In 1991, The Diamond Brothers, a six-part television series written and directed by Horowitz himself, was broadcast on ITV. [14] The series is based on the book South by South East, which Horowitz claimed he wrote after he had written the television series, effectively making South by South East a novelisation of the television series rather than the novel acting as the primary source of inspiration. Both McLinden and Dale reprised their respective film roles, which makes the television series act as a sequel to Just Ask for Diamond. However, unlike the film adaptation, the series has never been released on any home media, and it was also never rebroadcast.

Run by husband and wife team Feargus Woods Dunlop and Heather Westwell, their award-winning previous shows include Crimes Against Christmas, Crimes On The Christmas Express, Crimes Under The Sun and Crimes On The Nile. For Christmas 2020, we were over-the-moon to be working with The Core at Corby Cube in association with Imagine Theatre to present a brand new adaptation of the classic family story: The Swiss Family Robinson. I got this book as a gift from one of my cousins, and it kind of intrigued me about what Maltesers had to do with detective work, and then I started reading it. In the end, I enjoyed the book very much. Not only does it provide you with questions that are only answered later on, but the comedy written in the book also entertains a lot, despite being small jokes, or just Tim's idiocy.
