STIRLING classic noir series. A MASSIVE crime that you can't buy this on DVD and its only currently available on rare VHS formats. Try IOffer. Thanks for the upload.

Brilliant!! I watched this when it was first on television all those years ago and loved it. Thanks so much for posting this, it's been a real trip down Memory Lane for me.

I've got old stuff on video from the 80's but haven't a clue how to upload them.
