Intriguing, will have a hard time matching the film, not helped by making the lead actor look too much like Michael Caine.

Will probably give it a watch, but it won't match the film characters of Palmer, Ross and Dalby.

Probably know the film line for line, I've seen it so many times. hehe

It looks like a retro "The Professionals" to me. That's a good thing BTW.

The film didn't follow the book too closely - looks like the series will incorporate more elements due to it having a longer running time. Loved the film though - especially the music score. Really hope this is done well - unlike the remake of 'The Prisoner' a few years back!

Rewatched Funeral in Berlin this weekend. Great character. British cinema owned the spy genre back then.
ITV, might give this a try.
