The Saint Bids Diamonds
Prismark1019 November 2023
Turk Abdul Graner (George Murcell) has stolen a priceless diamond from the Louvre. Getting it cut in his villa in the Canary Islands is more difficult.
Joris Van Linden the diamond cutter he has got is an elderly drunk who has the shakes. So he calls an ace diamond over from the USA.
Only George Felson (Ed Bishop) never makes it to Graner's villa. The Saint abducted him at the airport. Templar enters Graner's villa posing as a diamond cutter with knowledge gleaned from Felson.
He gets unexpected help from Christine (Eunice Gayson) the estranged wife of Abdul. She wants to leave him and arranged Van Linden's escape. He might be a drunk but Van Linden still has a trick or two up his sleeve.
Murcell makes for a good bad guy but his goons are a bit useless. Grayson has the knack of finding James Bond's. There are some good twists and it looks like a story adapted from a Charteris novel.
