Synopsis:
One of ITV's earliest dramas written specifically for children and a precursor to the development of Doctor Who, Sydney Newman's Pathfinders series is one of the most eagerly awaited archive television releases of all time.

Over three series the Pathfinders journeyed to the Moon and other worlds, proving tremendously successful with the viewing public and even getting into the regional top ten on occasion - unheard of for a children's programme. With intelligent and engaging scripts by Malcolm Hulke and Eric Paice, the Pathfinders faced drama at every turn - from space hazards to Venusian dinosaurs! - and this set contains all three series: Pathfinders in Space, Pathfinders to Mars and Pathfinders to Venus.

Special Features:
- Image Gallery (including behind the scenes images)
- Pathfinders prequel Target Luna script PDFs
- Production booklet by archive television historian Andrew Pixley
