The Saint: The Russian Prisoner (5.3, ITC, 1966)

"This is not a joke! I am very angry."

"Well, you could have fooled me."

"I warn you! If any of our diplomatically immune guests press charges..."

"You'll put me in jail?"

"With the greatest of pleasure."

After two original scripts we're back to an actual Charteris adaptation‚ from a short story by the same #name. it's an educated guess‚ but given the wealth of bts photos available and some other small clues i suspect this may have been the #first colour episode to go into production. it's a fun one too! Simon gets to have a lot of fun playing adventurer in a cold war set up #and has some killer lines and moments (including a flippant attempt at passing himself off as a Swiss naval commander). Deghy's inspector #kleinhaus is in fact a returning character (from all the way back in 1.5 The Loaded Tourist‚ making this surely the longest gap in the #series between a character's appearances) altho he's much less trusting of Simon here (what happened in those intervening years..) #still it's a nice bit of continuity. lovely lovely Sandor Elès had played a very similar character in a previous ep as a hotel receptionist #but unless he was transferred from Paris to Geneva they aren't the same character..

The ground-breaking Thames Television sitcom Man About the House was first broadcast this month (August), in 1973. It was written by Johnnie Mortimer and Brian Cooke, and ran for 39 episodes over six series.

It was adapted in the US as Three's Company, and also spawned equally successful spinoff series in the UK; George and Mildred and Robin's Nest.

There was a feature film of Man About the House in 1974, and stage and cinema adaptions of George and Mildred.

Yootha Joyce passed away in 1980, just weeks after the release of the George and Mildred feature film.

Richard O'Sullivan reprised his character Robin Tripp for the sequel, Robin's Nest, also starring David Kelly, Tessa Wyatt and Tony Britton.

Robin's Nest (1977-81) was the first sitcom to feature a couple living (and obviously sleeping) together but unmarried, in what was known as a 'common law marriage'. Special permission had to be obtained from the Independent Broadcasting Authority before the show was commissioned.

The fabulous Yootha Joyce as Mildred Roper, wearing  one of my favourite  items of her clothing..Banana patterned flares.Yootha is a Maori word, or in an Australian Aborigine language,  meaning "JOY"

[abriefingwithmichael]

“Man About the House” 18 (1974)

Yootha Joyce has all the best lines, and gets all the biggest laughs with her impeccable delivery.

Richard O'Sullivan isn't the focus here, for a change, but his chemistry and charisma are such that you are always watching him anyways, no matter what's going on.

8/10

"GEORGE Y MILDRED"

Fue una afamada sitcom británica de los años 70, producida por la Thames Television, sobre un matrimonio mal avenido, George y Mildred Roper, interpretados por los actores Brian Murphy y Yootha Joyce. Ambos personajes aparecieron inicialmente en la comedia Un hombre en casa, también de la Thames Television, de la cual George y Mildred fue un exitoso spin-off.

La popularidad de estas dos comedias propició las adaptaciones en los Estados Unidos de George y Mildred como Los Roper, secuela a su vez de Apartamento para tres, el equivalente de Un hombre en casa, que tuvieron gran aceptación por parte de los telespectadores.

La serie fue inicialmente emitida en su país de origen por la cadena de televisión ITV entre los años 1976 y 1979, y aún hoy son frecuentes las reposiciones de todas estas series en las programaciones de muchas televisiones de todo el mundo.

Play of the Month: Maigret at Bay (BBC, 1969)

"You've been in the police service a long time, Monsieur Maigret."

"Since I was 22, Monsieur le Prefet."

"So long? And your duties have taken you widely."

"Oh, the Metro, stations, the big stores, vice, gambling."

"And now you're a division commissaire."

"Yes."

"Within five years of retirement."

"And three days."

"In 28 years you must have seen many changes in methods, procedures?"

"The criminals haven't changed."

"And you, like them, prefer to keep to the old ways as well?"

"They work."

Maigret at Bay had actually been announced as the inaugural play when the anthology was first #announced in 1964‚ but contractual issues with Simenon and Davies stage commitments had conspired to delay the production. it would take #another 5 years before everything came together and filming could be completed. it was an unusual choice for a strand which largely adapted #classic novels and plays by the likes of Arthur Miller‚ H. G. Wells‚ Somerset Maugham and Shakespeare. it perhaps speaks to the high regard #in which the series had been held (it had been heavily repeated in the intervening years). whatever the motivation‚ the result is that #rarest of things; a fitting coda to a beloved series. an obvious labour of love‚ the production team reunited leads Davies‚ Shingler and #Jason (Ewen Solon was sadly unavailable) with key crew members (excepting chief writer Giles Cooper‚ who had tragically died in 1966) #the sets for Maigret's office and home were recreated faithfully‚ extensive location work carried out in Paris and there is even a truly #delightful acknowledgement of the original series opening titles‚ as Maigret strikes a match on a wall to light his pipe at the beginning. #it can honestly be rare to find this kind of care and clear respect in a belated reunion to a previous series‚ but this is really probably #the very best ending the show could have hoped for: an older Maigret‚ approaching retirement‚ out of step with new superiors but as capable #and as brilliant as ever. a very worthy final outing. Davies never ruled out a return but it wasn't to be; so farewell‚ Insp Maigret
