Thank God the BBC didn't make it - they would have wiped it.

Very clever, Dr Goatboy. And very well done; as has already been noted, it really looked like what a BBC-produced t.v. series of TSWCIFTC would look like in the 1960s.

Ya had me goin' there, Doc. The idea of TSWCIFTC starring Richard Burton as a tv series is great fun to play around with. I could see it playin' on PBS during their annual pledge drives. Cudos.

I never knew there was a television program made of this???? Richard Burton played Alec Leamas in the film. Surely someone has cobbled this together (well done if you have, it's done as if it were really made in the 60's!)

There wasn't a tv series, you are right. I was just mesing around & wishing.

@Doctorgoatboy It was adapted by the brilliant Paul Dehn. Missed a trick there. Any chance of a TV adaptation of 'Thunderball'?

[Doctorgoatboy]

@Franks559 I wish I had thought of Paul Dehn!! I am now considering doing a Hitchcockian title sequence for Thunderball as it seems too good to resist. Matching up to Hitchcock though, a big ask.

@Franks559 You did very well. It's a classy credits sequence. Fuck knows the BBC couldn't do it today. Maurice Binder and Robert Brownjohn would be very proud of you. Very 60s. Just ask yourself the question though, how would Saul Bass handle a sixties 'Bond' film if he'd been asked?
