That was one of my 'never-miss' shows back in the day. It was Danger Man here in Canada as well. Great show...that and Sandbaggers.

Sandbaggers was the last really great British cold-war era spy series (and made in my hometown of Leeds). The story behind the show's ending is grimly appropriate as its creator, Ian Mackintosh, who was widely thought to have a background in the intelligence serivices, disappeared in July 1979 when his light aircraft disappeared over the Gulf of Alaska. No wreckage was ever found.

Watched the Man In A Suitcase episode Day of Execution last night. If you haven't seen it, imagine The Saint as portrayed by Marlon Brando. His performance enlivened some dull scripts, but Day of Execution was great on all levels.

Was that the Ian Mackintosh who co-created the brilliant 70s BBC series, 'Warship'? I was in my early teens when it started and I was well and truly hooked on it. must look for it on DVD. I had no idea that he disappeared in mysterious circumstances. How very tragic.

My last TV show I watched was Whose Line is it Anyway. They make me laugh every episode with no disappointments! I'm really excited for the new version that's coming out tonight.
