As a Callan fan from when it was first broadcast in the late 60s this was painful for me to watch. The story and dialogue was just too contrived as was the relationship between the original characters. Edward Woodward's almost Shakespearean angst was missing and Lonely's subservience was too contrived. Plus as a major fan of Anthony Valentine so missed his charming malevolence what a tragic loss. Wish in a way I'd not seen it will review my Callan boxset to eradicate it from my mind. If you loved Callan don't watch this. If you've never seen the originals still don't but seek out the TV series.
