Moon and Son is a British television astrological crime drama, created and produced by Robert Banks Stewart, that broadcast on BBC One from January 4, 1992.[1]
The series was Martin's first British role in fifteen years, and was considered to be a "rare misfire" for creator Banks Stewart (who described this series as "a light-hearted thriller"),[2] whose previous series Bergerac and Lovejoy had enjoyed significant success on British television.[3]
Despite reports that the BBC had already commissioned a second series prior to the first series being broadcast, only thirteen episodes were made and the series was swiftly axed due to poor ratings, despite airing in a primetime Saturday evening slot.[4] To date, the series has only been repeated once on Satellite TV, and has never been released on DVD.
