Inspector Spacetime

Inspector Spacetime is a British Sci-fi show which started on ITV in 1962. It follows the adventures of an alien inspector, a member of the species the Space Peasants, a species which has a society founded by three people, Rassyouloff, Alpha and the Same, who travels around the universe in a SIDRAT, a machine which looks like a red telephone box. Thus-far, the Inspector has been played by 14 people, due to a process known as 'degeneration' which may be linked to the Space Peasants lack of having a heart, or a brain. They come from the planet Dudeyoufrey, a planet with no sun.
The enemies which turn up the most are the Amateur, another Space Peasant whom the Inspector finds so repulsive they would never marry them, and the Lhats, mutants from the planet Karso, who try to wipe out the Kaleds. It was revealed in Extermination of the Lhats that they were once the Thals.
The Amateur was first played by Reginald Delgadon't, and then by Pete Clever, Jeff Cubs, Leon Ny Taiy, Evict Copberts, Dirk Jacobs, Jonathot Simms, Youshell Gomez and Sacha Darwin.
Space Peasants are created via a process called 'giving birth'. They are formed inside one parent's 'womb' and then expelled from the body. This is disgusting and we do not know why they don't use looms like any sensible person would.
With the exception of English actors Sylv McForward and Pete Hatmorrisons, all the Inspectors have been played by Scottish actors.
The show was created by Melbourne Oldman, Warren Whatmad and Hardlyty Wolfdave
