Smile The Deadly Affair

Does anybody know why they changed George Smiley's name in this film?

No, but it's odd that the screenplay was done by Paul Dehn who had also done the adaptation of "The Spy Who came in from the Cold" the previous year. In this, Rupert Davies played Smiley and was given the proper name.
