The UK BBC TV Show Bugs was a massive success in the late 1990s featuring a team of 3 free-lance surveillance specialists tackling a variety of high-tech criminals. The episodes featured a healthy dose of explosions, surveillance gadgetry and believable futuristic story lines set around many London settings.
The team featured Nick Beckett (played by Jesse Birdsall) as an ex-government operative, Ros Henderson (Jaye Griffiths) as an electronics genius and Ed (Craig McLachlan) as a pilot and daredevil. The series was coupled with an addictive and catchy theme tune that still hasn’t dated.
I know for a fact that there are a number of die-hard Bugs fans out there (because I’m one of them! The TV series sparked off my interest in electronic surveillance, and as a result led me to design a number of surveillance gadgets, run a spy shop and now as the author behind the articles at Spy Review!
I thoroughly recommend Bugs as a note of nostalgia rather than solid action. I can imagine that our American friends might find Bugs a little strange based on the TV shows that they are used to these days. However, a generation of Bugs fans will know what I mean when I say that Bugs was amazing in its day (and still is!)
