That's the first episode I watch from this late UK TV show. Well, it's very entertaining, pleasant at the most, even laughable and sometimes ridiculous. But anyone may watch this TV series without boredom. I only knew the color TV series, made in the seventies, starring David Mac Callum, as far as I remember.
This very episode is not uninteresting, about this man seeking revenge against a political guy who framed him and his family. The characters are not so good, but the directing very well made, so who cares about the rest. It remains a good time waster with,I repeat, no reason at all to avoid it if you have nothing else to do.
I don't know if this was released in France some decades ago. I don't think so.
