 24 episodes of the series, and will be available at an SRP of $49.98 and will also be available via digital download. Pre-book is October 26th.

Lieutenant Patrick Brogan (Ted Shackelford – “Dallas”, “Dirty Sexy Money”), a veteran of New York’s mean streets, and his rookie partner Officer Jack Haldane (Rob Youngblood – “NYPD Blue”, “Sliders”) have a new beat. They have been transferred to the planet Altor, where it is their job to protect the law-abiding citizens of Demeter City. Lost amongst planetary felons, galactic gangs…all the debris of criminal constellations…it is their job to investigate crimes committed by aliens as well as humans.

Also starring Simone Bendix (“The Inspector Lynley Mysteries”) and Jerome Willis (Perfume: The Story of a Murderer), and with directors such as John Glen (For Your Eyes Only, Octopussy, A View to a Kill) and Sidney Hayers (“Magnum P.I.”, “Remington Steele”, “The A Team”) at the helm, Space Precinct is a thrilling, otherworldly ride through an unruly universe.

A Press Junket to Demeter City 

Today's exhibit is from the press screening to launch the Space Precinct series in 1994.

Below is a Sky Television Press Launch Bus Ticket Holder. Members of the press were transported from Central London to Pinewood Studios for a special presentation and screening.

Note the name “Intergalactic”; the trading name of the Demeter City Intergalactic Bus Corporation. Everything for this press day was done as if the members of the press were travelling to Demeter

Below: Sky Television Press Launch Bus Ticket. This image shows the three sides that made up the Bus Ticket / Press Launch Invitation. Read the small print on each side, it’s fascinating!

Sky Television Press Launch. Sent with each Press Invitation was fare for the bus, a Demeter City 50 Credits Bank Note. The episode screened for the press was “Predator and Prey”. Black spaghetti was served to the press for lunch to give the impression of being an alien meal!
