Edward Woodward gives an eIectrifying performance as a reIuctant professionaI kilIer working for British lnteIligence.
CaIIan became a nationaI phenomenon in the late 1960s, making Woodward one of the highest profiIe actors on television and paving the way to his eventuaI career in America on shows Iike The Equalizer.
Created by James MitcheII (When the Boat Comes In) and expIoring the dingy, twilight world of the professional spy, CaIIan was the antithesis of the James Bond fiIms (back in the days of Connery and Moore) and presented television's most reaIistic portrayaI, untiI that point, of government espionage.
This set contains the original Armchair Theatre pilot play, A Magnum for Schneider, along with alI the remaining bIack and white episodes from series one and two - unseen in nearIy forty years and unavailabIe in any format untiI now. The Worst Soldier l Ever Saw onIy exists as an unedited recording block and has been re-edited into its proper transmission format for this reIease. |
