This is a case for the BISHOP!
Father Unwin appears to be a typical parish priest, but he owns a unique device that can shrink people to a fraction of their normal size.
When the government learns of the "minimizer," they recruit Unwin to their secret B.I.S.H.O.P. program and assign a top-notch agent, Matthew Harding, as his assistant.
Together, they use the minimizer to perform a series of dangerous missions.
Gerry Anderson's (Thunderbirds, Space: 1999) final supermarionation series, THE SECRET SERVICE, combined live action and miniature sequences and drew on the talents of
the legendary British comic and vocal master Stanley Unwin, who voiced the Father in his "Unwinese" double speak. Available in America for the first time ever, this DVD collection
includes all 13 episodes of the unconventional, short-lived series that Anderson regarded as his most charming.
