  • This was the era where being a spy was the epitome of coolness. From the big screen adventures of James Bond to the small screen escapades of "UNCLE", "The Avengers", "Mission: Impossible", "I Spy", "Danger Man" & "The Wild Wild West"

    Spies were seen by the public as smart, sophisicated, daring and brave. Of course the reality of this image would take on a far more darker tone much later on with programs like "Spooks" & "24" which would show just how terrifying the intelligence world really is

  • Old Robert Vaughn as Napoleon Solo was so cool in those days, with that unmistakable 'silky' voice of his! But I gather that it was David McCallum who got the most fan mail. Apparentlly he was given much more of a significant role due to his surprising popularity.

  • Is the dry cleaner the ONLY entrance/exit? Sooner or later, someone is going to notice that a little dry cleaner is getting a great deal of traffic.

  • Illya got Megatron in his hand

  • Is this the Jerry Goldsmith original theme? I only know Lalo Schifrin's take on it

  • @56postoffice You can download it as an MP3 file and convert it to ringtone format.

    Just go to cnet(dot)com and do the proper search for download ytube video as mp3 and the other convert .mp3 to .aac SIMPLE as POWDERING A BABY'S PATOOT!

  • Is it possible to get The Man from U.N.C.L.E. theme music as a cell phone ringtone? BTW, I still have my yellow & black plastic U.N.C.L.E. secret agent badge ( badge #6 ).

  • Well,you may try Amazon.com. They aren't free but very cheap.

  • Does anyone know where i can find full episodes of this show, that are free?

  • Open Channel D

  • Just got here because Gibbs from NCIS said Ducky looked like Illya Kuryakin.

  • has anyone here uploaded the "The Gazebo In The Maze" episode?

  • He GOES and HE DOES ....... oh ILLYA when I was TEN I spent everyday practising in my mirror the LOOK you GIVE in the TITLES ........ MOODY yet FABULOUS ....... Of course I DO KNOW THAT ::::::: your very name:: Mr. Kuryakin is a message to ME ~ Mr. K :::::: PLUS "OPEN CHANNEL D" is obviously CHANNEL DAVED ~ and I DO SO appreciate you leaving me your NUMBER 2 SECURITY TAG when you moved on ..........

  • I always thought this version would be good for a marching band.

  • how cool is the name napoleon solo? these writers were the best

  • @ranchump Ian Fleming named Napoleon, if you can believe it.

  • I HAD THE ILYA KUREAKIN GUN AS A KID.

  • A great 60's tv series I love them being a kid, such a great sountrack also, thanks!

  • United Network Command not Unite!

  • Collected hundreds of bubble gum cards just to get the whole picture of David McCullum on the back.

  • If this show was on TV today, I would watch it every week.

  • There is a scene in an older NCIS episode when Kate asks Jethro what Ducky looked like when he was young. Gibbs replies: "Illya Kuryakin"

  • They where the days, So much fun to watch. Perse.

  • Oh, he is soooo attractive! I was little when I had a crush on him!

  • At least we get the ORIGINAL song! Thanks for this great post!

  • I was an UNCLE agent back then, Solo and Kuryakin were considered loose cannons, nobody wanted to work with them.

    Now I run a tailor shop in NYC.

  • @TheJomogogo A lawyer said he really believed there is a such a thing as uncle because they say they acnledge their cooperation in the closing credits but i dont believe in it maybe you can tell me what THRUSH stands for if your not making this up

  • Definitely there should be a remake of Man from UNCLE. Waverly should be done by Anthony Hopkins. Adrian Pasdar should be Napoleon Solo. Somebody suggested Owen Wilson for Kuryakin. Because of the straight blond hair? But can he do a convincing russian accent? I can't think of anyone else in that role, but Owen Wilson? Probably not.

  • @wschuler77 I HATE all that shit of trying to remake JUST by finding perceived 'lookalikes' ; what's the point ? ; ALL of them have been complete CRAP

  • Ducky !!!

  • wow i forgot all about this show. it was my favorite show as a kid i was watching NCSI and saw and recognised david macallum ;; i waited for the credits to roll to see if it was really him i havent seen him in i suppose its like 40 years i didnt bother to do the math ..its amazing i knew it was him

  • Totally COOL!

    This is the way the CIA , NSA and ALL secret American secret agencies should work.

  • @zengreen7 You serious?

  • @matrix49A

    YES!

  • Somehow, I picture John Hurt playing Waverly in a remake.

  • I picture Wilford Brimley. - lol

  • I remember the uncle toys they have out at the time and we had a Uncle fan club !!!

  • Gotta love the smoke stacks in the opening shot. Property values on Manhattan were considerably lower then.

  • Season 1, Episode 7: The Giuoco Piano Affair

    Original Air Date—10 November 1964

    Solo and Kuryakin pursue Gervaise Ravel and Harold Bufferton, the surviving conspirators of The Quadripartite Affair. To draw them out of hiding, Solo will use Marion Raven as bait and utilize a variation of the Guioco Piano chess gambit to make the operation a success.

  • If I'm right, Jill Ireland, at the time, was Mrs. McCollum.

  • yeah, you are right:

    Hubbies:

    David McCallum (11 May 1957 - 1967) (divorced) 3 children

    The next one was Charles Bronson

  • If I recall correctly, they had a son who O.D'ed.

  • my middle name is illya. my mum told me i was named after the man from uncle. apparrently this was her favourite show back in the day. im 37 now. love ya mum.
