The Adventures of Don Quick is a science fiction comedy television series broadcast from October–December 1970, on ITV. Starring Ian Hendry and Ronald Lacey, six 50 minute episodes were made, shown in a 60 minute time slot. Based on the characters of Don Quixote, astronaut Captain Don Quick and Sergeant Sam Czopanser (i.e. "Sancho Panza") are members of the Intergalactic Maintenance Squad. On each planet they visit, Quick attempts to right imaginary wrongs, often upsetting the inhabitants of whatever society he's in. As of 2008, only the first episode exists, the other five are now missing. A technologically impressive 30 foot model spaceship was built in the studio for the series. However the first three episodes in a primetime slot failed to draw the required ratings so the last three were in a much later slot before the show was cancelled.
Astronaut Don Quick and his sergeant Sam Czopanser land on a planet with two vastly different races: one is technologically advanced and is warlike, addicted to human sacrifices; the others beings of peace and sensitively, living in a dream world. Quick decides to reform them.
Quick and Czopanser arrive on the planet Ophiuchus and leave their rocket in the care of an alcoholic robot.
Our intrepid heroes set foot on Melkion 5, where the population live in 2,000 storey high skyscrapers using the caste system.
Quick and Czopanser encounter a planet populated only by beautiful women. However, the planet holds hidden dangers as an astronaut who landed a generation ago proves, as he is now only six inches tall.
Quick and Czopanser's rocket lands in a live volcano crater. The latter is convinced he's dead and in the afterlife. They meet an assortment of gods who–unknown to them–have made them immune to the heat so they can survive. Therefore, Quick thinks the volcano is not real.
On a planet with many beautiful people and lush vegetation, night and winter have been abolished in this paradise but Quick decides to change a thing or two with disastrous results.
