    From Network
    runaway success for ITC in the 1960s, Danger Man originally started as a halfhour series before hitting its stride with a transition to the fifty-minute format. This set contains all 47 fifty-minute shows (the last two in colour), charting the exploits of John Drake – an exemplary agent for British Intelligence who is sent into situations too tricky or dangerous for normal spies to undertake. McGoohan’s simmering, compelling erformance catapulted him into movies and paved the way for his undeniable tour de force – The Prisoner.



    Danger Man features intriguing stories from top writers such as Ralph Smart, Donald Jonson, Philip Broadley and Tony Williamson, complemented by direction from

    stalwarts of the filmed action series genre such as Charles Crichton, Michael Truman, Peter Yates, Don Chaffey and even McGoohan himself. Showcasing all the hallmarks of the very best filmed ITC series, Danger Man features exceptional performances rom guest stars such as Ian Hendry, Dawn Addams, Virginia Maskell, Warren Mitchell, Sylvia Syms, Glyn Owen and Donald Houston.

    • Feature-length version of Koroshi

    • Extensive image gallery accompanied by a suite of Edwin Astley’s incidental music

    Thanks for the heads-up Captain. I'd always hesitated until now due to cost. This is indeed a bargain.

    This did go below £17 earlier this year (at The Hut) so it might be worth hanging on further, though I doubt it'll go quite that low again for a while.

    It is a fabulous set and at that price a must, IMHO far superior to the Region 1 set
