Remember Sea Hunt - the TV series that ran in the 1960's and first showed the world just how easy ith was to be a scuba diver. The show features Mike Nelson - played by Lloyd Bridges (later better known for a role in the flying high movies) as the hero who could do just about anything. About half the scenes were shot underwater, although it was not all realistic - apparently his used twin tanks made of balsa fo that he could move. One episode - also starred Leonard Nimoy as the bad guy !

Jeff brought us in a range of grabs from the show !

" What's the use of getting Sober"

" Nanny's Farewell "
