[[File:adamant.jpg|frame]]
A British series in the 1960's, which featured a Victorian adventurer frozen and returned to life in the present day. The show was originally planned to use the actual Victorian character Sexton Blake, but the BBC could not get the rights to use the character this way (although they did a Blake radio show wothwith a normal setting) and a new name, Adam Adamant was chosen.
 
Betrayed by the woman Louise in 1902 to his archenemy The Face, Adamant is frozen and not resuscitated until 1966. He escapes the hospital and is overwhelmed by the sights of the city. He meets and helps Georgina Jones, who is a fan of his, and who constantly becomes embroiled in adventures. Adamant's home base is his old home rebuilt--on top of the upper floor of a car park (parking lot to Americans).
