The Champions

AudienceAudience: 7.3

After a plane carrying three secret agents crashes in the Himalayas, they are rescued by a hidden civilisation in Tibet. Their senses and physical and mental abilities are enhanced, and they return to their work with newfound powers they must keep secret.

My take

You may enjoy this if you like vintage spy adventures with a fantastical twist, as in The Man from U.N.C.L.E. Not for you if you prefer consistently believable plots or polished modern television.
