The Saint	comment	The series started in 1962. Its hero is charming, well-dressed, intelligent, British and ready to fight the bad guys—not to mention played by Roger Moore.We are talking, of course, about The Saint.There was also a successful Radio Drama version made in three series in 1947, 1949, and 1950, starring Vincent Price.Created by Leslie Charteris in a series of books, Simon Templar, nicknamed The Saint (because of his initials), is a world-famous amateur detective who operates as a modern-day Robin Hood. Many episodes of the Moore series adapted short stories and novels from the book series.Aside from providing Moore with his defining pre-007 role (by the time the series came to an end in 1969, Moore was the highest-paid television actor in the world), The Saint was also a significant milestone for Lew Grade and his production company, ITC Entertainment; with 118 episodes, it was outlasted only by The Avengers, and enjoyed enormous success internationally. It has been credited as earning ITC as much as $350 million, and along with the aforementioned Avengers paved the way for ITC's sprawling catalogue of (usually much shorter-lived) adventure and mystery shows, including The Champions, Department S, Jason King, The Baron, Man in a Suitcase and many others.After it finished in 1969, it was followed in 1978 by a revival titled Return of the Saint starring Ian Ogilvy. Virtually identical to the Moore series (right down to the opening narration), except for being set in the late 1970s, the revival lasted a single season. Additional attempts have been made to bring Simon back to TV, the most successful (to a degree) being a series of Australian-made TV movies that were syndicated in North America in the late 1980s.

They're disguised in the stolen tartans of a detachment of Scottish soldiers who were due to take over guard duty, and on handover, are being inspected by the current guard commander. Their disguises are perfect (as befits a regiment known for their punctilious attention to detail), up until the point when the commander notices that they've all placed their sgian-dubh knives in the wrong sock - the right rather than the left.

In 'The Fast Woman', the perp commits a string of these blunders while being interrogated by the Saint & a police inspector. First of all he tells them there's no way that they can get the sniper he hired to testify against him, since he is "a dead man". The Saint's reply? "How did you know he was dead? It wasn't published in the papers." Next up, the perp swears he "wasn't anywhere near Brighton last night" (where the sniper's murder took place). The inspector's reply? "Who said anything about Brighton?". The perp then suggests he knows it happened in Brighton because "Paddy" (another character) must have told him. The Saint's reply? "Paddy? What's he got to do with it? The only reason you know he was there at the shooting was because you - as shooter - saw him there".

The Saint / int_ff7f34c5	comment	Pet the Dog: All the series is this for Simon Templar. If you are the Victim of the Week, Simon Templar will help you completely free of charge, maybe he will accept that you pay for his expenses or, as "The unkind philantrophist", he will accept you to pay for his hotel, but no more than a week.
