  • i knew connery , mcgoohan , mccallum was in it didnt realise hartnell was in it ? but what about gordon jackson ( george cowley - professionals ) -noticed him as well ! 

  • They were just about all in it. I saw Alfie Bass there (Bootsie and Snudge) Hudson the butle, Sid James etc..........a sort of helldrive down memory lane...they don't make them like that anymore....my Greek brother in law still drives like that. the last time I was with him the copper who stopped us said he was doing 115 mph. He retorted that he had only been doing 95.....this was on an unlit motorway in Greece with no headlights on the car. I haven't been back.

  • This film has the Doctor, James Bond, Number Six and Ilya Kuryakin. What more can you ask for?

  • I love Patrick since I was six years old and I love him until my death. Forever

  • It's interesting that both Sean Connery and William Hartnell (from Doctor Who) are in this film.

  • @JuanMacready  what kind of a thing is that to say, you must be a bastard.

  • Does anyone know how this movie ended?

  • great old movie

  • @PeterFirthFan hey shit for brains do you have anything good to say about anything.......asshole

  • I like John Drake better than James bond because he is not so stupid and quick to pull out his "pistel"

  • You dont mess with McGoohan! Patrick McGoohan TOPS THEM ALL here! John Drake was 1 billion times better than James Bond!!!!! RIP Patrick.

  • old mcgoohan looks the business in this ,he looks like donyl mcayntyre the investigative tv journo

  • great movie, very interesting to see britain 50 years ago, it's like a time capsule.

  • ... not to forget Stanley Baker, Herbert Lom, Gordon Jackson of "Upstairs, Downstairs" and "The Professionals", and Sid "Carry On" James all sitting around here. What a marvellous cast, and quite an entertaining movie. =)

    Thanks for uploading.

  • This is a great british film full of britishness, unique to the time it was made. nowadays british films have to cast a token american so it will make money over there. If you like this film you will also like the film " The Hill " again a great british film with a fine british cast made in the 60's, it's also in black and white so it feels correct for the era the film is set in, I hope you enjoy...J.

  • Patrick turned down Bond because he didn't want to be that "slick spy always gets the girl and shoots the bad guy" type. He could have been an icon (well, he already IS an icon, but he could have been a "big movie" icon), but he stuck to his guns. I admire him for that.

    (And, in terms of the type of man I find attractive, I'd forever pick John Drake over James Bond, whomore often used his wits than a gun.)

    Admirable man, and admirable actor (nothing against Connery tho, of course. ^___^)

  • damn....

    i was hoping to see john drake kick the crap out of james bond

  • look at 5:40 on 1Rxdn8n1Vsw

  • RIP Pat

  • RIP Patrick

  • Happy birthday Sean! A fun trivia: At the time, like on this movie, there was an expression about Sean. It was "the ritchest man at the poorhouse", a good one, but that no one jumped up and down about.. But that was before Bond.. I think he did good before Bond.. They did not regret their choise of Bond, hehe

  • Ohhh, I want to see that movie! I was in London just for a night (traveling through) in around 2004 and I saw they were showing this along the Thames or something like that. I thought how cool that would have been to have gone. I was way too out of my element and with others to have tried but I'm happy that I saw a clip of it now! Thanks!

  • Patrick Mcgoohan you are the man!!

  • Three spies for the price of one: Patrick "Drake" McGoohan, Sean "Bond" Connery, and David "Kuryakin" McCallum - awesome!

  • stanley baker was mates with eddie richardson (the south london gangster)in the 60's.

  • Pat, here's wishing you a happy new eightieth year .You stuck to your princibles by turning down the role of The Saint and the role of Bond,and I get sick of the sight of Connery,Moore etc kissing the bond girls.Well done! Best wishes Robin from England who's looking forward to March 19,2007,Be seeing you.

  • Amazing how you don't even mention Stanley Baker in your description, even though he was the star of the film.

  • Can't belive it. Someone pushing Bond around.

  • Its Stanley Baker he pushes around, Connery stays seated - They look very alike

  • Your're right. I was looking at the similiar hairstyles. They really do resemble one another.

  • He was in Guns Of Navaronne, died after knifing a German but not good enough to kill him, guess he played the tragic feeling tough guy. Typecast actor.

  • got any more of this film you can upload please

  • id like this film can you tell me what a region-free player is thank you

  • This film is a classic of UK using US drama for it self.

  • Great movie!...one of the reasons I got a region free player...

  • Fantastic early MagGoohan film,the quarrey scene at the end is unforgetable.long live Patrick who,s 79 now.

  • Yeah, this is an awesome flick, but I've not seen it on any channel since (not kidding) about 1980. Fortunately I bought a copy in England years back. It's great to see so many in it who became famous and/or legendary.

  • yes! this has em all in it!!, great stuff, Pat McGoohan RULES!!! wish he was in more films , i got Danger man recently, Bond rips so much of it off.Taaa

  • Ye fergot ta mention Carry On allumnus Sid James...heh heh.

  • If you want to see good filmmaking, see this one. Get a region-free player and head to ebay for the DVD. That's the way I got it. Try to get the special edition with the Stanley Baker interview.

  • id like to get this film can you tell me what a free region player is thank you

  • Basically a DVD player that allows you to play DVD's from any region (they come in a number of different formats from each).

  • Great film, never miss it when it's on tv. Connery, McGoohan and Stanley baker all brilliant actors.

    Wish the British film industry made more films like this today.

  • Not to mention Herbert Lom, David McCallum and Jill Ireland!

  • Not to mention a certain Dr Who actor :) Sean Connery fans should also catch "The Hill".
