  58. John Drake is a special operative for NATO, specializing in security assignments against any subversive element which threatened world peace. The series featured exotic locales from all over the world, as his assignments frequently took him to Africa, Latin America, and the Far East.
  59. I think the &quot;Danger Man&quot; series I remember, with its distinctive racy theme tune, was the later hour-long remake series from 1964 onwards, which would fit in with my own youthful time-line I suppose. Hunting down the show on the web I came across the first episode from 1960 entitled &quot;The View From The Villa&quot;, which I was interested to see was co-written by the great Brian Clemens of future &quot;The Avengers&quot; fame.<br/><br/>This episode contained a neat little mystery taking in a murder, the city of Rome, and an enigmatic femme fatale which Patrick McGoohan&#39;s John Drake solves with his eye for a painting, all in a brisk 25 minute time-frame. The show, unlike its successor, is pre-Bond so there are no gadgets and there&#39;s also an icy detachment from the glamorous and flirtatious ladies he encounters which 007 would never countenance.<br/><br/>No, Drake is there simply to get the job done, which he does with steely aplomb, dispensing what might have been an early catchphrase &quot;Obliged&quot; as he does so. He&#39;s handy with his dukes too, but again not in a flashy or contrived way.<br/><br/>McGoohan strolls through the part with laconic ease and as well as elements of the early Bond, you can also see the genesis of Roger Moore&#39;s Simon Templar character here, the latter of course with added humour, suavity and raised eyebrow. <br/><br/>I&#39;ll certainly make an effort to try to watch more of this entertaining series, confident it will retain the standard of this opening programme.
  60. In the &quot;View from the Villa&quot; agent John Drake pulls up in what looks like an Aston Martin DB4 or DB5, thus beating Sean Connery to the punch by several years. At least on the screen. I think it also appears in a few other episodes, but I am not certain.<br/><br/>I have spent the last few years slowly catching up on this superb series via net flicks. As other reviewers have noted already the plots were nearly always excellent. The understatement and laconic delivery of Mr. McGoohan a foretelling of others who would try the same style and mostly fail, except for the wonderful Le Carre adaptions, and Mr. Caine&#39;s superb Ipcress File. The satire of Establishment figures was often very droll. <br/><br/>In the current editions I am getting from Netflicks the music track is provided by a powerful jazz orchestra. What happened to the superb Harpsichord jazz music that I remember from the original UK broadcasts? So much more subtle and intriguing than the blaring band arrangement, although it does have a period flavor I cant deny.<br/><br/>Mr. McGoohan passed away recently. I will remember him and Danger Man as one of the very influential forces in my teenage years.
