does anyone ever remember this wonderful t.v. series?

i remember watching this weekly telly serial many moons back when i was a kid way back in the early 70s and it was great. each episode centred around two astronauts played by the late, sadly missed ian hendry and ronald lacey who'd land on a planet which would be reminiscent of a rubbish dump or a block of flats where it was actually filmed! it obviously played off it's obvious budget constraints and was always funny in an off beat, quirky way. the whole thing was so charming and different that it's always remained etched in my memory ever since. a video/dvd release of this lovable show is long over due!
