Sydney Fox is a professor but primarily a globe-trotting "relic hunter,"
looking for ancient artifacts to return to museums and/or the ancestors of
the original owner. She's aided by her linguistic assistant Nigel, and
occasionally by her somewhat air-headed secretary Claudia. She often ends
up battling rival hunters seeking out artifacts for the money.
Professor Sydney Fox is head of the archeology department at Chicago
University. She can inspire her students very well, but is often absent on
short notice, unable to resist the call of the field, which is however
tolerated because it can pay off big for the university's museum as she's a
world-class relic hunter. Her scholarly brilliant English academic
assistant, Nigel Bailey, has his reservations about being dragged along all
over the world on most of her treasure hunts, but puts up with the risks
and inconveniences of the guests out of a sense of duty and because of the
appeal the athletic lady adventurer seems to have on most men in the
series. The third permanent cast member is their office secretary, during
most seasons vain airhead Claudia whose rich father is frightfully
well-connected, notably with the chancellor, later the far more competent
Karen Petrusky; both usually stay in college, minding things there and
doing some research, booking etcetera, but on occasion also get to play a
more active part, and in both cases tend to make use of their female charms
too. While each episode is a treasure hunt on its own, some other
characters recur twice or more, mainly rival relic hunters and/or personal
acquaintances, such as Sydney's many former lovers, a secret agent and
Nigel's brother.
