The Invisible Man (1959)
British tv production which ran for 26 weeks and it's remarkably good. Stories of espionage, bombs, assassinations and so forth set across the globe. At no stage during the run do we get to see the invisible man's features at all and he's credited as playing himself.
The effects are excellent and more or less every single episode is very good with stories that zip along at a gallop with car chases and fisticuffs galore.
Doctor Who fans might be interested that a ten year old Deborah Watling is in the majority of episodes as Peter Brady's niece and she's absolutely adorable with her terrificly humorous and questioning dialogue.
One to keep in the collection as it's a really well made series and comes highly recommended.
The Network dvd is a remastered edition and looks fantastic.
Stills taken from The Rocket in which a wagon carrying a missile is hijacked by villains and Brady has to stop them before they detonate it.
