Man in a Suitcase: The Whisper (1.16, ITC, 1968)
"McGill! Don't be contemptuous, nor disbelieve me. I do know things. Be careful! I see death when I look at you... walking by your side."
"Oh, well don't worry about him, sir, we're old friends."
#man in a suitcase#the whisper#itc#classic tv#1968#charles crichton#morris farhi#richard bradford#patrick allen#colin blakely#sheila brennan#clifton jones#wallas eaton#patrick jordan#jerold wells#brian hawksley#didi perego#tommy ansah#michael williamson#dick offord#another somewhat challenging episode... there's enough depth to the central character study of Blakely's priest here‚ and the plot is#honestly rich enough‚ to stand a full film treatment‚ perhaps even a novel. it's wonderfully mature and probing television of a kind itc#rarely bothered with; unfortunately it's also problematic in its handling of race and its treatment of Africa. the attitude towards the#african characters is largely condescending (with a beautifully measured performance from Clifton Jones the exception) and the character#responses are tricky. Pat Allen's plantation owner is of course an ignorant and repugnant racist with white supremacist assumptions but it#takes McGill WAY too long to actually react to that (and by extension‚ perhaps‚ it takes the script too long also). he gets a brief#broadly anti colonial monologue at the end of the ep‚ but there's little to show he truly appreciates the issues; nor is there ever any#evidence that his opinion is ever influenced by the black characters around him‚ instead his railing against Allen seems to come as much#from his own personal dislike of the man and his growing understanding of Blakely as he is now (and not as he was in the files and reports)#Bradford‚ incidentally‚ was delighted to find Blakely had been cast in the series again‚ and writer Farhi was similarly starstruck

- Do you really believe in the perfect murder? - Yes, absolutely. On paper, that is. And I think I could plan one better than most people. But I doubt if I could carry it out. - Why not? - Well, because in stories things usually turn out the way the author wants them to and in real life they don't... always. No, I'm afraid my murders would be something like my bridge: I'd make some stupid mistake and never realize it until I found everybody was looking at me.
Dial M for Murder, Alfred Hitchcock (1954)

Very different from my usual style. I have trouble not over-rendering shit so I tried a simpler art style, based off the Red Flags music video

The Saint: The Man Who Could Not Die (4.6, ITC, 1965)
"I'm pretty good with a shotgun. I'll give you some pointers."
"Simon has quite a reputation as a marksman, Miles."
"Well I'm sure I'm not in Mr. Hallin's class."
"You're too modest."
"It's time one of us was."
#the saint#the man who could not die#itc#1965#leslie charteris#terry nation#roger moore#patrick allen#jennie linden#robin phillips#richard stapley#ivor dean#meredith edwards#mary jones#another Moore directing job‚ and once again he seems to have chosen a high cost production episode to helm. Pat Allen is the guest of the#week‚ a victim of blackmail but also (SPOILER) the bad guy! viewers would have been familiar with Pat by this point in his career; he'd#just finished his final series in Crane earlier in the year‚ a proposed filler programme for Associated Rediffusion that proved so popular#that it ran for three years. after some dilly dallying in London‚ it's off to North Wales for a spot of weekend sport and to my (pleasant)#surprise‚ the production team actually went to the trouble of casting real Welsh actors! there's only two of them mind (actually it's a#fairly small cast altogether‚ perhaps saving some of the money spent on caves). Meredith Edwards was even an actual North Walian! and#better still‚ he actually throws a couple of lines in welsh in! (and i understood him; he stuck to the script and didn't take the#opportunity to be a bit naughty). much of the second half of the episode is spent in the Ogof y Ddraig caves; incidentally there does exist#a real Ogof y Ddraig (Dragon's cave) in North Wales‚ but it's a sea cave off Anglesey‚ not the inland system of caves depicted here#caves is a dangerous route for old tv: it's surprisingly difficult to make rocks look real‚ particularly if they have to fall or be climbed#despite what some slightly mean critics have said on imdb‚ The Saint team actually did a very impressive job. if individual rocks look a#little suspect‚ so be it‚ but the sheer scale of the rock faces they knocked up is to be applauded. this episode would have aired just a#few weeks before Linden could be seen in the first big screen Doctor Who outing (which also had Terry Nation connections of course..)
