It consisted of ten 25-minute episodes. Eric Flynn, who played the title role, became better known for his work in stage musicals. [1] Other cast members, such as John Franklyn-Robbins, Hugh Walters and Bernard Horsfall, were regulars in British TV classic dramas of the 1960s and 1970s.
The complete series was released on a Region 2 DVD two-disc set in September 2017 by Simply Media.
