Anyone remember this show? It was a 6-parter about an anti-hero who targets rich people for blackmail.
Never seen it, just come across it in old Listener listings. Wondered what it was like. Does it still exist? Is it worth seeing?

I vaguely recall this. Made by ATV and still exists as colour t/rs, according to the Kal guide. I'd like to see it actually; was thinking about it just recently! Was Roy Marsden or Peter Egan in it or am I imagining this (I get these two mixed up)?

Ian Holm starred in it. The show was created and written by
Wilfred Greatorex, creator of the B.B.C. series '1990' ( an
Orwellian view of the future starring Edward Woodward ) and
writer of several 'Danger Man' and 'Man In A Suitcase' episodes.
I remember it as being first-rate, not unlike 'Hine' starring Barrie
Ingham in that it had a right ( expletive deleted ) as the hero. It
wasn't popular with my grandfather, however, who used to storm
angrily out of the lounge as soon as it came on!
