Richard Bradford's McGill was the protagonist of ITC's Man in a Suitcase in 1967/1968--he has absolutely nothing to do with The Persuaders! at all. I'm mentioning him in the same breath as Tony simply because they're both examples of Lew Grade's attempt to attract American audiences by casting American leads, and they're both brilliant. :wink: I watched Man in a Suitcase last summer, and just loved it, but it's very different in feel to The Persuaders!--brutal where Persuaders! is light-hearted. Highly recommended, though--Bradford's performance is something to see.

(Oh, and another vote for warts and all on the TMA reprint front).

If it's print on-demand then I'd say go for both - while I'm a purist and want to see the magazines reproduced "warts and all", a "best of" would be of more interest to me right now due to space and money issues!

That's not a bad idea, Franky.

I like Franky's idea too, but would go for the "warts and all" myself.

I can't wait to own this, as I have a patchy collection of them. Thanks Jaz

Two volumes would be great and warts and all! :D
