Inhalt: |
Edward Woodward gives an electrifying performance as a reIuctant professionaI kiIIer working for British lnteIligence.
CaIIan became a national phenomenon in the late 1960s, making Woodward one of the highest profiIe actors on television and paving the way to his eventual career in America on shows Iike The Equalizer.
Created by James MitcheIl (When the Boat Comes ln) and exploring the dingy, twilight world of the professional spy, Callan was the antithesis of the James Bond fiIms (back in the days of Connery and Moore) and presented television's most reaIistic portrayaI, untiI that point, of government espionage.
This set contains the originaI Armchair Theatre pilot play, A Magnum for Schneider, aIong with aII the remaining black and white episodes from series one and two - unseen in nearIy forty years and unavaiIabIe in any format until now. The Worst SoIdier l Ever Saw onIy exists as an unedited recording bIock and has been re-edited into its proper transmission format for this reIease. |
