Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Adam Adamant Lives! was The BBC's answer to The Avengers (1960s), but less successful. Produced in black and white, it ran for two seasons from 1966 to 1967. Repeats have been rare, but BBC 4 now shows the occasional episode. All of the surviving episodes were released on DVD in 2006, with script PDFs for the missing ones.In the pilot, the eponymous Edwardian gentleman adventurer (played by Gerald Harper) was betrayed by his fiancee Louise and frozen in a block of ice by his nemesis The Face. 64 years later he was dug up by some workmen and thawed out, not much the worse for wear but very disoriented. Georgina Jones (Juliet Harmer), a swinging chick and dedicated Adamant fan, found him wandering around central London and took him home. Saving her from a murderous protection racket was his first step in resuming his adventuring career.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })Subsequent episodes established more of a formula. Either Adam or Georgina would stumble upon a plot, usually involving some technofantasy element (clothes that kill their wearers, washing powder with an addictive scent, etc.). Adam would forbid Georgina to investigate, but she would anyway. Then he would have to rescue her as well as solving the case. In some of the stories they would solve it together. In episode 2 Adam employed a former seaside entertainer William Simms (Jack May) as a valet. One of the show's highlights was the constant bickering between Simms and Georgina.There was never much romance between the two leads. Georgina hero-worshiped Adam to the point of stalking him (in one episode she followed him all the way to Japan and disguised herself as a geisha to get near him), but his attitude to her was always more paternal. He would, however, frequently be attracted to female villains. His blind spot was that he could never believe a woman to be capable of evil, no matter how many evil women he met.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_3'); })The series was produced by Verity Lambert. In late 1969 it would become a significant influence on her earlier series Doctor Who when the third Doctor, Jon Pertwee, would also become a dashing man-out-of-time with a taste for velvet and capes. In 2019 Big Finish (famous for their Doctor Who audio dramas) announced a Continuity Reboot of the series set to be released in January 2020.

comment
Single Woman Seeks Good Man: The fandom. Gerald Harper (not a bad looker, by the way) received fanmail from women who pretty much all commented and gushed about Adam's courtesy and respect towards women, one woman commenting that she'd be all over her boyfriend if he acted like Adam. He even got sent letters about Adam from boyfriends of female fans, some complaining that now their girlfriends expected them to act like him (and some thanking Harper for playing Adam because it inspired them to continue to be or start to be a gentleman.)

The Ghost
 Adam Adamant Lives! / int_1ba17583
comment
The Ghost: The Face. Adam's Arch-Enemy remains a constant presence in his mind, to the point were Adam imagines constant conversations between the two. He did not seem to get transported with Adamant to the ’60s and there is just as much ambiguity of his existence as Adam's identity. The man at Volume 1's Cliffhanger, he's not the original Face and is just a disgraced psychiatrist who took the identity in a twisted Replacement Goldfish scheme.

Ambiguous Situation: Unlike the original, it is not entirely clear how Adam Adamant got transported to the ’60s. The first episode opens with a confused and delirious Adamant getting hit by a car and he can’t remember how he got there. There is even the possibility that he is actually a VERY delusional man and is not actually Adam Adamant.

Villainous Incest: Played with in "The Doomsday Plan". When Doctor Mort's daughter kisses him in a most un-daughterly fashion, Adam is clearly shocked and objects that he is is her father. The girl then laughs and says she is not really his daughter, but that she just plays the role as the public has expectations.

Once an Episode: In most of the first series episodes, whenever Adam is knocked out we see a montage of his original defeat and hear Louise saying "So clever, but oh, so vulnerable... so vulnerable..." Many episodes also include a scene where Simms composes a limerick by way of comment on the situation (all of which were written by Dick Vosburgh). Also, almost every episode ends with Georgina running after Adam yelling for him to wait for her.

comment
Bunny-Ears Lawyer: Adam is effectively from a different culture, was quirky for his time, is very old-fashioned in many ways, obsesses over finding furniture that belonged to his family, and wears old-fashioned clothes and an opera cape. Most people look at him a little strangely and wonder if he is as effective as claimed.

comment
Loony Fan: Georgina grew up on stories of Adam and constantly stalks him, barges into his house, messes about in his adventures. Adam is initially annoyed and disturbed (especially at her not respecting his privacy), but since the other is the closest thing to family they have, he comes to look on her as something of an annoying little sister who just waltzes into his house as a matter of course (not that he doesn't try to shoo her out as one might any sibling who oversteps bounds).

Forgot About His Powers: Adam's intelligence quotient, perception, and many of his skills seem to frequently increase or decrease as the plot demands; something he didn't fall for in a previous episode, he falls for in another, especially when it comes to suspecting women.

Adaptation Personality Change: Rather than being a Loony Fan Georgina Jones is an Everyman sort of character who is more of a fan of the Edwardian time period in general rather than just Adamant, with dreams of one day becoming a writer. Adam himself is more or less the same as the original, but is a bit of a Stepford Smiler and doesn’t share his classic counterpart’s blind spot regarding women.

Femme Fatale
 Adam Adamant Lives! / int_90b66e22
comment
Femme Fatale: Initially, Louise with The Face. Also applies to almost all of the women Adam meets in the sixties, with the exception of Georgina. His belief in the purity of womanhood, despite Louise's betrayal, always allows them to get the better of him. Double Subverted in "Death By Appointment Only". Simms and Georgie are both fretting that Adam has fallen into the clutches of a ruthless, sophisticated woman and she'll surely kill him. They try frantically to get in contact with him and warn him, to no avail. Just as they give up hope, Adam strolls in: he saw right through his would-be assassin and outwitted her with contemptuous ease. Then, later in the episode, he turns his back on the woman's employer (another Femme Fatale) allowing her to knock him out and regain the advantage.

comment
Double Subverted in "Death By Appointment Only". Simms and Georgie are both fretting that Adam has fallen into the clutches of a ruthless, sophisticated woman and she'll surely kill him. They try frantically to get in contact with him and warn him, to no avail. Just as they give up hope, Adam strolls in: he saw right through his would-be assassin and outwitted her with contemptuous ease. Then, later in the episode, he turns his back on the woman's employer (another Femme Fatale) allowing her to knock him out and regain the advantage.

You're Insane!: Adam, to the villain of "Beauty, is an Ugly Word": "You do realize that you are completely insane?" He is promptly proved right, as, shortly afterward, the villain has reached the point of claiming that A God He Is.

Cat Fight: The Designated Girl Fight in "The Terribly Happy Embalmers" verges on one, particularly since one combatant is in her underwear at the time.

Hollywood Satanism

comment
Hollywood Satanism: In "The Last Sacrifice", Adam battles a British lord who is running a satanist cult complete with hooded robes, orgies, and human sacrifice. He is mostly using it as a source of blackmail, but Adam mentions that his family has a history of satanism cropping up every third generation.

Innocent Bigot: While Adam was pretty advanced for his time and class, he still holds many prejudices and negative attitudes of his time and upbringing.

comment
Good Old Ways: Adam sticks to his courtesy, old-fashioned dress sense, and considers his time to have been more genteel era (however, he does make some concessions of approval concerning the '60s, like that prejudice is less and the class system is not so tightly stratified).

The Future Is Shocking: In "A Vintage Year for Scoundrels", one of the first things that happens to Edwardian adventurer Adam when he awakes in the swinging Sixties is that he stumbles into the London Underground where he is confronted by billboards advertising lingerie.
