>> Thanks, Jon. Now, if I only had a dvd player, which people are always after me to get . . . ?

While I have seen it, when it first appeared on television, I'm afraid I remember little about it. (Not even our Amanda's appearance in it. And you'd think, I'd remember that, don't you?) And I'm unlikely to see it on television again, because Len Deighton, upon whose spy trilogy this program was based, was unhappy with the way his books were adapted. But, he likes the film adaptation of "Billion Dollar Brain," another adaptation of his books? There is really no accounting for tastes.

Thank-you, Jon, but not at this time. Maybe, Laura . . .? And then she could give us a review of it. How about it, Laura?
