RTA026 - Episode 26 - 'Wacky Races', 'Star Cops' & 'The Rivals Of Sherlock Holmes'

Episode 26 sees us return to the world of 'Jack The Ripper', this time concentrating on the 1988 version starring Michael Caine with a brief look at the surviving material from the original production that would have starred Barry Foster. We then motor on to get involved in the 'Wacky Races' as Dick Dastardly and his side-kick Muttley get up to all sorts of dirty cartoon tricks, but still fail to pass the finishing line first. Martin springs into orbit to investigate crime in space as he takes a look at 'An Instinct For Murder', the first episode of 'Star Cops' from 1987. To round off we meet one of 'The Rivals Of Sherlock Holmes' as Jonathan Pryde tackles 'The Case Of The Dixon Torpedo' from 1971.
