I was glued to this back in the day as a teenager, such world of difference to James Bond and more realistic. Closer in feel the 'The Spy Who Came in From the Cold' than 'Dr No' Edward Woodward was perfect in the roll as was Anthony Valentine as the obnoxious Toby Meres, he did nasty so well, see Secret Army as well.
Full marks to Talking Pictures who recently ran all the color episodes but only a few from the B&W years. They told me they could only get the rights to some of them. However all remaining episodes are available on DVD from Network.
The picture quality of this episode as other reviewers have stated is not good being a tele recording so one star off for that otherwise a classic.
