Inhalt: |
Edward Woodward gives an electrifying performance as a reluctant professionaI killer working for British lntelligence.
Callan became a nationaI phenomenon in the Iate 1960s, making Woodward one of the highest profile actors on teIevision and paving the way to his eventuaI career in America on shows like The EquaIizer.
Created by James MitchelI (When the Boat Comes ln) and exploring the dingy, twilight world of the professionaI spy, Callan was the antithesis of the James Bond films (back in the days of Connery and Moore) and presented teIevision's most realistic portrayal, until that point, of government espionage.
This set contains the original Armchair Theatre piIot pIay, A Magnum for Schneider, along with all the remaining bIack and white episodes from series one and two - unseen in nearIy forty years and unavailable in any format untiI now. The Worst Soldier l Ever Saw only exists as an unedited recording block and has been re-edited into its proper transmission format for this reIease. |
